It’s hard to see why any of these MPs choose to stay in the party. I get the feeling that Labour would welcome Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson over any of them.

Agreed, I wish they would go over to the Green Party 🤞🏿

And this is one of the things I don’t understand about Labour, you clearly don’t want the socialist/left side in your party and yet condemn people of that persuasion who have stopped voting for you 🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️

I would like to remember more which locker I’ve used at the gym especially as I’ve got a generic looking padlock 🤦🏿

Powerful 👏🏿

Is it sectarian when Reform talk about Judeo-Christian heritage? Is it divisive when Starmer talks about becoming an island of strangers? Is voting on religious lines an issue when Kemi declares her ethnic emnity towards Nigerian Muslims? It is weird to be so fixated on this discussion suddenly!

The video was sublime too youtu.be/WHRnvjCkTsw?...

Without a doubt one of my favourite hip hop songs ever. It never gets old 🔥🔥🔥

Oh Geri, this is painful #totp

I’m struggling to understand what difference it would make to the Reform vote. Do they really think that they have lost potential Muslim votes because of family coercion and not because their Islamophobia?

A lot of people don’t even have a clue who their local MP is. It wouldn’t surprise me if some had a final check before they made their mark.

You might have been thinking of Chippenham in Wiltshire.

That line wasn’t from him, the host said it.

What happened is that the BBC and BAFTA mismanaged the situation, it should be obvious to anyone with common sense.,

No, their own mishandling of the situation.

Socialists?

I’m blown away by the ticket prices. An advance ticket would have cost me just over two weeks wages at the time. Now when you consider that I was 14 and a paper boy that seems quite reasonable! I can’t imagine a 14 year old being able to afford a gig like that without help these days.

RIP Claudette Colvin, subject of the episode of History Revision i'm most proud of. Her story is a fascinating insight into how we see activism, and i weep at how her actions would be seen by much of the media today.

Once again though it was good to see that they were outnumbered by the counter protesters including at least one councillor from the @bristolgreenparty.bsky.social 👏🏿

Far right group at a demo

On Saturday afternoon a far right rally took place in Bristol. They had a little boombox playing music and amongst the playlist were songs by Madness and Dexys Midnight Runners! The irony of choosing two groups who were so inspired by Black musicians they both wrote their debut singles about them!

And yet the government and so many others continue to support it with their presence 🤦🏿

Just…

The Beatles have never sounded better than after listening to the last few songs #totp

I feel like I’m in musical hell tbh

Dillinger - CB200 was another one

I shouldn’t be so hard on 1976 as I spent most of that year living in Jamaica so while you were listening to some godawful shite I was listening to stuff like this #totp m.youtube.com/watch?v=eACG...

Every time I watch a 1976 edition it’s inevitable that at some point I will realise that this is why Punk happened. Every time. #totp

Did people dance to Convoy in clubs? #totp
