Sad to read Richard Williams' incredibly detailed obit of avant garde percussionist Tony Oxley in today's Grauniad. Oxley played with Bill Evans and Sonny Rollins in his time as resident drummer at Ronnie Scott's but also gigged at The Grapes in hometown Sheffield. Fine drummer.

This is brilliant. Please share and make sure Alexei Sayle and his cat get lots of clicks. This speaks for many Jewish people I know #FreePalestine #CEASEFIRE_NOW – at Sydney, New South Wales
Listen to what Alexei Sayle, a British Jewish comedian, says about zionist Jews. https://xitter.cf/t.co/lSiyJc3CkV #FreePalestine

On Wednesday the right to strike is being voted on in the House of Lords, if it fails Public Sector employee's will be banned from striking.
If you support the right to strike like I do give this a RT
We have had this right for 170 years they cannot take it away.
Same neglect of cyclists' safety apparent everywhere! What happens in Dublin when the cycle track just ends in the middle of nowhere??
It wd be great @DubCityCouncil if more leaves could get taken off the bike track on Griffith Avenue. In some parts the path is unusable

It seems that Michelle Mone is about to be rehabilitated and returned to the House of Lords.
If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £223,000,000 she owes give this a RT.
We won't forget.
Packham is a person of extraordinary moral integrity: this remarkable programme certainly set this viewer thinking. I don't remember current affairs on TV better conducted.
Personally , I've now reached a point where I believe breaking the law for the climate is the ethically responsible thing to do .
