Whilst it can easily be argued that Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain" is probably the best sports intro song going (Formula 1), I would argue that The Doug Wood Band's "Drag Racer" (snooker) runs it very close indeed:

Are there any makes of (new) car that still attract the considerate driver in the way that Volvo and Saab used to? With Saab gone and Volvo heading upmarket one rarely sees anything driven sensibly any more. Even Skodas seem to be piloted rather furiously these days.😔
Dacia, perhaps?🚗

I don't think it's slander, and definitely not communism, when you just need to open your eyes and look at the evidence. And is it really wrong to use the term "overthrow" against an *unelected* official? 😒
