I have so much hair. Maybe I'm not a centrist after all.

Tosh Mcdonald is a great example of sometimes it being better to be a bald centrist

I’m going to guess that the report will drop somewhere around the 2nd of June.
 

They will use every bit of flag waving celebration as cover to hide bad news. 

Supposed to be next week isn't it?

Isn't there supposed to be another inquiry which looks into whether Johnson misled parliament?

He'll use it as an excuse to pin the blame on civil servants & sack a few of them. 

Prime Minister Boris Johnson said it would be "entirely up to Sue Gray" whom she names when publishing her report, adding: "fingers crossed, that will be very soon."

So, that's him off the hook then. His minions have until 5pm Sunday to argue with Sue Gray not to include their names in her report.

Boris Johnson has engineered the system to ensure he can get away with anything.

One of their lines over the past few weeks has been how Spaffer has single-handedly put so many people into work in recent months. Wonder how they’ll spin this cull?

They don’t actually care about people in work they just want people in low paid jobs so they see themselves as better than all of us.

    • People seem to have got obsessed about 'secret sets' at all festivals this year even when there aren't any spaces other than, in EOTR's case, the usual late Folly sets that 90%+ of the time are from artists who are already playing. And if it is someone else, I'm sure it won't be a band who played the festival last year.
    • To be fair @Superscally barely mentions the running thing. Very quiet about it 😘
    • I guess we'll just have to wait until videos of the shows go up, but the fact that the standing is also greyed out still suggests to me that those sections just sold out out before the others and a blue block just be like 3 tickets left, it's still not concrete proof they never went on sale and if they were never on sale why would they not make it even, if 414 wasn't on sale then you'd think 409 wouldn't be either   
    • Selfish, but I've done the 2 days I'm there.. i'll try to do the rest through the day but might get beaten to it as it's editable....    https://clashfinder.com/s/ape2026/
    • I don’t think the festival automatically ‘need’ to have a female headliner if you have strong female headliners on the Other Stage (which I reckon will be Rosalia and Phoebe Bridgers), perhaps a female legend (praying for Annie, will take Cher), and a few female/mix gendered subs on the Pyramid (maybe London Grammar, The xx). From what I’ve seen of Sabrina, her team prioritises the pay day and I think she will be doing Wembley over Glasto weekend.   One thing I’ve noticed is a lot of the suggestions would be first time headliners and I can’t work out when the last time was that the festival had three artists top the bill that hadn’t topped it before? It seems to be something they like to do to make sure they have a ‘safe’ headliner that will land well with the masses. Plenty of names in that hat that could step back up next summer and should/could be about: Billie Eilish, Adele, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Radiohead, U2…hell, if Beyoncé is really planning to release a ‘rock n roll’ album to complete her Renaissance trilogy, Glastonbury would be a great place to ‘kick off’ that campaign for her.   And there’s always the Rihanna rumour. Her husband (I think) said this week she’s in the studio.
