@bo66ie29 Well there certainly used to be a caravan and camp site there, and it was fantastic. We holidayed there several times in the late 60s - early 70s.

Should have mentioned, I was listening to the first part of the broadcast, Górecki's Three Pieces in Old Style, when I wrote my tweet!

Poulenc's 'Gloria' on right now. The BBC National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales and conductor Michał Nesterowicz. Utterly gorgeous music. @BBCRadio3

Bravo to all involved. Just fabulous.

One thing the situation in Iran has made crystal clear is that whichever country, regime, group or political ideology, no matter how vile, disgusting or repressive, however many people are massacred or exterminated, as long as they are anti-West, specifically anti-US (and by extension anti-Israel), they will have the unquestioning support of the majority of the liberal left and the entertainment world.

The same “progressive left” who happily live in the west, profit from its relative freedoms, yet turn their activism on and off like a switch, or in some cases, even make a living out of it.

It is disappointing and exhausting.

But grateful to all those who have spoken out. Especially in the comedy community. It takes a lot of guts to do so when everyone around you is looking the other way.

Based on verification of images, reports and comparative investigative analysis by the International Centre for Human Rights, to date approximately 43,000 people have been killed, 350,000 injured, 20,000 arrested and await possible execution.

“Taken together, ICHR believes that this body of evidence, methods, and data presents a clear picture of a systematic and organized campaign of repression and mass killing; one that may silence the streets in the short term, but will not resolve the underlying crisis.

Silence by the international community in the face of such violent repression and crimes against humanity will only enable the repetition and escalation of these atrocities.”
