Today I have mostly been listening to Boston rock'n'rollers Watts. Check out this one from 8 years ago, released by Rum Bar Records. Get down and get with it, people! 🎸😀 #rockmusic #classicrock youtu.be/x-TgeA21QwA?...

Still reeling at the news that a new song by Half Man Half Biscuit, “Record Store Day”, contains the line “Oh I do like to re-release my B-sides” #musichall

As a member of the Labour Party, the views of this Blue Labour group disgust me. I have absolutely no desire to "win over Reform voters" by pandering to their prejudices. The right way forward is to improve the lives of ordinary people, and in doing so make Reform an irrelevance.

Share (1) perfect song that not nearly enough people have heard. Here’s the wonderful @samanthafish.bsky.social in dreamy acoustic mode. (She can also tear it up playing blues and rock’n’roll!) youtu.be/lEIQoFFfnbI?...

Going to keep saying it - the Farage effect is largely an illusion. Many, many more people loathe him than like him.

These are the 3 leaders of the biggest opposition parties at Westminster - Kemi Badenoch (121 seats), Ed Davey (72 seats) & Stephen Flynn (9 seats) meanwhile Adrian Ramsey leads Greens with 4 seats. How often do they get reported compared to Nigel Farage (5 seats)? Time to demand fair coverage NOW

Yet, this is where we are.

Nigel Farage said he’d ‘bought a house’ in Clacton – it’s actually owned by his girlfriend Reform UK leader said he’d ‘exchanged contracts’ to buy property last November, but it’s in name of Laure Ferrari! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The latest in a long line of terrible humans seeing if they can destroy people lives before asking if they should. If only sociopaths were seen as bad instead of rewarded.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care. They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Relaxing fiscal rules is one instrument that should be considered - justified by emerging geopolitical challenges. But Labour also needs to be bolder and more imaginative economically in order to fund change equitably - getting a bigger contribution from the rich. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I reckon the sweeping judgement that "The electorate is more middle class, more educated and more diverse" is a bit simplistic. But other than that, as a Labour member I'd say this @theguardian.com editorial very much hits the mark. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Very sorry to hear that Joe Louis Walker died a few days ago - one of the real greats of contemporary electric blues. Here he is having some fun, on his 2014 album Hornet's Nest. RIP Joe. 💙 #bluesmusic #musicsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=KexQ...

I'd never heard of Welsh indie rock band The Bug Club till last weekend, but was quite taken with this bit of quirkiness that I heard on @bbc6music.bsky.social! 🎸😀 @thebugclubband.bsky.social #rockmusic #classicrock #punkrock #garagerock #Musicsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY6I...

On Friday, ICE unlawfully deported an American child with cancer. The four-year-old was sent out of the country without medication, according to reports. This is the second time the Trump regime has deported a U.S. citizen child with cancer. The cruelty is staggering.
