BBC Radio 2 news on the German elections opting to air the views of what they actually call the far right party, instead of the actual party that won, really is a choice. Reframing it all as 'they've ruled out working with us and it is unfair' and making them sound like victims is fucking wild.

Yaroo! Mark Wood and I (pictured*) were interviewed about More Sin - he compiled it, I wrote the foreword - by Manchester Evening News and growing up in gay clubs in very different places. (*not pictured, but there's pics of us as babygays involved) www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/whats-on/mus...

Repost with the first album you bought with your own money

Had a bit of a JR Hartley moment in a big Waterstones yesterday when I asked if they had my book in stock. Anyway, they’d sold out (obviously) and then I was introduced to an events person and TLDR I might be doing one after the paperback comes out in April. Jolly!

TBT or whatever to nine years ago and my groovy tshirt

Went to the Renegades exhibition up the Fashion & Textile Museum and it was amazing. I would absolutely wear the fuck out of that MA1. In fact, I have a battered MA1 somewhere, I might customise it. Anyway, it’s on for another couple of weeks so get to it.

Not only is my interview with Bruce Woolley in this new issue of Record Collector, my book and I am mentioned in the review for Box of Sin 2 (which I wrote the foreword to) too. Fancy that!

I’M HELEN STEPHENS AND I’M HAVING A PARTY AND THE OTHER TENANTS ARE THERE, AND A FEW FRIENDS, AND WE’D LIKE YOU TO JOIN US IN WISHING SO TOUGH BY THE SAINT ETIENNE A VERY HAPPY 32ND BIRTHDAY

Channel 4 News doing a piece on The Face exhibition. The presenter basically claimed Haircut 100 were part of the New Romantic scene. And that explains why there’s a smashed television outside my flat.

Tricky poster at shared house at university in the living room that I sorted out and then bought a stereo from a car boot sale.

This record… it’s been on my list to get a decent copy of for years but I’ve only ever found overpriced copies that looked like they’ve been involved in plastering. But now the sensational Ace have reissued it and hurrah!

With your looks you could go far But better watch the calendar @whatafuckingrecord.bsky.social

Just what is it I want to do? I wanna write about Loaded and have a good time... I get deep down, deep down for DJ Mag with an in-depth piece about the creation of Primal Scream's Loaded djmag.com/features/how...

Happy 40 years of EastEnders!
