Most Labour members make an informal trade-off: we accept that the party leader is well to the right of the members, in exchange for competent leadership and actually winning. If I wanted weak leadership and no plan I could have done that myself.

In other news I have been messing around with my new #ericasynths #Perkons and a TD-3 resulting in this video of a track which will in no sense be ready for this gig and probably won’t even be in this form when it’s done.
Next up we are supporting the mighty The Utopia Strong and Andrew Liles for @divine schism at the Little Bully. We are on first so get there early.
