So much to love about this #ChallengeCupFinal. A thrilling game, and most importantly of all for rugby league fans, SO MUCH TO MOAN ABOUT. Which is of course what rugby league fans love to do most of all
Is there some way the government could step in and break news of great musicians’ deaths at a maximum frequency of only once a week maximum? Just seems way over that right now and we need a decent period of mourning for each of them. Just too overwhelming. #ripcroz
So sad to hear Mimi Parker of @lowtheband has died. Not many musicians who mostly just sang backing vocals made such a memorable sound for so long. Rest in peace. youtube.com/watch?v=iupa8t…

A Treasury minister said yesterday that ‘We are taking a responsible stance on public sector pay to limit the risk of inflation becoming both more severe and lasting longer than it needs to.’ This is complete nonsense. Let me explain why. A thread…..
The new issue of @RecCollMag is truly magnificent. The fact I wrote the cover story, interviewing all surviving members of the Sex Pistols, is a contributory factor that it would be dishonest for me to ignore. Contains low abuse, descriptions of violence and sexual swearwords.

But I haven't lived in Soho for 8 years. I'm a @MuswellHillNews boy, born and bred. And that's where the album was written and recorded. 🙂
Hello @johnnycigs, I know you were disappointed to learn that I don’t roam the streets with blue hair. But here I am on the streets of Soho with a blue barnet on my Brompton and a copy of the latest edition of @ProgMagazineUK Feeling suitably ‘oddball’ And very grateful 😉🙏🏻
#WorldCancerDay My son is sleeping off his last-but-one bone marrow op. In June 2021 he became one of the first UK kids to pioneer a treatment for his type of leukaemia. It's changed how other kids will be treated at Great Ormond St. He was 8 when he started. A genuine hero.

Many of the people who nursed, cared for, gave blood, raised money and arranged funerals for my gay friends who died of AIDS were “suburban white women” - so take your misogyny and shove it where the sun doesn’t shine.
