@dan_zafrir@laura_lbb1957@SafaiDarya Well if they don’t fight the radicals they are complicit in the radicals extremism views. Hiding behind the “I’m scared” narrative baths the moderates hands in the blood of oppressed women, LGBTQ+ people and Jewish people. Stand up for what you believe or you don’t believe it
@SafaiDarya Fuck Mohamed and Islam! Why should I kowtow to a ridiculous, illogical fantasy ideology that oppresses gay people, women, Jewish people and everyone who does not follow their silly rules? We all need to speak out about these religions that seek to repress others
@IanLevine It was an important record that spawned so many copies. In a lot of ways that was the music of my “youth” - certainly my gay youth. My ultimate interests where more with the Krautrock and German 1970s electronic music but the High Energy movement was great fun to dance to
@immarkosullivan Before I saw Nigel in the painting, I was thinking “Benidorm” but after seeing the painting I was thinking things like “misguided” “weird” “wtaf”. I wonder what other politicians have portraits of them in pubs? Or is it just Donald and Nige that get this?
@robinrimbaud It was a great series. The music was a big factor in its greatness. I insisted that my Mum and Dad take me to Avebury for my birthday day out. Went there again last year. It’s a wonderfully evocative place.
@ianboddy When you think about it - the only reason any surgery works is because the body has an amazing ability to heal itself. It’s great and right, to praise the surgeons but we should all praise our bodies that mostly fix themselves before we know we’ve gone wrong :-)
@Ben_Aaronovitch I’m glad you asked this question. We will be passing through Aberdeen in September and it’s good to know where to go if we are stabbed :-)
I can’t wait for this Scottish story!!!
@mylarmelodies@bluedotfestival@Ticketline I hope you feel better soon. You’ve done the right thing to not take risk to others. The DFAM comes preloaded with antibodies for nearly all infectious diseases so I’m sure he’ll be totally safe if you want to hug him :-)
