    Also the left (the actual left, which includes some people in Labour and an increasing number who are not) ARE united around the cost of living crisis, strikes etc. Wildcat strikes at four Amazon warehouses this week. Firemen, teachers, postal workers, a bunch of others talking about it. It’s...

    There isn’t an election for a few years so they can do what they like as they have no real opportunity to change things. More broadly this is what happens when you have people who passionately believe things vs power crazed lunatics with no core belief system.

    I have not seen such popular support for striking workers since the Ambulance strike in the late 80s. The RMT people are all over daytime TV absolutely ruling the situation - expressing what people feel in clear and passionate ways. Notably without pandering to any culture wars nonsense...

    An eerie inevitability about that cover in retrospect. A last gasp of the Beatles being psychedelic before Oasis and identikit “lads” show up?

    Weirdly I was having a gander at Discogs trying to figure out if I had met* some members of Boys Wonder (of the comedy eyebrows that @blissblogger posted at the top of the thread). Turns out that one of Boys Wonder was later in Underworld. Another was previously in Haircut 100. And a third was...

    I remember Genesis P-Orridge being miffed about being below Neds Atomic Dustbin on the bill at the Reading Festival. Actually, looking at the old line ups for Reading would be fruitful for thread. Zodiac Mindwarp, Dumpy’s Rusty Nuts, The Mission.
