    News of the World phone hacking scandal

    I thought even the calmness was lacking when I read the Sunday Times at the weekend. Their long piece on the hacking story talked of the "tyranny of the print unions" and called Ed Miliband and the Guardian lefties in a main news story. It was really shrill. I don't think it's a good paper at all.

    I love it. Loads of great ideas, some pretty beautiful short tracks. Also less tricksy than previous zomby releases.

    The ton of shit would have come from, among others, News International. That's worth noting.

    News of the World phone hacking scandal

    Yeah, taking it international is going to fuck them so bad. But reading the story, they didn't actually do it. They tried, and were turned down. So I think it will be easy fo them to deny. And on Coogan, he was a bit too angry for his own good, but the idea that he can't hate the NoTW and do...

    To be honest, I'm probably wrong. I don't tknow where I got that from. Anyway. His book The Triumph of the Political Class is good. Also, this response from Conservative Home (who are soooo second rate) is a good laugh.

    Jeez, that's brutal. Oborne is a Tory I like. He's a middle class guy who loathes the upper class, right? Cos he can't join them. Hence all his references to "sets" and "cliques". I thought he didn't like Cameron at all, for that reason?

    News of the World phone hacking scandal

    Not sure how relevant that is. They didn't go on to employ one of the accused as head of communications. Newsnight last night was rubbish, really boys clubby "you're naive if you think this doesn't happen" kind of bollocks. All in front of a massive picture Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman. It...

    Yeah, there's a more interesting discussion to be had here than funky v post dubstep. Why did New York die, for one? Assuming it did...

    And how the later meetings are too knowing and just copy elements of the earlier ones, not really capturing their essence

    Sorry I can't make this now. Nearly died playing football in the heat this afternoon. Need a lie down.

    Dissensus Drinks Sunday 26th?

    I find this stuff really embarrassing, like I'm totally ashamed that his happened to you in my country. I literally do not understand why a DJ needs a work permit. Is there a strong anti immigrant impulse among Djs? "Coming over here, using our Ableton...". So sorry, Zhao Edit: I'll still meet...

    Yeah, I think Jamie XX is a perfectly valid name. As far as I know they've not split up or anything.

    Roiling football blather

    I thought we bid about that much in the transfer window? We definitely offered around £2.5 for MacKail Smith from Posh. Good business from Brighton if the price has risen- you couldn't risk not going up with the new stadium to fill. How good is Bennett, then? Will Buckley from the Obs is a...
