Here's a zero-gravity parody song about this week's coverage of #BlueOrigin's rocket launch. Sorry we forgot to turn the clicker off but we were more worried about getting the pitch (nearly) right. It's called "Flight from Earth" based on the anthemic #Firework by #KatyPerry 🎇🎶

Next Saturday during our last ever fixture v Arsenal at Goodison, we are asking all fans to stand up in the 9th minute and sing “Super Kevin Campbell”
It would be great for the fans of the clubs he loved most to pay tribute to him in our final season at our ground, where he became an instant hero 💙

There's been lots of talk about the OBR downgrading the UK's growth forecast over the past couple of days.
So here's a handy reminder of one of the main reasons our economy is struggling... 🤦

Here’s a song about #Signalgate – the flamboyant US security breach – adapted from one of our all-time fave Bee Gees songs, titled “You Were Not Supposed to Message it Through!”
A quick turnaround, but only 5 of us as Alfie (really our best fake Bee Gee) is away 🔥👊💪🙏🎶

This is "I Put Up Tariffs" 🎶- perhaps the first ever parody song (?) to make reference to the Smoot-Hawley Act of 1930. It's based on #BobMarley's legendary "I Shot the Sheriff" and sung from the point of view of #Trump, unleashing his frenzy of #tariffs on the USA & the world.

A sound Budget will be vital for the UK, but it is unlikely that most of our media will analyse it in a way that tells us whether it is sound.

1. You feel powerless? Don’t know what you can do to resist the rise of fascism?
Here is an answer: Good Things.
Fascism inflicts pain and harm as a matter of doctrine.
Kindness, care and conviviality defend us from it.
The more we build community, the less it can take root.
