Hi folks and welcome to the first round of our new competition to find the best ever debut album. Tonight, we start with #5debutalbums0004 your challenge is to select your favourite five debut albums released between 2000 to 2004. Please reply with artist and album names and the hashtag. Mine are..

All it took was a bunch of moral free, money obsessed loons to end up fighting each other… truly Thatcher’s legacy, David Cameron’s cowardice & folly, BJ’s hubris.
The pain & suffering they’ve caused is immeasurable.
Maybe some of the despicable fools will suffer the consequences of their choices.

My friend ruined Bandages for me. You probably know how.

This is really important work…

Labour’s Employment Rights Bill may well transform workers’ rights. But only if people can access justice and enforcement of remedies can’t be dodged.

Do you really have rights at all, if the barriers to asserting them are so difficult to overcome?

Reform losing their shit over being told their policies are racist, so maybe they are too.
What are you then?
Cos ‘legitimate concerns’ don’t stretch to violent threats against immigrants, mass deportations or demanding British people be white.
You’re whiny racists. Don’t blame us for your shame.

Try “journalism” instead of platforming this liar, grifter, pal of Russia.
Ask him how Reform can govern a country when they can’t govern a local council?
Why are they silent on the Russian bribe verdict (maybe look into that a bit deeper by ‘investigating’)?
Push back.
Hold the fraud to the light

Well thanks for emphasising the party you belong to, Mahmood, because without that, it would’ve been hard to distinguish you from the Tories or Reform. All seemingly competing to win the “Biggest Bastard to Immigrants” prize. You cannot win against Reform, but competing with them disgraces you.

Press fawn over the grifter, they never ever bring up their inability to govern at local level…. They just let them say what they like, never do real time checks, no Russian bribes, are you a party or PLC?, never ask “why are you crap at local level? How can you manage the country with that record?”

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.

Our new episode is out now! Our second #nowplaying of 2025. @newpathstohelicon.bsky.social has picked Imaginal Disk by #MagdalenaBay, @killminus.bsky.social has picked With Love From A Padded Room by #CripplingAlcoholism & @ineeddirection.bsky.social has picked Preachers Daughter by #EthelCain!

This is what social. Media should be for. What an LP! Thank you for sharing this. Absolutely brilliant!

Lizzie Reid.
3 tremendous EP’s released.
I’ma huge fan & positive that you’ll love her stuff.
She’s supported Arlo Parks (1st time I caught her live) & Tori Amos amongst others.
Getting steadily increasing radio play.
I’ve seen her SO many times & I am always moved. I’ve DM’d you 😘🎁

You’re a bot aren’t you. Ffs.
No one could be so stupid as to never actually answer a question, or continue to post, all while being unable to deny the facts.
Hooked in by a bot account - smh.

Released on this day in 1983: Dear Prudence #SiouxsieAndTheBanshees

Haha!
Keep digging.
They’ll turn on you, or come for you, or someone you care about, eventually.
By then, it’ll be too late.

Feel free to try and find the lies in the facts I laid out about the speakers… they’re entitled to their beliefs, but not when it puts people in danger, or breaks the law. They’re not moral paragons, they’re evil, twisted, manipulators & grifters.

Haha!
Racism & bigotry are not free speech, hence all the criminals.
You’re way down the rabbit hole, which makes me pity you.
You didn’t answer me as to who of the ‘free speech warriors’ speak for you?
Give your head a wobble.
You’re siding with nazis, conspiracy loons, zionists & millionaires.

@13sarahmurphy.bsky.social pointing out what apparent “real journalists” refuse to.
These idealogical fire starters (just look at how ‘successfully’ they are in running local government) only want the world to burn… As long as they are safe, they don’t care about anyone else.
Anyone.

You’re angry about how crap the world is right now, it’s not because of anything these rich grifters will have you believe.
Immigration. Great replacemen theory, lies about protecting women & children
It’s quite easy to learn… and grow. Also to just leave folk who are different to you alone.

Brian Tamiki, the Christian superiority loony who says we’re a Christian nation when clearly we’re not?
Perhaps that awful actor Fox? You know the upskirting, libellous bigot, sacked for a misogynist rant?
Maybe you should stop believing the grift these fools are playing, & accept that while…

Eva Vlaardingerbroek anti feminist & great replacement conspiracy theorist?
Ant Middleton, convicted of assaulting police, guilty of owing £1m in tax & banned from being a company director?
Avi Yemini the admitted killer of civilians & self proclaimed “Jewish Nazi”?
Hang on, there’s more…

Warriors speak up for you?
Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon. Far right facist. Multiple convicted criminal?
Eric Zemmour. Convicted racist, antisemitic Holocaust denier?
Elon Musk. Elite tech bro. Calling for democracy to be stopped… and NOT on of the “elites”?
Not them? Maybe someone else then?

‘Bigoted’? Maybe you didn’t hear & see some of the activities - racist, islamaphobic, transphobic, most certainly bigoted against a number of groups. All because of what? Ignorance? Fear?
Maybe you need to take a look at yourself & take control of your own destiny.
Which one of the Free speech

Top of my list!

A billion times this!

Independent front page: Trump tells PM: Use the military to stop the boats

The Times front page Immigration is destroying UK, Trump tells Starmer President says to use military to stop crossings

The Guardian Trump tells Britain to 'call out the military' to control its borders

The iPaper Trump urges Starmer: use military to stop migrant boats

Honest to god. I dread to think what the front pages of the tabloids are, given these are the supposedly serious papers.
The immigration ‘debate’ has become a ruinous madness.

(Trump also said he’d settled the war between Azerbaijan and Albania, so why are we listening to *anything* he says?)

#5debutalbums0004

Feeling extremely happy to remedy this one completely bypassing me.
4 tracks in and it’s gorgeous.
Thanks @ineeddirection.bsky.social!
