Music, poetry, lyrics, one half of Lo-Fi Fun Factory, indulging in looping and meandering trains of thought about politics and history and all that jazz. And Leeds United.

Frankly, we had to beat the worst team in the league, or else we might be the worst team in the league

But we did, so we’re not 😀
FT Wolves 1-3 Leeds United

Must win or not, they did. Big win. And they score goals now.

Of course, we’ve always known what a great player DCL is and we’re very fortunate to have him #lufc

I'd never heard of Osip Mandelstam
Nor his Stalin Epigram
Produced as evidence of his crime

- How scared and bitter must someone be
To punish a poet for poetry?

I'd never heard of Osip Mandelstam
But I have now
And so have you
No excuses
You know what to do.

15 years ago we stumbled out of a darkened practice room to play a gig in Lavery’s back bar and to celebrate we have constructed this video representation of one of our new tunes due for release in September 😀😎

Astonishing silence from UK news shows on this. Liberty took the UK government to court to defend the right to protest and WON

The Court of Appeal ruled on 2 May anti-protest laws which completely ignored the will of Parliament are UNLAWFUL

Will the Government now scrap these unlawful regulations?
🚨BREAKING

@libertyhq.bsky.social HAS WON ITS CASE TO #DefendDemocracy!

The Court of Appeal has ruled anti-protest laws which completely ignored will of Parliament are UNLAWFUL

Today’s judgement sends a powerful message to the government. It must now do the right thing

Tanaka in tears. Bamford with a magnificent bit of play in the final seconds to win the ball, get up off the deck and come away with it to find Schmidt and see out the final seconds.

Top of the league.

Cops busted a Quaker meeting house where people were having a meeting. I mean, you can cheat on your taxes, spout lies in the media, punish sick people for being poor - but don’t have a welcoming introduction to non violent protest or plod will get ya.

Labour is choosing to push 50,000 *more* children into poverty — and it is utterly disgraceful.
