Prolific belly button fluff manufacturer. Sings Paul Heaton’s bits in The Southmartins, writes too many songs and manages Amelia Coburn.

#bestalbums2024 Amelia Coburn - Between the Moon and the Milkman. Went to see Amelia perform this in a tiny venue. Totally captivated by her voice and craft. Note: Paul Weller recommends too.

I dont think even 5 years ago I would have opened my ears to a folky sea shanty sounding album. Shows what a special talent Amelia Coburn is.

Plus she wrote the best song about cheese ever

Album of the Year 2024: Amelia Coburn - Between the Moon and the Milkman

Thomas H Green has a cornucopia of 2024 delights from Wytch Pycknyck and Blood Incantation to Halsey and Miranda Lambert - but ultimately Coburn's Middlesboro folk has a special wide-eyed, guileless and fresh charm.

TODAY IS #HumanRightsDay

Let’s remember Human Rights are universal & non- negotiable.

If we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want

“We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants”

Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR
