Starmer learning that bully-boys & utter psycho-wankers can never be appeased. He’s walked a very careful, hugely diplomatic line so far, not sure where he goes after the Orange Baby’s latest outburst. Further isolated by the disaster of the Tory/Farage Brexit, of course. Shitshow all round.
Is it possible to insert a B1 bomber up the anus of an orange Cheeto?
A little bit obsessed with all the nut clusters currently ‘ashamed to be British’ because Starmer didn’t sign us up to this shit show.
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
Yesterday’s #gym #workout #music accompaniment, some fine #jazz from Bill Evans, Benny Golson and Kenny Burrell. Niiiiiice!
Like clockwork.
Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.
Awful game and an even worse result tonight for @leedsunited.com against a Sunderland team whose only shot on target was their penalty. Shame Leeds didn’t get the penalty they should have had in the first half. Which game were the VAR officials watching? Just felt like one of those games #lufc

Searing comment piece from the excellent Marina Hyde in today’s The Guardian.
Today’s #gym #workout #music accompaniment, vintage #jazz from Bill Evans (Interplay). Smooooth. And a funktastic record by Charles Kynard (Woga). Niiiiiice.
What's the real reason for this war in Iran? Trump and Netanyahu are using the same authoritarian playbook. A big part of that playbook is using war to blot out your failures and any criticism you are facing at home.
Some thoughts...

Agree with much of this, but there is a glaring omission. Just look at the photo. It’s not just the named players taking on pre-agreed sustenance, it’s a full-on Guardiola team talk that disrupts the game when his team are getting battered. That is cheating #lufc
Reflections on the @leedsunited.com game against Man City yesterday. Second time we’ve played them when we deserved a point. Gave it everything and should have converted that early dominance. Hope they’ve got plenty in the tank for Tuesday. Ref poor. Cherki should have been sent off #MOT #lufc
Love making #sourdough So rewarding. Used to be like cow-pats when I started out years ago. They’re beauties now #baking #bread

#album 21 ‘Energy Drop I’. Out now. My first wholly #ambient release. It’s in the layering. Fun to do #electronic #music #musica #electronica #musique #musik #chill #relax #deeplistening
New #electronic #ambient #album Energy Drop I. Out now. #vinyl available in March. Vintage Eno and Loscil were influences on this one. Available on all platforms. If you give it a spin, thank you 🙏 Really appreciated #music #musica #electronica #musique #musiik
Great point for @leedsunited.com away at high-flying Aston Villa today who were deservedly behind for most of the game after a wonderful Stach free-kick. Real shame #lufc couldn’t hang on for all three points. Villa’s equaliser was streaky but I’d have been happy with a point at the start #MOT
Yesterday’s #gym #music #workout accompaniment, #newmusic by Olafur Arnalds and my own new #album ‘Energy Drop I’. Proud of it. Vintage Eno and Loscil were influences on this one. My first fully #ambient album. #vinyl release scheduled for next month. If you do listen at some point, thank you.
