  1. Traditionally its the Labour vote that is supposed to be shy of bad weather I really don't think Bone standing or not will have any effect past a few hundred Tories will be squeezed out by Reform standing and normal Tory voters sitting on their hands with a low turnout (I'd be shocked if it was over 35%) Labour voters will be much more likely to vote because of the particular circumstances, also LibDems are also likely to lend their vote Labour in this bye-election as the LibDems are clearly the third party here The real question for seats like this is what will the former Tory voters do come a General Election
  2. Probably still in the trash can anyway, I wonder how many people purge their trash regularly
  3. I have 12 point in it with absolutely zero on the bench to come on
  4. I've seen the Ozrics a few times, I think I'd be more appreciative of them now than I was then
  5. Emlyn Hughes and Gareth Edwards was the dream team, went downhill after 1981
  6. They started to be described as "White reggae" when the first two albums went massive That pissed me off no end
  7. We should be thankful for The Police, if it weren't for their success, Stewarts brother Miles would never have founded IRS Records and that would mean possibly that REM, The Cramps, The Bangles and The Go-Gos would have slipped through the net. The label also gave many UK artists as US label, such as The Fall, Fine Young Cannibals, The Stranglers, The Damned, The Beat, General Public, Magazine... I have no real opinion on Stewart Copeland but as he clearly detests Sting, I'm OK with that
  8. For lovers of Album artwork, Pink Floyd, some shit band called Wings, Led Zep and more. Documentary by Anton Corbijn Check out “Squaring the Circle (The Story of Hipgnosis)” on Netflix Not watched it yet but I may remedy that shortly. Edit: about 25 mins in right now, very good so far.
  9. It’s also good to see that the VT bollitics massive hasn’t lost their collective shit over Sunak’s Election this year comment like certain members of the press and the general public.
  10. Nothing of the sort will be required for this bye-election. I’d be amazed if the turnout was above 35%
  11. I think we'll have to change the VT word filter as we’re going to have a new Representative for Wellingborough. Peter Bone subject to a recall petition and his electors have decided a new election should be held. It'll be a big mountain to climb for Labour but they have won here before.
  12. It seems the SNP have decided they need a Brain Drain 45% Tax band for people earning over £75,000 per year
  13. Not entirely true, there are mechanical royalties too I.e. for performing on the track Nowhere near as lucrative and often bought out at the time but the concept does exist
  14. Wouldn’t matter, this whole factory reset and lost phone nonsense needs to be called out. Get yourself a new phone, hell even just delete whatsapp and then reinstall it. Did those WhatsApp’s suddenly magically reappear? I'm guessing they probably are, the messages are held by Meta and not the device Have any journos pointed this out yet?
  15. Oh have you heard the one about the £40mil a year helicopter contract that Ben Wallace as Defence Secretary was cancelling? It might come as a bit of a shock but it was the helicopter squadron that ferries around Sunak and other ministers. It suddenly got uncancelled when Grant Whateverhisnameisthisweek took over the role
  16. I’m fairly confident not making money was never part of the deal. Profit from chaos and all that.
  17. She was honest with the government and lied to the media. You don’t know what she told the government Edit: She could for example have said to the government, I'm gonna buy shit loads of cheap non-useable PPE from China and make shitloads of money, anyone else up for it?
  18. Can I have the Lat / Long of the location please, need to order…
  19. Because next summer they are expected to have the promised modern NATO (relatively) jets as air support, which they currently lack
  20. She’s no longer a member of the Tory Party too apparently. The lacy fingerless gloves are off
  21. Ican't see how they can't remove it, which is a bit of a shit one for me as my bare bones team had three players and 12 points
