@NUFCCrues The two on the left are top contenders for me in that “most listened to” category. Difficult to pin down what the others would be. “Exile On Main St”, “Achtung Baby” and “Songs For Swingin’ Lovers”, “Blood On The Tracks” are up there.

@SandyofSuffolk @SimonFoxWriter It’s a shame she can’t stand as an independent and win, but unfortunately so many people are just ignorant of local issues and just go out and vote for a party label instead of a capable person.

The Green Party. I have a friend who's a councillor for the Green Party. She's a wonderful hard working woman. She helped householders whose houses were flooded a couple of years ago, stayed up all night helping them pump their houses out and move furniture; helped volunteers clear the river of debris; got all new planters and bins for the village square; attends all village events; opposes all development applications on farmland and green belt; gives immediate attention to any problems people are having; got new road signage. I could go on and on. She'd actually make a great MP. She cares about her village, her people and the environment. Unfortunately, she's not standing for re-election because her party, she says, has been infiltrated by lunatics and anti-Semites. Isn't that sad. ☹️

NEW Attorney General Lord Hermer - one of the country’s most senior Jewish politicians - wades into the row over Muslims praying in Trafalgar Square, saying: “Nick Timothy has said that mass prayer in public places is an act of ‘domination’. But when he and Kemi Badenoch were questioned about his appalling views, they seemed to only have an issue with Muslim events. “Timothy and Badenoch’s comments beg the question – would they have a problem if I as a Jewish man, were praying in public? Or is it just Muslim prayer they find offensive, and contrary to ‘British values’?” “The Conservative Party, like Reform and Tommy Robinson, is seeking to divide Britain. Instead, they should be celebrating our brilliantly welcoming and diverse country.” More at @GBNEWS.

Vodka & Seledka 🇬🇧@seledka_vodka·
Excellent article. Here are a few builds. First, it must be pointed out that Islam - not some extreme variant, but bog-standard orthodox Islam as preached and practised in Britain - rejects any notion of integration or ideological compromise with other religions or cultural norms that contradict its edicts. The doctrine of al-wala' wal-bara' commands loyalty to the faith and disavowal of non-Muslim ways. The Prophet's own hadith warns that "whoever imitates a people is one of them." Muslims are expected to reject man-made structures and "innovation," and to accept the barbarities of the Quran and the Hadith as divinely sanctioned prescriptions for how life must be lived. No radical fringe is required to reach these conclusions. The mainstream canon gets you there on its own. Second, when Muslims form a majority in a territory, they are divinely instructed to impose Islamic rule on everyone. If you belong to the "people of the book" - another Abrahamic faith - you may be permitted to live, provided you pay a poll tax (jizya) to the Muslim rulers in a state of, as the Quran specifies, humiliation. Ibn Kathir's commentary on this verse is unambiguous: the jizya exists to demonstrate the subjugation of non-Muslims to Islamic authority. If you are a Hindu, Islam considers you a pagan, and even under the most lenient schools of jurisprudence, your status under Islamic rule is one of codified subjugation - discriminatory taxation, legal inequality, prohibition on building temples, inability to testify against a Muslim in court, and periodic persecution. The "tolerant" version of Islam is tolerance in the sense of "we will permit you to exist under conditions we dictate," not tolerance in the sense of equal standing before the law. As for leaving Islam, the Prophet's instruction is plain: "whoever changes his religion, kill him." All four Sunni schools of jurisprudence agree. Abu Bakr's wars against apostates were fought within a year of the Prophet's death. The only reason we are not all living under these arrangements is that Muslims are - for now - a minority in Britain. Third, public Islamic prayer is, as Nick says, political - and has been since the Prophet's time. Islam does not recognise a distinction between religious and political life. The Friday sermon was historically the platform from which caliphs proclaimed authority and issued edicts. The call to prayer is prescribed to be heard by the community. The separation of church and state is a uniquely Reformation-driven Western achievement, and Islam explicitly repudiates it. Communal public prayer in a non-Muslim land is therefore an assertion of presence, of dominance, and of rejection of the norms of the host nation - whether every individual participant intends it as such or not. Fourth, we owe precisely zero explanations for why we resent this. Zero. We do not have to be rational about it. We do not have to draw comparisons with other religions. Any explanation we give is the right one, because it is our land, and we govern it as we see fit. But I will give you my reasons. While I am an atheist and regard all religion as a collection of mostly rubbish - and religious belief as a species of derangement - Britain's culture and values have been steeped in Christianity. This includes our laws, which are inseparable from our culture. We may not be as Christian as we were fifty years ago, but anyone born in this country who was not shielded from it (as a great many Muslims are, thanks to their parents) will have absorbed some of Christianity's gifts into their cultural DNA. Islam is the antithesis of all of this. Its canonical texts prescribe the striking of disobedient wives, value a woman's testimony at half a man's, mandate amputation for theft, flogging for fornication, and stoning for adultery. Its most authenticated hadith collections contain explicit antisemitism - including a prophecy that Muslims will hunt and kill Jews at the end of times, with even the stones and trees calling out to betray those in hiding. It is violently hostile to other faiths, to non-belief, and to apostasy. It rejects secular democratic rule as a matter of doctrine. It has resisted reformation for fourteen centuries. And it has produced decades of relentless terrorism - against us and, by an even greater margin, against fellow Muslims. From the Algerian civil war to the sectarian slaughter in Iraq, from Boko Haram to the Taliban, from the Peshawar school massacre to the Manchester Arena bombing, the body count is staggering, and the majority of the dead are Muslim. The violence is structural. It is doctrinal. Western foreign policy did not create it. Islam is foreign to us. It is completely and utterly repulsive as an ideology. And the reason I happen to have Muslim friends, and have got on exceptionally well with Muslim colleagues, is that they were never hugely religious.

