He’s a brilliant Mayor and if he stands again I will vote for him again.

He’s brilliant at keeping our city unified. Not a marginalised group he doesn’t stand up for,defend and celebrate in my city.

He’s a bold leader

Just stop.

Like you don’t know how to fucking cook eggs.

Just not credible

It’s all the Celtic chaos sounds isn’t it

Not sure. Lots going on. Complex and rich sounds

I can’t remember the one you sing at a keyboard. I’m honestly not being or trying to be rude, but has to be influenced by Billy Joel

I thought I’d get through it in an hour or two last weekend. Volume wise just wasn’t possible.

Anything with harmonica pricks my ears up.

Community tunes

Really lovely noise. Lyrics above and beyond

Is it insulting if I say there’s a Lloyd Cole and the Commotions vibe. Just lyrically.

People used to write their stuff down and I’m very glad you have

I’m not going to critique every song / tune am I but I have listened to most now.

Lots of noises I love. The Waterboys for example.

Great sound. Orchestrally right. But best instrument in the world will forever be human voice telling stories. Storyteller

I want you to keep doing that

Love it

I’m noting your Ms.

In days when pronouns were pronouns and we didn’t need a name badge or course to just respect how to address an envelope.

I think you’ve all gone fucking mad quite frankly

Just? No. It’s not just. It’s intrusion and abuse of power and I’d tear the whole edifice down. Quite frankly Mrs Hedgehog.
It’s no good.

Not terribly sure why people can’t mind their own fucking business vis a vis personal stuff. Arguably celebs sell all their stuff. I just don’t agree.

Journalism as is now is just gutter filth trying to tear people down. It will come back to haunt them I hope

Build em upTear em down

Evil sport

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?
