Well that @christt.bsky.social gig is going to rate as one of the happiest I've been to. Proper lot of love in the room.

A truly emotional night, for us almost as much as for you. Thank you!

I've seen @christt.bsky.social play countless gigs, but last night at the 100 Club was easily the best. I sang, I cried, I started a football style chant, and also got told off by security for not joining the aftershow queue of people getting things signed so I could give him a hug. Life affirming.

One of the most pure vile, disgusting things I’ve ever heard from a ‘Labour’ politician. And that’s saying something these days, they all spout such hateful bully pulpit crapola. Any decent society would laugh this stupid person out of office.
“on article 8 of the ECHR in particular the right to family life ..we want to constrain in legislation the way that that is applied in immigration cases” Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood tells Sky’s Trevor Philips

Who would have imagined we would ever hear this from a Labour government

every single one of these emails is someone I already hate messaging a notorious pedophile to say "Thanks for the great time! I had fun doing pedophile stuff with you. P.S. Trump was there with us the whole time"

It’s Chris T-T gig and LP reissue week. Very excited. These beauties are officially released on Friday, then my first proper headline concert in almost a decade is Saturday night at the 100 Club, with my gorgeous band.

In case you missed it. Live acoustic, sweary ‘Cull’ from last month…
I taped a Cellar 92 session, had a great time with Intoxicated Pigeon in the basement. Here’s a sweary acoustic performance of ‘Cull’ from London Is Sinking…

The BBC's senior leadership resigning en masse over one dodgy edit in one programme, simply because the right wing press demands it, tells you everything you need to know about where the power really lies in that relationship

The (yes) genius of Joel Morris.
Oh I wish I’d looked after me works
And not left me legs buried in dirt
Look on them there
And ye mighty, despair
Oh I wish I’d looked after me works

Nice interview with @christt.bsky.social on Joyzine. You've got two chances to see this fine songwriter before he retires again. One is sold out, one is this Saturday as part of the best bill in Brighton.

My piece for Double Chorus about the TV drama series Riot Women, which I liked a lot more than I was expecting. doublechorus.substack.com/p/078-on-rio...
078/ on Riot Women
It’s SO tough to get fictional bands right, even very solid films and telly shows can struggle badly, but I think Riot Women nails it.
