OK, joke's over. Like many friends and colleagues, I've concluded that I can't, in all conscience, continue to endorse a platform that has become so dark and poisonous. I'll be closing this account soon but you'll still find me on IG (and maybe elsewhere before long!)

Indebted to @BBCOne 1pm TV report on @QuincyDJones' sad passing for revealing that Off The Wall made @michaeljackson a star. I mean, who remembers any of his previous solo smash hits or his years with the world-conquering Jackson 5?😠

Always a thrill to write liner notes for @RollingStones this time for Welcome To Shepherd's Bush, out Dec 6 + featuring the brilliant club date I saw in '99. "Twenty-five years later, the crossfire hurricane that blew across London that night roars again" https://t.co/NRfREmZ3QV

On Nov 21st, @philmanzanera and I will be on stage @soundloungeCIC talking about his fascinating memoir Revolución to Roxy (I know, I've just finished reading it). You can ask Phil a question and get him to sign your copy! Tickets https://t.co/p6QsFNEivg https://t.co/qBvWH1ZajP

This is glorious. Can't wait for the album.

An excerpt from the @CommonsCMS report on Grassroots Music Venues.

Should have an answer on point 43 by this time tomorrow… #Oasis

In case you’re wondering, I don’t know what that answer is. @DCMS @lisanandy @RhonddaBryant

[Paul Sexton @psexton3]

@JasNatBod @suttonunited @altrinchamfc @NationalLeague Yeah I don’t regret writing that yet, because we haven’t kicked off 😉

[Paul Sexton @psexton3]

New season, new players, new pitch, new hope! @suttonunited v @altrinchamfc @NationalLeague

[Paul Sexton @psexton3]

@Dannythechamp What a lovely album. Unfairly doomed to obscurity although, looking into it, she did have some supporters at FM radio in the US at the time x
