Thinking of dear friend, “Medder” - David Medcalf, who died a short time ago. It would have been his 75th birthday today. He loved this song - “Perfect Day” - Lou Reed. David is greatly missed by friends & family in Britain & Ireland.

I normally don’t go for country music, but I like the David Grisman mandolin playing here, also the beat, graphics and even the metaphor on this one… youtu.be/aNGfwxI7GV4?...

Can’t help feeling that UK is on the verge of making yet another massive mistake (after Brexit). It’s all a bit too easy, anointing a new leader on the alter of populism. There’s no denying Burnham was a good mayor but PM is an infinitely more complex role. The present incumbent was so refreshing…

Ben Kentish was unbelievably offhand on @lbc with an intelligent female listener who made a very strong point (despite constant interruption) for sticking with Kier Starmer because of his growing success rate). Not good.

A reminder that the real patriots aren’t the ones tying flags to lampposts or standing around outside 3-star hotels.
They’re the ones who get stuck in within their local communities, the volunteer, the football coach, the litter picker and myriad others.

Brexit was a wrong turn as a solution to inequality brought about by Thatcherite policies. Farage and his simple-minded hard-right supporters can’t accept this. They have instead chosen, wittingly or unwittingly, racist & fascist scapegoating alternatives to alleviate their frustration. #HardRight

Why doesn’t Badenoch realise that she is not at her high school debating society now; that her election results were as bad Stamer’s and she was a member of the most corrupt, incompetent and wasteful government in living memory. #KingsSpeech.
