I wish it were true that "no one is above the law". But while the City of London acts as laundromat for the world's dirty money, as almost all fraud and waste crime go unprosecuted, as no one has gone to jail for the financial crash or the poisoning of our rivers, this is manifestly untrue.

Please share. Today @heraldscotland.bsky.social published the stark findings from our report to the Scottish Gov CEEAC Committee on BBC Radio Scotland's late-night changes.

- plays of new music fell by 69%

Kurt Vonnegut often quoted his brother's phrase "If you think this (laboratory) is a mess, you should see what's in my head/up here" (his brother was a prominent scientist)

A story in Private Eye, headlined "Minority representation on TV causes outrage". The article reads: "There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television.

Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg."

She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce."

"I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough. There are too many people with angry red faces on television."

Really enjoyed reading this. A fascinating post-punk account - the challenges facing girls trying to do music their own way - well done @debseyonbass.bsky.social πŸ‘πŸ‘(Might be of interest to those following @henhoose.bsky.social ?) And, as with all good band biogs, I'm back to listen to their music.
