Same when I saw him in the 80's. I realised halfway through his set I'd unwittingly come to see his warm up/backing band Tom Petty and TH and the whole experience perked up enormously. So many old hippies in the room seeing themselves in new eyes though. A lot of pony tails got chopped that night.

Why not a double, double bluff? Go through with the tax rise anyway, see the post budget gilt markets fall, announce the markets love it and have meaningful forecasts. If Reeves wants to Machiavelli this, go all the way I say.

Being a celebrity, under any definition, isn't an actual achievement. So thanks for your definition, but it still leaves the status of celebrity as empty, meaningless and without intrinsic merit as it ever was.

I wonder if the demands of social media are forcing journalists to drop their filters re reporting nonsensical briefings, as it encourages the briefers to feed ever more content into the SM mill. Supply and demand economics pollutes as natural controls break down.

Mine goes under a plant pot next to my front door. Tremendously liberating and does wonders for my productivity.

A council tax revaluation would induces potentially fatal seizures in the Daily Mail, so it's got that going for it.
