Andy Burnham for sure. Sadiq's not in the North ;)

They voted Leave but not by much... http://www.salfordnow.co.uk/2019/12/13/analysis-how-salford-voted-in-the-brexit-referendum/

which is actually true

I just came back to post that myself 😁 Keith should try a new job as a self-satirist.

It's just bitter revenge triumphalism really, after Labour centrist wankers spent four years fucking up Corbyn's chances. Aside from that I doubt many on the left feel anything much beyond disillusion and anger.

I voted Labour as well, but I can't say I was proud about it, Jeremy 😐

That was actually cheap for a great bass :) And bigger recorders can get much more expensive than that... https://earlymusicshop.com/collections/contra-sub-contra-bass-recorders/products/kung-superio-contra-bass-recorder-in-stained-maple

Yes, and I still have that book (y)

Yes. And it wasn't far behind the "quiet landslide" of 2001. But the fact that any party could have a parliamentary majority with just over a third of the popular vote — never mind a massive 66-seat majority — shows how completely stupid our electoral system is.

Without drawing any conclusions at all, the percentages of the vote (and distance from Tories) over the past 40+ years are interesting: Blair (1997) 43.2% (+12.5) Blair (2001) 40.7% (+9.0) Corbyn (2017) 40.0% (-2.4) Callaghan (1979) 36.9% (-7.0) Blair (2005) 35.2% (+2.8) Kinnock (1992) 34.4%...

It only became a sound when another tranche of tedious guitar bands got marketed as "post punk revival", completely missing the point. It's hard to think of any recent bands who might count as properly post punk. Massicot maybe. Or – I suppose – Sleaford Mods :)

It's better than the original of that and everything else (y)

surprised I've not posted this in this thread yet...

Post punk is not a sound, it's the development of an attitude: Punk = anyone can do that Post punk = so we can do whatever the fuck we like Dire Straits are not post punk, they're just a rock band.

If he was using an engine you'd have been completely thrashed.

That was meant to say "just ordered". But I guess it works just as well as an imperative. :giggle:
