The @TheCBSO are brilliant !

“A spectacular performance from the CBSO, however the audio dialogue and sound effects of the films, are drowned out at times.” Star Wars Live in Concert, CBSO, Symphony Hall, Birmingham, Oct 24-26, 4☆☆☆☆. Review: @DanAuluk @TheCBSO @BMusic_Ltd https://t.co/etFTqq0eJJ

Great opportunity  for a composer who likes fun, and would be interested in setting some slightly raunchy words. Check me https://t.co/oAUuFh8qxK. Or DM. Thanks.

I am preparing a new show of miniature poetry dramas, unique work within LGBT umbrella.  Unravelling My Parts.. Am looking for a composer for a couple of lyrics as I want to include a group of songs, a couple of others already written and set.

@UKLabour has ambition to raise Defence spending to 3%. Important at these changed times. Perhaps the time has come for @RachelReevesMP to raise income tax, say, 1p on standard an additional 1p on higher rate.  ; making a slight adjustment to the threshold to help lowest paid.

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

Superb statement in the House of Commons from @Keir_Starmer today on Ukraine and defence. It sets out the path to 2.5 and then to 2.6% on defence. And sets out very clearly our position for Trump. Also, it will be of great security for Zelensky. Excellent stuff.

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

Today I have a first meeting of the team with whom I’ll work on a potential exciting new theatre project, Unravelling My Parts Through Dreams and Nightmares.  Let’s see if the team like the title.  It may change as we begin to work through material. #WritingCommunity

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

Increasingly I notice how rude representatives of the Trump Presidency are becoming.  All taking their lead from him; rude, arrogant, bombastic, domineering.

#trumpshambles

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

@Keir_Starmer has said exactly the right thing, that he will commit UK troops  to the Ukraine peacekeeping.  Europe must unite on this. #peace

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

@Keir_Starmer is right to come out in support of Ukraine eventually becoming a NATO member.  Membership is a decision for Ukraine and ALL NATO members.  Not for Trump and Putin.

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

The press are unrelenting in their desire to get @RachelReevesMP , Labour Chancellor out of office.  This includes the @BBCNews which has for days presented half facts as full facts.  Which equals a lie. #truth

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

Taking more steps today trying to bring strands together to weave into threads for a new unusual performance event, Unravelling Our Parts.  Slowly coming together. #WritingCommunity #performance

[Roderick Dungate @Rod_Dungate]

Why is the UK not retaliating to Trump’s threat of 25% tariff on steel and aluminium.  This does not show as a clever negotiating ploy but as weakness.  Which encourages Trump to go further.  Get your act together @UKLabour and impose tariffs of our own.
