@AaronBastani @michaeljswalker @sunraysunray Abolition of the value form as a day 1 manifesto pledge or it's a no from me and the other advanced workers I'm afraid.

'Sharpe' is some of the best telly ever

@davidgriffith17 Big fan! I sometimes do their version of Negative Approach's 'Ready to Fight'. The Jeffrey Lewis Crass covers album is really good too, worth a go if you're that way inclined

@ted_splitter Cool mate! (i had my money of Woody being on the list) you might like this its country meets crass youtube.com/watch?v=Wr0gKg…

It was to be playing out in short sleeves for a while with the sun out, but that was, on the whole, a shite day's busking. Moneywise anyway.

@davidgriffith17 Pogues, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, trad stuff, Billy Bragg, Woody Guthrie, Holy Modal Rounders, the odd punk song. Mostly weird folk and country.

@ted_splitter What sort of stuff do u busk?

@BurgessCon43993 @BBCNews Do you have specific people in mind? People have always come here by all sorts of means. Hopefully they settle down and start chipping in ASAP, if they're of working age they will sooner or later

@ted_splitter @BBCNews Even the ones that arrive by dinghy and cost us a fortune?🤣

State pension age starts rising to 67 - here's how much you get and when bbc.in/4m6ZZJe

@LifeOfBrianGO @BBCNews In every crisis there are people paid to blame it on immigrants, you can see it all through history and you can see who benefits and why it's lucrative for those who always benefit from the system, to blame minorities.

@ted_splitter @BBCNews Silly Edward

@emmacpicken @ZackPolanski Abolish the libel laws.

@ZackPolanski This is libel. Do you have assets?

Spoke to my family today - all refused to talk to you. You then started hunting down random "anon" relatives. People are holding your shit rag accountable. You've not just "touched a nerve." You've absolutely spurred on a movement ready to take on the Daily Mail. Congrats.

“At least we died with honour” It’s extraordinary how few people in British politics, who cheered on this nutty war, understand this mindset. They still think everyone in the Middle East really wants to live in Dubai and post luxury cars on Instagram.

@BurgessCon43993 @BBCNews Migrants are tax payers, migration is not a net cost to the economy. The rich are.

@BBCNews Maybe if the country wasn’t spending over £8bn per year supporting scrounging migrants we could pay our own tax payers a decent pension

@Pete_Bassist @BBCNews It's not migrants hoarding the cash it's the rich

@BBCNews You get a pittance, half the minimum wage and yet "people" on here moan about that and not the billions we throw at migrants..

@LifeOfBrianGO @BBCNews Immigration nothing to do with it you mug

@BBCNews Welfare state on the edge of bankruptcy. Thanks to government’s immigration policy over the last 35 years. What a mess we’re in.

@BBCNews Nothing ever, at best something for my kids from the private pensions the government forced us all to take, but I'm gonna have to work till I die for this fucking system. Shit world.

Because the SWP and SP, for all my in some cases quite major disagreements with them, are committed to the socialist transformation of society, whereas Walsall Community Independents have such a thin conception of a common political understanding they let ex-Tories in.

@BBCr4today The main thing is, keep him and his mates rich.

Former BP chief Lord Browne says the North Sea oil fields should be expanded, and the UK needs 'diversified' energy sources to tackle the crisis caused by the Iran war.

@sq9wjg @TylerMcKni82633 @Pontifex Eh, it's a bit of a stretch

@ted_splitter @TylerMcKni82633 @Pontifex You are right, but let me reiterate. The Umayyad caliphate is imperialist in the strongest meaning of the word. Racially supremacist, expansive, violent and exploitative. Boko Haram looks up to the Umayyad caliphate (or Ottoman or others which are same) as a political ideal.

The cross is part of the mission. The imperialist occupation of the world is disrupted from within; the violence that until now has been the law is unmasked. The poor, imprisoned, and rejected Messiah descends into the darkness of death, yet in so doing He brings a new creation to light. #HolyThursday

Most moral army in the world shot Muhammad’s thumbs off after learning he was only 2 weeks away from becoming a surgeon.

16 procédures ouvertes contre Rima Hassan sur simples dénonciations des amis de Netanyahu. Dont 13 classées sans suite depuis. Hier encore : 15 heures de garde à vue. Et une fuite mensongère sur un usage de drogue donnant un flot de bandeaux télé et visuels de presse écrite. 12 fois de suite sur BFM ! La télé de l’armateur est désormais bien repérée pour ses outrances. Harcèlement judiciaire, garde à vue au mépris de l’immunité parlementaire, policiers tantôt bavards, tantôt inactifs devant un traquenard de Nemesis comme à Lyon, interdiction la veille de la 40e édition d’une rencontre annuelle des musulmans pour des raisons extérieures à elle, aussitôt annulée par la justice ? Et des médias relayant tout sans recul. Quel pays sommes-nous devenus sous Macron ?

@sq9wjg @TylerMcKni82633 @Pontifex I don't think the comparison works. Britain, France and America are imperialist. Boko Haram is a lot of bad things but isn't imperialist.

@ted_splitter @TylerMcKni82633 @Pontifex They want to be imperialist, but aren't good at it.

Judging by their other recordings they deffo didn't. @morgopolo as a studio dwelling punk drum man what's your take on these unique drums

Must be an electronic kit rather than programmed patterns? Must have been a fancy piece of equipment to be sitting in a recording studio in Cardiff in 1984. Can't imagine they had the resources to use expensive studios

Day two of rinsing this yobbo classic, the Oppressed's first album, from 1984. The drum machine is controversial but I like the sound of it! Roddy's vocals are absolutely ferocious throughout. Love it.
