BBC has a case against Trump. WhiteHouse Chief Press Officer called the BBC ‘100% fake news.’ Which is defamatory and untrue.

Farage will no doubt take Trump's side and Labour are fools if they don't exploit his treachery to the max.
Buckle up - because this now amounts to a direct and deliberate attack on our country and its cultural sovereignty. Which side our politicians take - Trump's or the BBC's - over the coming days and weeks will speak volumes about their patriotism.
Trump says he will sue BBC for at least $1bn over Panorama edit
The US president confirmed he intends to sue the broadcaster for at least $1bn over the Panorama edit of a 2021 speech.

Starting with Twitter.
I don't think this will actually happen. But if it does, the UK should simply start subjecting the actions of US-owned social media platforms in this country to British law. Incitement, defamation, intellectual property.

Finally got round to watching this and it's excellent on where we're going wrong, why we're struggling and why there's no easy fix. But especially good on the fact that teams have not just worked us out but caught up with us. Bit depressing really. #nufc

I've said it before, but I could listen to the backing track of Rock Your Baby, on a loop, forever. #totp

It's become something of a joke how many times this #totp comp has been shown on BBFOUR. So much so that I've avoided it for years. Watching it again now out of sheer boredom & laziness and enjoying it cos I've forgotten a lot of what was in it.

I know he's doing this to deflect, that's obvious. But can they use this to say 'we can't release the files now because there's another investigation happening'?

Couldn't believe it the first time I realized this was Status Quo. And I've often wondered if this was the 'hard rock band used to be pysch' template Spinal Tap was referencing with 'Listen To The Flower People ' #totp

Good. Hopefully other courts around the world follow. If your business model relies on theft you don't have a business model.

Young Punctum blog update - this week it's the hits and miscellanea of June 1977. "Silver Jubilee" by Neil Innes is not included because I didn't want to include it:

What a flipping song. Wonder if Janet was watching Public Enemy's stage act by this point. #totp

The production on this Electribe 101 song is absolute, distilled Late '89 (complimentary) #totp

Correction. 2nd best ABBA single *and* song. I had forgotten One Of Us was actually a single. #totp

Just got tickets to see Trevor Horn at the City Hall next month. Supported by Martin Mcaloon playing Prefab Sprout songs which is a lovely bonus.

Oh, man. CMAT's cover of "Wuthering Heights". She took it on, she wrestled it to the ground, she absolutely nailed it. With a band that look like they've waited their whole lives to have this much fun. I love this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlP9...

'Final score'
Border wars: a football match in 1599 between men of Bewcastle, England, and Armstrongs of Whithaugh, Scotland, was followed by ‘drynkyng hard’. Final score was two dead, 30 taken prisoner ‘and many sore hurt, especially John Whytfeild, whose bowells came out, but are sowed up againe’.
