I think on a music festival message board it’s a legitimate question to ask. It doesn’t suggest the OP doesn’t give a shit about anything else. Of course there are much bigger things to be worrie

So...OX/AZ, blood clots, suspension of vaccinations, politics, vaccine hesitancy, convoluted data, PR problems, Brexit, EU procurement naivety, poor logistics, national identity...there’s an awful lot

Good show from Starmer. He looks extremely credible compared to Johnson in my opinion.

Starmer is absolutely brilliant, he's better than Johnson in every single possible way.

 

I love his attention to detail, I love how he went through papers at the dispatch box and I love how calm he remains whilst apart the ministers in front of him.

Very very good from Starmer. Bunting and clapping is meaningless if not combined with radical social change.

I feel emotional reading that.

Here's hoping people take notice of this and the Tories 20 point lead vanishes.

The complete social inequality in this country makes me feel worse and worse as I get older. I'll never understand how you can vote for a party that will always put the needs of big business and their rich friends above the overall population. There was a chance with Corbyn but there's an even better one now with Starmer; we just have to take it.

Starmer is very good, being a QC he is used to talking and grilling people which is why he is good at PMs questions.

not sure about anything else though.

He's got 4 years to win you round.

This rings worryingly true...

Ooh, ta, that's interesting. I'd been thinking today how strange it is for them to balls up the comms. Their/Cummings' 'genius' in recent years has been in distilling complicated concepts into simple catchphrases and serving them to the public

Very interesting.

 

I hope Starmer is savvy enough to see this coming, his response so far gives some hope.

Starmer knows what he is doing. He has been very deliberate about not just criticising for the sake of it. So he has avoided that trap.

I personally like his approach of being supportive when he can be. Bit more frown up. I would be happy if he kept it up in 'peacetime'.

Agreed. I reckon people will be looking for a safe pair of hands after the trauma of this pandemic and the coming recession and he is doing a good job of coming across as just that.

If he wins the next election then great, that's better than the tories and we corbynites will have to admit that having someone who can play the game is probs the best way to win.

But how much a Labour govt gets done will depend on the ambition and imagination of the ministers that he appoints and his first appointments to the shad cab were lacklustre to say the least. I suppose it may be more a temporary pax keirstarmus one, to appease opposing factions but I dearly hope he ships out the many careerist dullards before the next election. The likes of jon ashworth, wes streeting, kinnock, doughty etc etc

It's either possible for Parliament to work remotely, in which case they should continue to do so (according to their own guidelines).

Or it's impossible for Parliament to work remotely, in which case Parliament has not been working the past few months and any legislation passed is null and void.

      Live gigs - Who you've seen were they good, bad etc.

      By Gnomicide · Posted

      Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
