Offspring. Cardiff. Superb.

Quite possibly the most fun I've had at a gig in recent memory.

Plus Simple Plan were just the most perfect support. Another band who I just forgot how many brilliant songs they put out.

The cover art to Jack Williamson's "The Humanoids" (1949) shows a robot pulling down a flesh mask to reveal its blue-metallic robot head. The mask looks like a crumpled Donald Trump.

Is that ... Donald Trump?

The latter is my experience when taking the daughter away, teachers and schools are generally very accommodating, certainly during primary education in my experience. It's the timing though.

I'm specifically talking about the start of term. And we seem to be discussing very different trips.

Not sure all teachers are borderline alki's, although suspect I would be if in the profession.

Genuinely surprised by how many school age kids are currently on holiday in our resort. No issue with taking a few days out of school term, but thought the start of term is absolutely critical for making friends, getting the best start etc.

"Keir Starmer’s left-wing administration"

Eh?

Finally deleted Twitter. Been on the cards for a while but, as the missus pointed out to me while on holiday, it's utterly futile and does nobody any good. She's not wrong.

Anyway, here's the view for today. Menorca is lovely...

Stop children using software to dodge porn curbs, ministers told Downloads of VPN apps surged after the introduction of age verification on adult sites, leading the children’s commissioner to call for tighter restrictions

Instead of attacking civil liberties or even simple, basic Internet hygiene, maybe focus on parents parenting a little?

Going solely down the tech route to stop accessing stuff ignores reality. Simply no way to enforce that.

The Telegraph slammed the BBC for “championing” Bob Vylan….

But the Telegraph forgot to mention it gave Bob Vylan a glowing four-star review last year and trumpeted that they “had somehow established a mood of feel-good catharsis."

Full story in the new Private Eye, out now.

It's a step forward, so I'm in favour.

But don't expect anything game changing to happen from this.

Baby steps though.

I certainly agree with the analysis although not necessarily the conclusion. Stevens is ineffective but worse than no voice? Not sure.

Cymru has never been the squeaky wheel and pays the price accordingly by being ignored.

Labour losing popular vote for first time in a century might focus minds.

Israeli government ministers and officials told us exactly what they intended to do in #Gaza, then went ahead and did it. There will be no justice until they are brought before the ICC to face charges of genocide.

It's not just once either. Was caught in Swansea a month earlier. A closet Swans fan maybe?

Can't watch Chelsea without wondering about the sheer randomness of Enzo Fernandez being caught speeding in Llanelli, losing his licence in the process.

And that is why VAR is a net positive, despite how awfully it is often used

If they could extend this Twitter downtime permanently, the world would be a better place.

Solid 90's Ritzy's vibes here.

New YouGov poll:

- 66% would support the UK having closer relationship with the EU

- This includes half of both Leave (52%) and Reform UK (54%) voters

- Majority (53%) support Britain rejoining the European Union

- Six in ten believe Brexit has been more of a failure than a success

Idiots.

There is a reason the care sector and NHS are over populated with staff from overseas, we don't have capable staff in this country.

That can change over time, and should for everyone's sake, but such an idiotic idea to ape Reform's platform.

I can’t stop saying it to the tune of Copacabana (At the Copa)

WOKE MARXIST POPE

Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said
Young man, pick yourself off the ground, I said
Young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy

It's fun to shout at the

Labour are a nationalist party too, just a different stripe.

I think Welsh Labour, and its supporters, need to wake up. Scaremongering doesn't work when the current reality is so bleak for so many.

weapons-grade morons

I'm sure the Senedd and our MP's will be working hard to ensure we see a mere sliver of such funding being delivered down here.

I remember our convos about Reform and their appeal. This stuff is why.
