As I look forward to seeing Bruce #Springsteen and the E Street Band at Wembley this Summer, watched 'Springsteen and I' DVD last night. I was at Hyde Park show 2012 when Paul McCartney joined Bruce onstage.

Get involved in what happens in politics because it’s already totally involved in what happens to you.

Today it's my turn on the blog tour for Reinventing Democracy by David Kauders. Here's my review:

'Sovereignty should be redefined as sovereignty of the people of each of the nations of the UK' quoted from Reinventing Democracy, see sparklingbooks.com/rd.html

Last night Bruce gave me the ultimate sign everything would be ok by giving me his Harmonica!
I am reaching out to all Bruce fans to see if anyone has any footage of him handing it to me! Spring-Nuts #bruce springsteen #springsteen #theboss #cork #bruce

#LizTruss and #MiddleEarth are both trending.

Does her deep state conspiracy go even deeper than we realised?

Not at all scientific myself, but currently finding 'Longitude' by Dava Sobel a fascinating read. An accessible account of the problem, which brings to life the personalities involved.

The strangest of all Beatles albums. Half of it is made up of previously released songs, throwaways and hidden gems, the other half features no Beatles. And with the speed they, and the whole decade, moved it was old hat the day it was released. Should have been a 4 song E.P imo

it's quite something to see the Conservatives waffle on about lanyards and sex education while people in Brixham are queuing to access clean drinking water devonlive.com/news/devon-new…

The national media might admire a party leadership trashing democracy to stitch up the left and exclude Jeremy Corbyn, but locally, where elections are won, it doesn’t go down so well.

For clarificaton, it's not just #Brixham that is affected by the #cryptosporidium outbreak. Large areas of Paignton are affected too.
Even after the notice to boil was issued, the media kept on reporting it as Brixham & Alston. The message did not get through to many.

Today is #LevellersDay .

In May 1649, 340 soldiers of the new model army were locked inside Burford church.

Have made the Herald diary. My work here is done…😉

I keep humming Santa Claus is Comin' to Town. My colleagues are going to think I'm losing it and I don't think explaining that an elderly singer from New Jersey played it in Ireland yesterday will make it sound less insane

It's not that these Tories are awful.

(They are. They are staggeringly incompetent, dishonest and corrupt. Many of them have knowingly led the country toward poverty and isolation for their own short term gain, and therefore can reasonably be described as traitors.)

Yes Siobhan!!

You will be such an asset! Becoming a rep is a great way to be the change you wish to see in the workplace! 👊

Today marks a critical moment: the NHS pay award for 2024-25 is overdue. Undermining nursing pay jeopardises patient care. It's time to prioritise & value our nursing staff. Fair pay isn't just essential for recruitment & retention—it's a lifeline for safer staffing & quality
