Amazing performance. So powerful. Didn’t see it at the time because I would have been 6 years old! I got into them initially because of MES interviews in the NME. First album was Code Selfish. Been obsessed ever since 😆

I would have had a very different person without them too

The Pogues - Peace and Love

There is no ceasefire.
There never was.

The Wire

“I like Boston. Yeah it’s good. Decent bars but they all sell American beer which explains why they all do coke. Half the actors are English though. I did some acting. It’s easy. All these posh boys being Yanks though. Hugh Grant being a cop. Hilarious. He loves the Fall apparently.”

Breaking Bad.

“It’s like the fucking A Team. Mr T? Builds a weapon out of some old crap and a machine gun. Somehow doesn’t kill his son, it’s his son isn’t it? And then he dies. I can’t see what the fuss is about. People in Norway probably like it. They like meth. You can buy it in IKEA there.”

Game of Thrones

“They asked to use “Elves” for the soundtrack. Offered me 50 grand. I could use the money but it’s like fucking Pink Floyd. I had to say no. And they blame the woman at the end for burning everything down. Typical prog mentality. Fought a war against that. I liked the dwarf though.”

Mark E Smith passing judgement on the final episodes of classic box set dramas.

The Sopranos.

“It’s typical lazy Yank writing. Stick em in a diner. Fade to black. Everyone says it’s clever but you wouldn’t get away with that on ITV. Isn’t Springsteen in it? Or Sting. That fucking says it all.”

So I suppose this means British Airways endorses the views of everyone Louis has interviewed prior to Bob Vylan, like white supremacists, murderers, the Westboro Baptist Church, and Jimmy Saville

Amazing work by British Airways on that

Getting the Beatles together

Always with the 'I went vegan and I died' line 😅

Many of us will not forgive the current Labour Party for how they treated Corbyn and the Palestinians. Will only vote Green. Put the environment first and tax the wealthy.

Vegans are just out here being at the top of their game in intense competitive sports and yet we are still saying ‘bro, where do you get your protein though?’

You have a point, maybe I should have said, tell the truth about the conditions of livestock, how farm workers mistreat them and the painful ways that they are killed but try to make it age appropriate. We certainly should not be spreading the so called humane conditions farming propaganda though.

Teaching children to be truthful about the world we are living in is not a negative thing,

Beef, pork, chicken: the world loves cheap meat. If people knew what really goes in it, that love affair would be over | Devi Sridhar Antibiotic use in farming is now rampant. How meat is produced in China may mean the drugs you need here won’t work, says Prof Devi Sridhar, chair of global public health at the University of Edinburg...

Remember this, whenever someone says "alternative proteins - yuck!"

🚨SHOCKING FACT: Did you know there are 377 Marine Protected Areas in UK waters?

And the UK government allows industrial fishing in 374 of them.

See the problem here?

Nigel Farage’s Reform Party Has Accepted £2.3 Million from Fossil Fuel Interests, Climate Deniers, and Polluters Since 2019 Election Reform UK has received more than £2.3 million from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers since December 2019, amounting to 92 percent of the party’s donations...

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com

Absolutely superb effort by all those who voted for this, many of whom are now dead.

This is the most cheering UK political poll I've seen in months, although third place is still too high for a fascist party.
