Is it not the dreaded 5g mast that is causing so much controversy amongst some?

Well 5G is a load of little antennas as opposed to big masts, but they might be putting a kind-of 5G network in.

Of course, only a few people will be using the 5G network, so they'll get hyperfast internet!

I'm switching from Three to EE just for the festival - only £20 for the weekend and will hopefully be able to contact people!

its bonkers to think in 26 days time that this will be a fully functioning city built for our entertainment .... can you just imagine the time it takes to do one small element of the build ... and nothing here is small scale ..look at that fuckoff great big crane thats going to have things spinning and jetting fire ... and the gold sparkly pier that has barely been started ( well it doesn't look like it on the webcam ) ... these are just the huge things without all the creative / humorous touches that help make Glastonbury so special ... I was thinking today that its taken me a couple of years to get together my fancy-dress with a suit and a couple of hats and in a few short weeks they build a city ... wow just wow ... so looking forward to it now :)

It is immense. I know people on site already and I’m privy to some of the stuff going on.

Remember that there at 1000’s and 1000’s of builders and creatives for the next 26 days to build the best TEMPORARY city in the world for what is essentially a five day party.

Talking of which, are you involved in the wormhole and is the name a co-incidence?

You have the same sense of awe and anticipation as me?

I didn't realise the numbers involved ... do you know how many people it is on some of the areas ? where are you going to be based this year ? wormhole or rabbit hole ... must pop in and say cheers for some fancy dress tips

its just incredible and I totally understand Michael and Emilys enthusiasm for the back garden project .... im trying to think of some ideas for pangea once it has been built ... it would just be incredible if they implemented one of my ideas ...

Coincidence. I’ve never had so many private messages asking me for intelligence. Nothing to do with me but it does look cool.

I understand there are 70,000 onsite crew helping the party happen. Obviously this is the peak number. It’ll basically be increasing onsite daily from now on. 

? ? for me. Yes I’d love to say hi. Never quite sure of my shifts till much nearer the time. But ping me if you’re in the area and pop out and find you.

And it takes me about a week to pack my rucksack.

    • Its just going to be another dementia tax isn't it? The issue is this is going to be seen as a continuation of the labour government that have already raised taxes 1000% above manifesto promises.
    • One thing that Burnham has been talking about is scrapping inheritance tax and replace it with a social care levy ... which would be less progressive, but might be a good idea if was a solution for the social care crisis. Would need to sell it well to a public who would prefer not to pay more tax.
    • Maybe you should put your name forward to be Burnham's chancellor.
    • But I think the point of that Dan Needle tax thing...we need to put up income tax, for all incomes (and thresholds should be unfrozen).
    • There are no easy answers...more than anything we need growth...and probably main ways of getting that is borrowing more to invest in stuff that makes us super sexy, and/or cut taxes on business and wealth generation which would mean less money to spend on public services and welfare and would obviously be super unpopular and get you chucked out of govt. On top of all that got an aging population, a growing welfare bill, a call for higher spending on defence, housing inequality, higher borrowing costs, and probably a load more sh*t on the way due to the Iran war (although so far it hasn't been that bad?)
