Aw fuck. I'd been hoping to go and see Soft Cell when they toured their next album. Really sad news. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Soft Cell co-founder Dave Ball dies, aged 66

The musician, best known for Tainted Love and Say Hello, Wave Goodbye, died in his sleep at home.

I thought the addition of a Terminator was a controversial decision but you know what? It worked. 😁

One big thing in their favour is they stuck together - they didn't quit on him.

I'll say this for him - his team didn't quit on him.

I think whoever does it needs a Strictly link so Anton deffo but I hope Clara Amfo gets a shot. She's pigeon holed and underrated.

She's 35...

We've avoided the worst case scenario which would be Tess staying and being joined by her husband.

Not looking forward to next year's #Strictly hosted by an AI chatbot of Sir Bruce Forsyth and Katie Price (who'll only do the first couple of weeks then stop turning up because she's gone to Dubai).

There are two "third rail" subjects in English football that the national media (not you guys!) will never touch because they already know what they'll find & because it'll derail the whole gravy train..

Corruption (Inc officials) and performance enhancing drug use.

I already think football is bent. Decisions like that pen will hopefully convert a few more of you. #Boro #UTB

why did this take two fucking days though? did the Prime Minister have his notifications switched off? was he stuck in the bath? why, exactly, is this obviously true thing something that apparently needs running past the boss anyway? what is *wrong* with their comms operation?

NEW: Labour condemn Tory plan to strip people of indefinite leave to remain:

“It’s utterly grotesque that Tories want to deport people with the lawful right to be here to achieve ‘cultural coherence’.

“This policy would mean tearing families apart and ripping out our neighbours from communities."

Anna Turley MP, Labour Party Chair, said:

“It’s utterly grotesque that Tories want to deport people with the lawful right to be here to achieve ‘cultural coherence’.

“This policy would mean tearing families apart and ripping out our neighbours from communities.

“That’s Tory Party policy and shows how far the party has fallen. The Tories haven’t learned a thing.”

Please note this was the work of enemy bombers, not of the country’s own prime minister.

Did you know the Commons Chamber was destroyed in the Blitz?

Oh absolutely, but a lot of commentary (on Trump as well as Reform) overlooks or ignores this (to me) obvious facet - or tiptoes around it.

And that's how you end up with "We share their concerns".

Guy BOO!-ley @guybailey.bsky.social · 1d

Same reason they appeal to over 60s - they give their supporters permission to be their worst selves and call foreigners names in public without fear or threat of social reprimand.
