They just know they're born do they *Bob*. I'll get the ball rolling.


Jarvis' stunt was a bit cringy, but let's not forget that Jackson's "people" tried to have him prosecuted and even claimed that he interfered/molested at least one of the children on stage


I think it was Bob Mortimer of all people who sprung Jarvis from jail, him being a qualified legal bod and all - but the fact that such nasty accusations were thrown at an essentially foppish rogue, pissed and upset at the hijacking of the brits award always left a nasty taste


As for people rushing to condemn him as a pedarist - well we might have our opinions but we don't know, and it doesn't show anyone in a good light to throw accusations like that at a dead person - anyone could do it to you if they took against you and you would have no defence. Let's see how this plays out is my tack on this one


As for the wall to wall coverage - it's repulsive in every way shape or form. If anyone feels moved or touched by the kids mourning their "in-the-same-way-harry-is-charles "father" ", it would surely be better to wonder why the same family which pushed MJ himself when he was just a kid into the public light to such detrimental personal effect would repeat the mistake..



These kids have nothing to do with any of us but if we do care the best that can be hoped for them is they lead normal lives away from the ghoulish limelight which is surely now awaiting them

I'm not claiming their emotions are not genuine (although.. if pushed... if I HAD to... I might admit to suspecting some manipulation)


But that's me being cold - let's take their emotion at face value - I still we should not be party to their grieving IMO. By being in public it is the start of a process which will see their lives corrupted by media and public noseyness...

(cringy, but he was my hero that night. I had already gone from ambivelance to annoyance with MJ but that night I went to hatred)


Then, as he says, BBW became youtube happy and showed another example of someone trying to prick a public figures pomposity (but this time failing - marvelously!)

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
