And the first review of Retrospect is in, and it's a stonkingly amazing 9/10 from Simon Smith at Higher Plain Music @Sitorimon higherplainmusic.com/2020/11/10/mar…

@JRDixonltd Very sad to hear it. Another British business going pop as the government do as they are told and destroy destroy destroy.

Morning all. Its been a while but just wanted to finally say after 53 years we have closed the doors on #jrdixon an absolutely devastating time but we couldnt continue from increasing fuel costs and no rate movement from customers and lack of support from the shambles government

Years ago, as an impressionable 18 year old, when applying for a degree course at the University of Salford I was told that "a classically trained musician can't deal with music technology". I'm didn't listen to them, and I love it🥰. It's been my career one way of the other.

Dawn bird song. Beautiful! Just listen to it ❤️

@Benleo @Benleo - your “It wasn’t normal” hit the nail on the head. 100 percent!!!

Net migration down to 171,000 but… 600k+ non EU nationals still arrived And 250k Brits said they’d had enough and left the UK (I assume these are high skilled as they have the means to leave) Total net migration down 82% but it depends on who these arrivals are, will they be working, or just laying around waiting for their families to arrive in years to come? A win for the government or not… you decide

@harukaawake Thank you. BTW, I think we in the UK want to claim Hiroshi Suzuki (UK Ambassador) as our own. A way better statesman than anything we have at the moment.

🇯🇵🇬🇧 To my friends in the UK: I hope you keep your country safe and free. Japan stands with you against the Islamization which is currently taking place.

@nivrig I should be there around 3:30 - had a few things to do first.

@TDK_Chiptune Are you about Zzap? I have that poster with me :) Stoo has scribbled on it, be great to get you both!

@that_90s_lad @estherckrakue Mmm yep you’re right, I confused reasonable care with ‘careless’.

@TDK_Chiptune @estherckrakue Ah okay so you’ve just assumed a lot because it could be 40k plus interest it just hasn’t been mentioned, and a fine doesn’t have to be applied? If believed to be reasonable care a 0% penalty can be applied and is the most common penalty HMRC apply.

How many people do you know that can get away with underpaying £40,000 in tax to HMRC and walk away without so much as a £100 fine? Incredible.

@that_90s_lad @estherckrakue All I've heard so far is the 40k has been paid and "her actions were reasonable hence no fine" - which isn't correct. Even if the actions were reasonable, there is still a fine applicable. No mention of interest at all so far.

@TDK_Chiptune @estherckrakue Is there any evidence to suggest she didn’t get charged interest?

@Keir_Starmer The problem is you lot, the uni-party. Davos this, WEF that. No thanks.

I’ll always champion peaceful protest. But the Unite the Kingdom march organisers are peddling hatred and division. We’ve already blocked visas for far-right agitators who want to come here to spew their extremist views. They don't speak for the decent, fair, respectful Britain I know.

@Morpheus_Delphi @Telegraph 😂

@Telegraph This is horrible news, that means my computer chair is contaminated, my car, all of my clothes, my bed and sheets.....my kitchen, the garden outside, all my stuffed animals........this is dreadful

Hantavirus can remain in human semen for up to six years and has the potential for sexual transmission even after a person has recovered, according to a peer-reviewed study. 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/global-health/…

@Fiat__Justitia @TheNorfolkLion @daveatherton So true :(

@TheNorfolkLion @daveatherton Sadly, he’s wrong though. Our new society clearly rules that being a racist is more morally wrong than paedophilia. We live in a sick society.

Ricky Gervais on slavery, soo funny! 🤣

@ILoveSnooker_ Brilliant.

It’s been 33 years since Alex Higgins and John Virgo played this unforgettable private match. That final pink and the black from Higgins is simply outrageous 🔥

@HqKickclips @BROKENBRITAIN0 Fucking hell...🤡Britain.

@BROKENBRITAIN0 The fucking state of them dirty cunts

Meanwhile in the UK 🇬🇧 Footage shows a migrant taking his SIA (security licence) test with an AirPod in, whilst his migrant friend is literally in the next room telling him the answers. The next time you are in a shopping centre, and all the security guards are migrants, remember that most of them are completely UNQUALIFIED ⚠️

@BROKENBRITAIN0 And to a small child, in their uniform they look like the Police.... and we parents tell our kids when there is a problem to find a Policeman.

@nivrig Oh yeah, deffo!

@TDK_Chiptune Damn! I’ll have to bring a TT poster for you to sign :) I have one from Stoo already.

Looking forward to ZZAP! Live this weekend. It's always looked like a great event but I haven't had a chance to go before. tickettailor.com/events/fusionr… #Amiga #ZZAP #ZZAPLive #RetroGaming

@AngelaRayner @grok was this written using ai? Is so, how much. Use the posters tweets precious to 2025 to help compare.

Our party has suffered a historic defeat. Many good Labour colleagues have lost their seats despite working hard for those they represented. We have lost good Labour administrations and lost the chance for more. What we are doing isn’t working, and it needs to change. This may be our last chance. The Labour Party must now live up to our name: we must be the party of working people. We’ve heard the same on the doorstep as we’ve seen in the polls - the cost of living is the top issue for voters of all parties. People have turned to populists and nationalists because we have not done enough to fix it. Living standards are barely higher than they were a decade and a half ago. People feel hopeless - that the cost of living crisis will never end, and now they see oil and gas companies use global instability to post record profits. Once again, ordinary people are paying the price for decisions they didn’t make. It’s no wonder that across the UK, working people feel the system is rigged against them. Things can be so much better than this. Countries including Spain and Canada have shown that economies can grow and people can thrive when governments stay true to labour and social democratic values and put people first. We need to learn from that. In London, we lost young people who fear they will never afford a home. In my patch and across the north, we lost working people whose wages are too low and costs too high. In Scotland and Wales, people do not currently see Labour as the answer.  We are in danger of becoming a party of the well-off, not working people. The Peter Mandelson scandal showed a toxic culture of cronyism.  Decisions like cutting winter fuel allowance just weren’t what people expected from a Labour government. For too long, successive governments have allowed wealth and power to concentrate at the top without a plan to ensure the benefits of economic growth are shared fairly. The result is an economy that does not work for the majority, with wealth concentrated in too few hands. This level of inequality, alongside squeezed living standards, is the outcome of a model built on deregulation, privatisation, and trickle-down economics. But we have the chance to fix this.  1/2

@PolitlcsUK He's going to try and pull in the 'Remainers', of which I was one but have since changed my mind.

🚨 NEW: A preview of Keir Starmer's speech tomorrow as he tries to convince Labour MPs to keep him as PM "To meet the challenges that our country faces, incremental change won't cut it. On growth, defence, Europe, energy - we need a bigger response than we anticipated in 2024 because these are not ordinary times. "Strength through fairness. It’s a core Labour argument. And you will see those values writ large in the King’s Speech, and you will see hope, urgency and exactly whose side we are on. "People need hope. We will face up to the big challenges and we will make the big arguments: the Labour case that only Labour values and Labour policies can ensure our country not only weathers these storms, but emerges stronger and fairer. "This Labour Government will be defined by rebuilding our relationship and by putting Britain at the heart of Europe, so that we are stronger on the economy, on trade, on defence, you name it. Because standing shoulder to shoulder with the countries that most share our interests, our values, and our enemies - that is the right choice for Britain. That is the Labour choice"

I wish there was as much attention given to child grooming and rape gangs in the UK, as there is with our Agenda 30 pushing Government puppets as to which puppet does or does not take over from the previous puppet. Don't get me started on new arrivals and their alleged complicity
