One of the side-effects of the implosion of the Conservative party is how beyond amateurish their entire operation is now.
Even at a senior level the quality and experience of the people working for them is just incredibly low
Superb comp. Totally recommend it.

AI told me that Bowieโs Letโs Dance and the Clashโs London Calling were debut albums?!? I do hope youngsters in college arenโt relying on AI for essays if thatโs the quality of answers! ๐ฑ

I need official clarification: The Style Council released โIntroducingโ in 1983 as a mini album comp but many believe their debut album proper is Cafe Bleu (1984). Which one will be accepted? #5debutalbums8084

Marc Bolan was born this day in 1947 (Mark Feld). And this is one of the greatest singles ever released (IMHO) #Glam #PopMusic #Rock

Watch Brian Eno, Damon Albarn (Blur), Portishead, Hot Chip, and a bunch of other cool people hold a concert at Wembley Stadium, demand a ceasefire, and an end to the genocide.
How is this not all over the news? I think the greatest failure of the 21st century may just be the news media.
My first thought for #5debutalbums0004 is this. An artist sadly missed.

Lies, damn lies, and opinion polls - Who you ask and how you ask matter, as does why you are asking โ the history of opinion polls shows they are as much about creating opinions as they are about recording them, writes socialist historian KEITH FLETT

A gang of incredibly brave British police arrest a 90-something y/o nun for protesting the genocide in Palestine: she's what the British Labour Party, law & state regard as a terrorist supporter.
