Welcome to Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency 🐶🐱 This copy of In The City requires a bit of tlc, for the sleeve has unglued and there's a few marks. But it will serve you well until a better copy presents itself to you. To adopt comment, "Batman"

Rishi Sunak spoke yesterday of the need for the government, police and others to stand up against those who oppose British values. But, just what are those values? Based upon careful consideration of his governments, comments, conduct and legislation, it would seem that they include: · Racism · Discrimination, of all sorts · A tolerance of : o Misogyny o Increasing inequality o Climate change denial o Wealth built upon slavery and colonial exploitation o English nationalism to the exclusion of the Welsh, Scottish and people of Northern Ireland o Economic exploitation o Corruption o Genocide o Tax havens o Hunting with dogs · Undermining of the rule of law · Vilification of public servants · Vote rigging and gerrymandering · A refusal to honour legal obligations · A dislike of: o Those who work for a living o Social housing o The young o Those on low incomes o Those with disabilities o Single parents o Any type of non-heterosexual orientation · Intolerance of o The SNP o Plaid Cymru o The Green Party o Scotland o Wales o Northern Ireland o Ireland o The EU and all its members states o State schools o Libraries o Theatre o The arts o The NHS o Anyone claiming a benefit, including the state pension unless they also have a significant private pension as well, when doing so is just fine · Those who are members of: o The National Trust o RSPB o Oxfam o XR o A Wildlife Trust o Any faith but Christianity and Judaism, but with an honourable pass being given for Hindus right now In contrast, it would seem that supporting the following are all clear indications of holding an opinion contrary to British values: · Free and fair elections · Proportional representation · An end to discrimination in the right to vote · An end to discrimination, full stop · Respect for human rights · Respect for the rule of law · Justice · A right to economic and social equality · Free speech · The right to protest · Action to tackle climate change · Support for the Green New Deal · Religious tolerance · Social tolerance · National self-determination · The right to have enough to eat · The right to a roof over your head · Speed limits · Peace

Welcome to Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency 🐶🐱 What a remarkable voice and career. Aretha is the best, and her voice sounds strong on this very crackly record. Give it a home as its flaws will soon be irrelevant. To adopt comment, "God save the Queen"

Israel has killed over 11,500 Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7th, when 36 Israeli children were killed. It’s impossible to imagine that number. This is what it looks like. A line 5km long. (Location: Bournemouth Beach)

Tom Bradbury, "Picture a country going backwards, where workers haven't had a decent pay rise in 15 years, public services are on the verge of collapse, and the gap between rich and poor grows year on year" "That is how Britain was described today in a bleak and damming assessment of its economy. The failure to achieve all but negligible growth has left the average worker, a simply staggering, £10,000 a year worse off" "And we're now lagging way behind countries we used to think of as equals. In Germany, middle income households are 20% richer than their peers in the UK" "We'd be here all night if we listed the failings identified in the 290 page report. But put simply, in almost every sector, the UK is just not productive enough"

Oops ... when the Tory Chancellor Jeremy Hunt fails to mention its under Tory watch and 3 PMs in one parliamentary term that we have the highest inflation rate in decades, and DOUBLE oops.... the highest government debt since 1961 at 100.1% of GDP in May 2023
Sir Jeremy Hunt MP@Jeremy_Hunt

Oops…when the biggest single issue for the economy is inflation it doesn’t get ONE mention from the Shadow Chancellor? Because adding £28 bn a year to borrowing will push it up - meaning higher mortgages, higher debt interest and lower growth…

Sir Max Hastings, "Our country does seem in the eyes of the world increasingly ridiculous.. Americans and Europeans don't hate us, they look at us in disbelief.. The right is now running Britain, it's a terrifying sight.. "One would like to see Keir Starmer be bolder.. Anything is better than this farce which is making Britain look absurd in the eyes of the world. And that's a tragedy for those of us who care passionately about our country."
