Will Trump get away with this, though? My guess is the international community will timidly look at their shoes, establishing Trump's impunity. And a US backed Putin pushes westwards.

No, the Epstein files distract from this. Trump spoke with Putin recently, now this. This challenges foreign govts to condemn Trump. They won't, because they're lickspittles. This action sets a precedent for Putin to act in the same way in Ukraine, and then onwards to the rest of Europe etc.

As previously noted: if Rebecca Long-Bailey had won that leadership election then it seems quite likely to me that we would now be in the second term of the Johnson government, oblivious to the scandals, and “Partygate” would still just be some photos saved on a phone in Dominic Cummings’ desk.

Listen to this - it'll knock your socks off.

Bluefish. It's just bluefish.

This is a beautiful piece, Sean.

A direct, and pleasing, lift of bits from the first Sea Nymphs album.

Apart from Wes, who inexplicably seems to be the chosen heir, as the only principle Starmer seems to have is to appease malevolent voices to show them he's on their side and hope it works.

Ha! Yes, I see exactly what you mean, I couldn't place it!

Then you're in luck. If you go to the Bandcamp page for Cardiacs, there is a full list of contributors, track list and more!

Don't think in terms of a current lineup, Cardiacs is Cardiacs! They get drafted in and out as needed. The new addendum to the history section of the website puts it beautifully. x

I think it was to Marina and Sean @organmagazine.bsky.social So good to hear the finished article!

Excited. Was just a bit too little to see the 6 piece lineup.

Sounds Larcombe-esque!

Yes, and yes! Stick with it just a little longer.

That looks like Donald Cox to me.
