used to love Cooke's Letter From America which wasn't a podcast and was probably bad. But liked the ASMR qualities of his voice more than his observations on golf and the oddities of his US fascist friends.

Under the assumption of no deal I am on the lookout for anything that might give a picture of how chaotic or not it might turn out to be.
I hardly ever listen to podcasts, not a talk radio person anyway.

Very interesting to see The Observer backing Corbyn's plan but I really don't see how also publishing this is very helpful. Although I do understand Jeremy's frustration. pic.twitter.com/eQyDCTjwi5— Stefano Vozza (@stef_wholemeal) August 18, 2019

Bazza only has any empathy for the construction behemoths that have generously lined his pockets for decades. He's a classless, worthless piece of garbage. He's probably been an MP longer than Frank Field and in many ways he's worse than him!

I'd like to nominate him as a GNU temp leader though, if Ken dies of a heart attack after listening to a Matt Mitchell album Bazza can't be that far off Father of the House status.

him and FF have both stood in the same constituency since '79. He tries to keep a lower profile than Frank cos he loves the grift of being a professional lobbyist.

another classic bit of classic Sheermanning was in response to a local football supporters group campaigning for a dedicated safe-standing zone in the stadium was that if ppl stand up they are more likely to shout racial abuse at players - said the racist.

As a guy who's owned and played guitar my entire life (I currently own 7, including a beautiful 12 string), this is abhorrent.His left hand is grabbing the neck like he's about to strangle it rather than caress.

wait, when I played I used to hold the neck like that AFAIK. a bit like (sudden realisation, crosspost with "shockingly old when you learned" thread) I hold a pen too hard and brush my teeth too hard and other things dyspraxic people do, except such words didn't exist when I went to school
maybe that's why I could never play anything more complicated than half-speed Ramones songs

the upcoming general election (& subsequent critical years of british politics) is probably going to be decided by how much effort (and money) regular ppl on the ground put into labour's campaign. a test of whether ppl really give a shit or just want to spectate & kvetch

Corbyn refuses to rule out Labour officially remaining neutral in any second referendum on Brexit.
