Offspring. Cardiff. Superb.
Quite possibly the most fun I've had at a gig in recent memory.
Plus Simple Plan were just the most perfect support. Another band who I just forgot how many brilliant songs they put out.

Genuinely surprised by how many school age kids are currently on holiday in our resort. No issue with taking a few days out of school term, but thought the start of term is absolutely critical for making friends, getting the best start etc.

Instead of attacking civil liberties or even simple, basic Internet hygiene, maybe focus on parents parenting a little?

But the Telegraph forgot to mention it gave Bob Vylan a glowing four-star review last year and trumpeted that they “had somehow established a mood of feel-good catharsis."

Israeli government ministers and officials told us exactly what they intended to do in #Gaza, then went ahead and did it. There will be no justice until they are brought before the ICC to face charges of genocide.

Idiots.
There is a reason the care sector and NHS are over populated with staff from overseas, we don't have capable staff in this country.
That can change over time, and should for everyone's sake, but such an idiotic idea to ape Reform's platform.

Watch Labour's poll numbers drop into the teens in the coming weeks and months.
There is no way aping Reform can win them more votes than alienating everyone else will lose them.
Entirely self-inflicted. Idiots all.
