This is what 30 years, three re-reads and umpteen house moves does to even the best of books

I wish I had a button that would kick people like this in the arse whenever I pressed it. I’d be like one of those experimental rats, they’d find my starved body with a bony finger still on the button
I’m sure a Reform government will be very supportive of minority groups. Definitely their brand. You’re like the pro-Palestinian segment of the US electorate who couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Kamala so instead ended up with Trump. So good luck chasing your unicorns of perfection

I recognise that having a famous sex pest called John Woodcock makes international observers think the UK is just taking piss but he is real and unfortunately from his position in the house of lords can hurt us
wait a sec, that's john woodcock! a man who resigned from the labour party right as he was being investigated for sexual harrassment, allowing him to claim it was for principled reasons of not liking corbyn. who was then given a peerage by boris johnson for being sufficiently right wing.
Yes, what if we moved the goalposts again so that this abysmal piece of shit, this walking affront to the democratic process, could just jail anyone he wants rid of? Much to think about

Someone posted this at the Fall Forum - I had never heard it as a studio version! So I'll shamelessly nick it for here. 🙂

Put your claim into Tempo House
Go round there and have a grouse....

Good, what a waste of everyone's fucking time and money the whole thing has been
Palestine Action have WON their judicial review in the High Court!
A massive victory for free speech, freedom of association and the right to protest.
A massive defeat for the draconian attempts by Keir Starmer's government to curtail our fundamental rights.

1900s bike adverts are among the most foreign country types of past. What if a dancer from the Moulin Rouge was in tears and the Pierrot clown was gloating in the background from a bathchair? Makes you want to buy a bike, doesn't it

Didn't want to wake up and learn,
I've learnt the word 'entrepreneur"
Wandered around, found out,
Didn't want to say the word, roll it around in your mouth
Every man jack wants to be what he is not.

12. Bill Wells & Aidan Moffat - The Copper Top (2011)

Of all Aidan Moffat’s many projects, his work with Bill Wells is the stand out to me.
