Mani, symbol of the ‘90s Manchester music scene, will be sorely missed Stone Roses bassist Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield died aged 63 years old, a sad loss to the Manchester music scene, but he leaves behind some great memories

It's the 21st anniversary of the Second Coming by the Stone Roses, my favourite of their albums and wish I'd made this clearer in this article remembering Mani for @northwestbylines.co.uk

I've bloody loved listening to it again...

I started getting involved with @bylinesnetwork.co.uk in the summer. Best choice I've made in some time. Great group of people passionate about what they do. Very worth supporting.

The X Effect and the dangers of social media bias Sky News' investigation The X Effect has exposed a right-wing bias in X's algorithm, which boosts extreme content over left-wing voices

“Over nine months, Sky News’ Data and Forensics team investigated whether X’s algorithms amplify right-wing and extreme content.

Their findings were clear: Elon Musk’s X is boosting right-wing and extreme content, as well as politicians Musk favours.”

👏👏👏 Kudos on several levels! If this turns out to be a hoax we'll be very disappointed. What a stark contrast to the response from Wakefield Council to the "unauthorised erection" of flags there!

Disgraceful! A patriotic flag shagger who dedicated his time to illegally putting up 64 flags is being charged £2,300 for the cost of taking them down. If it wasn't so funny I'd be furious.

Oh blimey, that sounds like a superb write up when you feel like it, even better since you can weave in personal stories.

A school friends dad in the 80/90's owned a recording studio in Brailes, Freddie Mercury stopped at The Gate Inn which was very spit and sawdust, it was great back in the day, walked into the pub full of farmer types, dressed in hot pants and asked for directions 😂

Apparently, still talk about it

I've got the Stone Roses Second Coming on full blast right now, I take this back, I think it's the best!
