    [Politics] Are Labour going to turn this country around?

    Whether it be a referendum or an election, democracy can only really be achieved or declared when the electorate are given honest options. That's why this country now fails miserably, particularly with the affiliations of our press and media, as well as what I will just call underhand, or hand...

    [TV] What's good to watch on BBC iPlayer ?

    Thought 'Until I Kill You' was a very good 4 part drama on ITVX (couldn't find appropriate thread). Based on the true murder cases of John Sweeney.

    Joy Division

    Agree, though it would appear with a covering bassist recently as his son Jack Bates is currently touring South America with Smashing Pumpkins. No detriment to last night though.

    Joy Division

    Wasn't sure what to expect from Hooky at the DLWP but a very authentic sound all round and credit to him and band for reeling out those anthems for over 2½ hours. Can't recall going to gig with such a comprehensive set and scheduled interval. Since a disappointing New Order gig at Brighton...

    [Music] Where was this photo taken?

    That's Brighton Square. Fine records / Rounder records would have been just to the left.

    [Misc] Weight loss jabs - Mounjaro, Wegovy etc.

    It will be interesting to hear the BDA (British Dietetic Association) view on these and particularly in response to the Government plans to introduce further trials on the drugs' effect on obesity and 'worklessness'. It's still very early. They are certainly a cash cow in more ways than one...

    [News] Middle East conflict

    When you have no other defence, just say it didn't happen. Israeli spokesperson, David Mencer, besides being a former leader of the Labour Friends of Israel, was also director of the now Foreign Secretary David Lammy’s failed campaign to be the mayor of London.

    It does appear to state that yes, Streeting actually gave interview and wrote for the Telegraph who led with the story. Undoubtedly, and from the wording in the Telegraph, it appears that the main focus of these particular weight loss drug trials would be on 'worklessness.' 'Mr Streeting has...

    A £280 million sticking plaster by the sounds It's way way more complex than that for many, unfortunately. For those that may be on prescriptions that cause weight gain, either mental health or physical conditions, that advice, as well as the prospect of a jab (which may well have side...

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Concerns raised over ‘dystopian’ weight loss trials on unemployed Wes Streeting has accepted £280 million from a pharma company to trial an injectable weight-loss drug on those out of work in a move that has been compared to something out of a “dystopian sci-fi novel”...
