Wonder if the Greens are the New New Labour, Labour are the New Conservatives, Reform are the New National Front and the Conservatives are dead.

Can't wait for Hannah Spencer to arrive at the House of Commons, shake her head and say, "Who's done this then? It's a right cowboy job" and offer to fix it "for a drink."

To clarify, I was not born in 1957. I bought this on CD in 1992, and it got me through my A levels.

Y2D30. The Molotovs: Wasted on Youth

Fabulous. The Jam reincarnated for a new generation. Arrives with the same burst of piss and vinegar as 50 years ago. Makes you want to get drunk and dance like a loon. Seeing them live tonight and hoping I don’t feel too old.

If Denmark really want a laugh, they should lend Greenland to Canada for a bit.

At one time, I remember thinking it was important to listen to people with political views other than my own. Then it became very apparent that none of them gave a tinker's cuss about what mattered to me, so I decided they could all get tae fuck. Any Tories I follow are people with other interests.
