    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    That would require electoral reform (PR) which Starmer is opposed to, sadly - which means that the Tories will probably be back in 5 or 10 years time, even more Right-wing, nasty, toxic, and 'Trumpian', and possible led by Nigel Farage* * Faraj is the Malaysian word for female genitalia :lolol:

    [Music] Why Deep Purple ROCK

    Didn't they usually start the with some fairly quiet low-key music while people were still arriving or putting coats in the cloakroom, and then they'd play either 'Carry On My Wayward Son', Heart's 'Crazy On You, or BOC's 'Don't Fear The Reaper'. This was the start of the evening proper...

    [Music] Why Deep Purple ROCK

    Great place - incongruously run by a lovely middle-aged Greek couple who looked about as far removed from hard rock as you can imagine, yet they'd be serving drinks while the heaviest, loudest, rock songs were blaring out, and the floor was a mass of 'air guitars' and long hair :rock: One of...

    [Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

    Just got back from my local gym - really feels like Spring outside, and loads of daffodils are in bloom already.

    [Music] Top Bands who never had a hit song

    Albeit posthumously, and due to one of their singles (Should I Stay or Should I Go) being used in a Levi's advert.

    [Music] Top Bands who never had a hit song

    I guess it depends what you mean by 'Top Band' - some would doubtless argue that if a group has never had a hit song, then they can't be a 'top band'! Half Man Half Biscuit - I'm sure they couldn't care less.

    [Politics] Harbingers of Doom?

    Ah, so you also watched Tomorrow's World - we'd be flying to work in two minutes with jet-packs on our backs!

    [Politics] Harbingers of Doom?

    Me too - just as I despair of people here who don't have a pot to p*ss in, but are convinced that public-school-educated millionaires like Farage, Johnson, and Rees-Mogg genuinely care about them. I've voted Green sometimes, but these days, part of me thinks that maybe the human race deserves...

    [Brighton] Council imposing double council tax on second homes in Brighton & Hove.

    Greed? Selfishness? It means fewer homes available for everyone else. The comment about tackling second homes 'becoming like a Russian state' is as pathetic as it is predictable.

    [Brighton] Council imposing double council tax on second homes in Brighton & Hove.

    Every 'second home' is one less home available for someone else to buy. How many people are 'forced' to rent because they cannot afford to buy, because: a) 'second homers' have reduced the number of homes available to buy, and forced up the price of those which do become available ; b) they are...
