Suella Braverman's comments are beginning to make more sense as the basis of leading defecting MPs with far right sympathies out of the Conservative Party than a bid to lead it

Just dug out my promo copy of Kling Klang's only album (in fact, a compilation of singles and other odd tracks) which I reviewed many years ago. It's brilliant. Glad to see it had a reissue a few years ago, but whatever happened to these guys? klingklang.bandcamp.com/album/the-es...

This is true. Back when UKIP had one MP, Farage managed to fall out with him. And the reason he appears so much on Question Time et al is they're obliged to give his party a certain amount of slots and he takes most of them. He doesn't foster talent at all.

WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power. This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.

I was surprised to see how much illustration work Quentin Blake is still doing, then I realised it's nearly all other people copping his style. If you're a Roald Dahl tribute act like Walliams, the Blake-style art is how you signal this to buyers.

Thank fuck for that. It was always deeply strange to have a Conservative government bandying about this slightly misapplied phrase from RPGs and video games with little sense of what they actually meant by it www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It’s the sort of speech that wouldn’t have had any pushback before Brianna Ghey’s mum visited parliament. Progress is done in small increments followed by pushback, if the pushback is smaller than the progress the next bit of progress will be further.

As Ed Miliband ends the ban on onshore wind and moves to classify it as national infrastructure (i.e. like pylons, the secretary of state approves them and a local council can't go 'we have quite enough power to be going on with) I once again find myself thinking about Rishi Sunak's 2024 campaign.

The Beatles are unusual for UK artists of their era in that, from pretty early on, nearly everything they recorded was kept in case it was of value. So I don't think EMI were *that* worried.

For US artists yeah, but two was generally the max for UK artists. Capitol clearly did want more, and did squeeze three albums out of every two UK ones - I can only assume the few outtakes that were around were consciously held back, or they'd have been stuck on Beatles '65 or Yesterday And Today.

To an extent I guess it's that there was such demand for material from them, anything they did would get released - but the existence of a handful of outtakes indicates there was *some* quality control at work.
