My musical hero has died. RIP Danny Thompson, the man who inspired me to pick up the double bass. Here he is with John Martyn who, it transpires, used to live up the next close to me in Glasgow. youtu.be/uvCU1U2rhB0?...

So, Farage is a spokesperson for Trump and Trump is a spokesperson for Putin. It’s, quite ironically, like a game of Russian dolls. Except instead of dolls they’re ugly treacherous cunts.
