A beginner's instrument (?) It has a dignity and presence which are worthy of a virtuoso player, and even 25 years in, I feel that I am not doing my instrument justice. The Premier Pas Plus really can dominate a performance space.

He has the demeanour and facial expression of a school deputy head who has been apprehended with his pants round his ankles and is afraid that people will get to hear about it. Shifty, and semi-apologetic.

I think you've lived a very confined life and understand very little of European politics and government, or Christianity. If your Orange Saviour represents efficiency, or even Christian godliness for that matter, I want no part in it. Of course "moralism" doesn't have much to do with Trumpianity

There's nothing wrong with being Green, socialist or folkie. It suggests that he's a creative person of principle. I've not long been on Bluesky, Mr Odrowaz, but I've noticed that you're someone who likes to snipe at others from the sidelines.

The present government horrifies me (as did the previous one, of course) by its grovelling to oligarchs, tyrants and tabloid media - owned by oligarchs, of course.

That has to be the very worst of veiled condemnation. If Trump praised me, I don't know if I could live with the shame. Starmer is spineless and compliant enough to attract the praise of this disgusting villain.
