Its a sad situation which worries me, because we have some very difficult times ahead and some very nasty choices to make. more…

I grew up during the Thatcher years too and I still have a massive aversion to the Tories as a result. But I also have a massive aversion to Labour and I have in fact never voted for either of the 2 big parties. I don't trust anyone who chooses a career which gives them power over people fpr the simple reason that wanting such power means that they more…

Yup - its certainly come to something when a natural supporter of labour like myself can't stomach them... more…

Alone? You must be among the very last people not on their payroll (I presume) who had retained respect for this government.
The rest of us have long seen through their inept managerial authoritarianism, lies and corruption. more…

They were back on top form, weren't they?
We saw them in Bradford and Edinburgh in April and whilst they were good in the former the latter gig was a shambles in my view (worst i've ever seen them in all the years I've been trailing them around); Tim Booth was not relaxed and Saul appeared to be in a foul mood.
But Manches more…

As it happens I'm a fan of XFM in the mornings, but can't abide the DJ who has the afternoon drive time slot - particularly as he insists on always calling Morrissey 'Mozza'. Git. more…

A search for my name brings up a load of crap about some Sheriff in the USA, followed by terrible picture of a 17-year-old me on a friend's //very// out of date personal website, c. 1997.
Scary.
Like you, I don't tend to use my full name online - phew! more…

I know exactly how you feel - having been through the Thatcher and Major years, I really didn't think we'd ever bear another self-serving power hungry bunch. How wrong was I? more…

Its all so awful. I feel thoroughly fed up today about the kind of country we have become and the kind of government we have. Its pathetic. more…

Actually I think you have it bang on. All that needs to happen is for Harry and Hermione to get it together (or more likely Universal Studios to wave a big cheque), and we'll have a literary legacy to rival that of Enid Blyton... more…

You lost me after the first line, but we'll probably get one. She got an MP4 player, she got us networked, she got a nintendo brain trainer and she got us a few mobile phones and expects me to know how to work it. I'm just happy being a Luddite. more…
