  1. Almost as popular as Hitler was circa 1933
  2. Trans Nutjobs new album drops tomorrow I think
  3. I also agree that we can't blame Brit Pop, aside from Menswear who I'm pretty sure cursed us all with their existence.
  4. Aye, same. Watched it over the weekend. Thought it ramped up nicely.
  5. Phoebe for Park headliner on Friday pls 🙏
  6. 100%. Stinks of shock doctrine politics.

    Adele

    And you can help in rounding up others to toil in her underground sugar caves.
  8. This feels incredibly accurate.
  9. 6/10 for me. GKMC being a glaring omission in my collection.

    I used to work with a guy who had been avoiding watching the Kerrang! TV channel as he'd misread it as Kerrangi and presumed it was an Indian/Bollywood type channel.
  11. Not a great deal necessarily as it definitely doesn't come cheap but I splurged on the Let It Be deluxe edition. Making my way through the vinyl this afternoon and have absolutely no regrets. It's fantastic. Hardbook that came with it is terrific too.
  12. Wait. The opening track is TWENTY MINUTES LONG
  13. Got this on now. Decent 👍
  14. 44/200 for me (physical copies)
  15. We used to be forum friends
  16. Confirmed now thats he's died. Truly horrible stuff.
  17. What are you basing this on? Checking recent polling the Tories and other right-wing parties (i.e. UKIP and Reform) are still under 50% combined (40+3+4). Whereas progressive parties (not necessarily left-wing, but certainly all considerably to the left of the current Tory govenment; Labour, LDs, Greens, SNP and PC) are on 53% - https://www.politico.eu/europe-poll-of-polls/united-kingdom/ Add to that that 66% of people think that the NHS should be funded by the government based on taxation, and 70% believe it's the sector that the gov should spend more money on (dwarfing the likes of Defence, Crime and Policing and Pensions. 62% of people support (or strongly support) the nationalisation of the railways. The majority of Brits want a progressive goverment. That's what Starmer SHOULD have been doing, but he hasn't. He's gone to war with the left of the party on some terrible advice of those around him. He isn't connecting with the electorate and he isn't building coalitions with the other prgoressive parties. I'm not a Corbynite. Did I like him? Yes. Did I vote for him? No. I'm not sure why Starmer supporters keep bringing him up. It's time to move on and deal with the situation facing you today. Thinking that all Starmer critics are just scorned Corbynistas may help you ignore the obvious regarding his successor but ultimately it's futile if your aim is, as you say, to get rid of the Tories.
