I expect that all us groovy fookers know that the original lyris were "I'm so bored of you" (not I'm so bored of the USA).


Spookily enough at the age of 16 hearing this (rather than all the prog rock crap that the upper 6th played in the common room) changed my life. Had me hair cut short, bought some seconds Levi drainpipe jeans from the market and was given my uncle's genuine WW2 army shirt (desert). Cool or what?


And as I mellow I can even listen to some of the prog rock crap nowadays. And other genres I hated at the age of 16.

My stories very similar Malambu - having been told by the 6th formers that Bowie and Roxy Music and TRex were crap and that I should listen to Greenslade and Yes, after I heard Anarchy in the UK my mate cut my hair, I bunged away my flares and the job was a good un. was a proper moment of change Punk. I don't think younger people quite get just what it was like...still can't listen to prog though

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here.

      You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect

      I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Rockets · Posted

      To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
