I genuinely believe that the exact moment of a wholesale moral collapse of an already degraded society was captured when Kinga masturbated with a wine bottle just to court attention on Big Brother to a general shrug of indifference.

We can’t *say* China are β€˜the baddies’ because we are dependent on them in so many fields.

If PM had intervened Badenoch would be complaining that the independence of the DPP had been compromised. PM did absolutely the right thing. Case collapsed precisely as he explained - on the Tories watch, because of their failure to update legislation. LoTO should be apologising. Not doubling down.

The simple fact is that the Government is going to have to find a way of rebuilding local government finances systematically. The decay of public realm and social infrastructure is deeply corrosive of public trust. Everyday, people can see the state not working all around them.

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now.

Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

My new t-shirt. A celebration of β€˜the yellow handbag’. A bit niche. Actually no, it should strike a chords with hundreds of thousands of people. #Herfy #Brats #BAOR #BFPO

Thomas Tuchel looks like he should be stood vaping next to an under-sized BMX bike outside the offy asking people to buy him booze as he is banned. #England

Hannah Arendt distinguished totalitarianism β€œfrom other forms of political oppression known to us such as despotism, tyranny and dictatorship” in that totalitarianism seeks to subjugate civil society and private lives, not just political opponents, using psychological, not just physical, repression.

The only question everyone was asking after #Twisterella was: "Did you see PISS?" Uncomfortable. Uncompromising. Confrontational. Challenging. Loud. Painfully so. It was an agit-pop punishment beating. No one is going to forget it in a hurry that's for sure.

Adult DVD. Four keyboards driving an industrial funk Happy Mondays vibed dance sound. Six of them. I can’t believe they all squeezed onto the Town House stage last time. #Twisterella

Punchbag. Excellent. High energy, entertaining singalong pop-punk played for laughs. She took total control of the stage and everyone had great fun. Reminded me the Lauren Hibbard set a few years back. Wonderful stuff. #Twisterella

Y. Throbbing piledriver rhythm section peppered with swirling guitar and sax. Not really rock. Or dance. Falling between a few stools. And they go on a bit. #Twisterella

Irked. Fast-forward fragments of power punk with added Faye Fife Rezillos energy. Ace. #Twisterella

Being screamed at in the middle of a heavy-duty construction site. Last time it watched anything this noisy Test Department were taking a pneumatic drill to the stage and whacking metal with sledgehammers. #Twisterella

Confrontational Vancouver band PISS issued a pre-gig trigger warning for explicit content and ear-splitting volume then dished out free ear plugs. They were needed. #Twisterella
