The UK, and England in particular, is so overwhelmed by the twin cancers of corruption and disinformation that I believe it’s unlikely to ever recover.

Here is my review of The Odyssey…

I thought it was excellent- great script and pacing, impressive performances.
Profound messaging, thoughtfully delivered - great cinematography. In a way, strangely old fashioned- a proper Hollywood blockbuster.

I honestly can’t believe that my old friend Boy George has made an overtly pro-genocide, anti-Palestinian piece of musical propaganda…

George, you should be ashamed - I hope you think the money was enough to sell your soul… vile and poisonous

On a train to more splendid adventures today but still blown away by my Wednesday night at Chelsea watching Heaven 17, Tony Hadley and Holly Johnson. There was dancing !
Glen Gregory from Heaven 17 in a cream suit singing onstage. His left arm is raised to shoulder height and his right hand is holding the mic. Them in Smash Hits weren’t wrong when they said all that hair bleach wouldn’t do him any good; he has a shaved head. Holly Johnson in a studded jacket and shades. He is singing onstage into a mic on a stand. His hair is white, cropped short at the sides and longer on top. Tony Hadley singing onstage in a dark suit with a white shirt and black and white tie. He is greying at the temples and still one of the most objectively handsome men I’ve ever seen.

Pretty sure this is it. Last two may be cheating a bit as they were performed by Heaven 17

As if I couldn't love Heaven 17 more. They helped resurrect Tina Turner's career. Fucking awesome!