I will not be silenced. Labour are only demonstrating that they cannot see right from wrong. They will not stand up for our way of life. But we will.

@PhilScribe @christopherhope Thanks for your kind words, but I'm not going to support the Christian cancel culture of bigots. Is it Romans 15:7 I'm looking for here..?

@LeapfrogMark @christopherhope Nick Timothy has written a piece in The Telegraph which comprehensively explains the difference between these Islamic displays and those of other religions - you should perhaps read it instead of sounding off like a virtue signalling twit.

Excellent takedown of the horrible, horrible disingenuous little creep that is the mayor of London.
Josh Howie@joshxhowie

A few points about this clip of @MayorofLondon. 1/ Invoking Christianity as a reason to be tolerant of other religious expression is perhaps not a good idea when the religion in question is not tolerant. 2/ He’s worried these ideas are no longer ‘far-right’ but now mainstream. The real concern is that strategies to shut down legitimate debate about Islam are no longer working. 3/ Trying to use Rishi Sunak to shame the Tories does the opposite. He was voted leader on his merits, not his ethnicity. Same with Kemi Badenoch. As was John Major. This just proves the issue here is ideology not racism. What One Nation in Islam means is that everyone follows Islam. 4/ The chutzpah of invoking Jews and Hindus. Two groups who don’t fare well when it comes to the tolerance of Islam. Especially when Sadiq Khan has been partly responsible for allowing Muslims to call for the death of Jews week in week out for over two years.

@MarkHeath45 @NickN95601 What is a real shame ( I say this is an old geezer) is that she is quite a cute girl and would be a great wife for some lad if she hadn’t been brainwashed with this ridiculous garbage. They are puppets. We will be taken over within a generation if people don’t start waking up.

Absolute travesty what the UK has become. I preferred the greens when they were all about being eco friendly. Now they are just insufferable, virtue signalling, woke appeasing, Islam loving, banner waving, titty enlarging, bed wetting, brain dead muppets!!

@poshmadonna @bvodm It is common for her to end an album in ways that are introspective, spiritual, or unresolved. COADF ends with a hypnotic comedown. It seems quite deliberate to me. She is very intentional with track placement.

@poshmadonna @bvodm Skipping Madonna tracks is always a bad idea because some of them reveal themselves over time and you can suddenly start to appreciate them, even though you previously considered them to be weak.

@philip_hal20089 @MugginsMcS @NUFCCrues @delirious7676 He was co-writer on a few and apparently he did actually contribute. It wasn’t a case of just being given a credit. He worked on “You’ll Be Gone” with Elvis, which is believed to be the only song where Elvis did songwriting (as opposed to a credit for financial reasons)

Lowe is on the lower end of grey matter and character. If that. But he thinks his followers are even lower. That is his shtick. All the cartoonish " I don't give a ****, or I don't care etc", is the usual temper tantrum when people are caught in falsehoods. He just throws it alongside as a sort of disclaimer.

I’ve been called racist and islamophobic hundreds of times today for outlining Restore Britain’s policy on banning halal slaughter, the burqa, sharia law, cousin marriage and plenty more. I want to be really clear about our party’s official response. We do not give a shit.

@1973to1975 @Sage_Wise_Dude @TheExtremeMusi1 The answer is that all those albums came afterwards. The Beatles led the way for self-contained songwriting bands, and their compositions and performances are still great, regardless of the current contrarian fashion to claim they are “overrated”.

@Sage_Wise_Dude @TheExtremeMusi1 Huh? First four Zep albums, at least as many Floyd albums and Stones albums and Blondie albums, the Clash, Doors. So many far superior albums. Probably way into three figures. What's so cosmic about Rubber Soul?
