Downing Street considers U-turn on cuts to benefits for disabled people Controversial plans to cut personal independence payment (Pip) may be shelved after a tense cabinet meeting and backlash from Labour MPs

Downing Street considers U-turn on cuts to benefits for disabled people.

That would be good. People must keep up pressure. Visit your MP's surgery.

Must reverse the two child benefit cap, restore winter fuel payment to pensioners below the poverty line.

Don't think I can stick around for the 90s, hard enough to live through at the time. #totp

Aye for sure

The Pretenders version of Stop Your Sobbing is the best record ever. This leaves me cold. #totp

Hated 17 at the time. Sounds better now. Love the girls. #totp

Spacer is AWESOME, but why? It's also kind of terrible. #totp

I SHOULD get up and dance to this, but I had pie for tea #thespecials #totp

They tried to position Suzi as a rebellious alternative but she was sadly like status quo. #totp

Mary of the 4th form, because I was a baby punk, Rat Trap, Mondays.

Lord, no!

Boomtown Rats had 3 great songs, this isn't one of them. #totp

I always think 'oh I'll watch five minutes' and then end up loving this film. On repeat.

The Fleetwood Mac scene always gets me, great script, great comic acting, awesome music.

I rolled my eyes at the start and now I'm loving it.

Make it stop #simplyred #totp

Southport's finest Marc Almond. Stalked him once in Woolies. #totp

Call My Agent is the best. Also The Diplomat, 1st series.

Just relieved they didn't play it

Stray Cats were GREAT. Saw them early doors in Liverpool

Why were there still so many Teds in the 80s?

#totp

As a teenager I detested Status Quo but somehow I've picked up a deep love for Sweet Caroline in the intervening years #totp

Kevin Mooney tho.

#antcrazy

Uncool but I ADORE Earth song #totp

Apart from Breaking The Waves, which broke me.

I'm so sore today!

Arthur was the only good guy in #TheHoliday. Miles was as much a self obsessed narcissist as Jasper. He was also punching up. Iris deserved better.

Been dancing in my kitchen. Already shattered!

I met some of Madness at the Drum Marathon at the Royal Court in Liverpool in the early 80s.

FABULOUS people.

For me they never surpassed One Step Beyond. Been doing that dance in my kitchen just now. #totp #madness #BBC4

There's, like, TWO Simply Red songs that I find GORGEOUS and this is one of them, his voice is beautiful.

Apart from that insert the usual Mick Hucknall comments...

#totp #BabiesIfYouMustKnow

I know I'm in a minority but I find 'Temptation' unbearably screechy. #totp

Series 1 of The Diplomat was the best thing I've seen in yonks. Bit disappointed in Series 2.
