So..will Hunt remain as chancellor, I assume he will for time being. Badenoch going to get a bigger job? Braverman back in the cabinet? And I guess Mordaunt will be in there somewhere, and probably Javid. But, what about Johnson and Truss??

I think Hunt will definitely stay. The rest I have no fucking idea. Isn't Braverman a bit bonkers for Sunak?

Actually I take your point. There will always be a centrist party that try to get a majority of their own. Yep, I get that.

Except when it's a compromise between parties then *within* purist parties you'll have members arguing about the extent of being 'pragmatic' and how much it dilutes one of their purist policies versus getting another policy adopted. Parties will still need to make that balance between keeping their members happy versus selling their souls.

There will definitely be more splinter groups than that on the left I reckon!

I mean, members arguing is the cornerstone of political parties. You won't ever escape it. But I think the factionalism would stop breaking out into dominating the news cycle over eg. China going even more authoritarian dictator-for-life.

    • Audrey Hobert getting a lot of traction lately and new single on Friday. Wonder if she could be round next summer.
    • Think Pulp are optimistic, not in terms of size but just that they've been on the road (albeit not intensively) for 3 years in a row and it feels like EotR is the deliberate end of the cycle.   Would be fairly surprised if they're active next year.
    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
