Blimey. Asked about Trump, Merz says he’s in close contact with European leaders about becoming “independent” from US (and confesses “I never thought I’d say that on TV show”). Casts doubt on value of NATO summit in June. This from a die-hard Atlanticist. Things are moving fast.

If I was to nit pick, for me you could lose the final 2/3 songs. But it’s a wonderful, beautifully produced album. Dignity, Chocolate Girl, Ragman, Loaded (probably my favourite by DB ) — all essential.

Love it. Raintown is one of my favourite albums.

Hats is one of *the* transporting records. Always takes me back to drizzly evenings wandering around Edinburgh.

Yet more evidence that the Twitter algorithm has created a series of bubbles. LibDems aren't on KB's feed, so she doesn't think they are there.

Where the Lib Dems (yellow) performed well at the general election and can expect to make gains in May — largely at the expense of the Tories — courtesy of PolHome’s @zoecrowther.bsky.social earlier this month
