An artist that gets more plays than most others here.
And I bet many people would recognise his work as itโs used as Incidental music so often.

Let's see where we are in the justice stakes, eh?
- Johnson: big money ChatGPT articles for the Mail.
- Cummings: consultancy, Substack prick
- Hancock: consultancy, book, I'm a celebrity
- Sunak: prime minister, big money advisor
- Gove: editor at The Spectator

The Covid Inquiry finds that if Boris Johnson had called the first lockdown even one week earlier then it could have saved at least 20,000 lives.
Here's a quick reminder of what Johnson was actually doing during those weeks

A BBC news headline reads 'UK did 'too little, too late', leading to thousands more Covid deaths, says inquiry'. Accompanied by a photo of the useless sack of shit that calls himself Boris Johnson.
And in other news today:
'Bears - they DO shit in the woods!'
'Pope reveals he's a Catholic!'
'Fire - Ooh! It's hot!'
