I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

If James has the empty box, I think there's STILL a possibility of Stephen and Rachel BOTH winning, even being the last two standing. But a lot of shade and side-eye required on the last day.

Rachel and Stephen won as Traitors by knowing that throwing each other under the bus won't work; there isn't a bus stop for miles.

Have asked a number of NEC members to tell me the chances Andy Burnham has of being selected to fight a by-election.
Every single one says zero.

‘We wouldn’t still be playing if we’d got stinking rich’: the Damned celebrate 50 years of punk, goth and holy grail hunting
