    I had never heard of Frank Levene before despite being a fan of early Clash and PIL. So I am finding that reading about his career is all very interesting. Sad he died so young. He was not involved in Rise. That was the first thing I checked because I like the track so much and bought the album it was on when it came out but you can clearly hear his influence, like you said.

    This is now at least the third track I have you heard mention that you would like played at your funeral. All excellent tracks so far. I believe the first was Ceremony IIRC. Let’s hope it won’t be necessary for a very long time but that will be one rocking Irish wake. When my mentor at work died, he had them play Frank Sinatra. Thought the idea of music at your funeral was a great one. Suggested to a friend back then that he arrange that Nookie by Limp Bizkit get played at mine. Just for the shock value. Thinking about that now, I would likely follow that up with Party Hard by Andrew W. K.

  2. Warren,

    In one date: January 6, 2022. The ultimate game-changer.

  3. DeSantis isn’t the Republican savior. Why? Simple enough. When Trump loses the nomination, he and his people will tear the whole thing down rather than let DeSantis win in an election against the Democrats.

    Even Joe could win next time until such a scenario but Dems would do well to run in 2024 with a stronger candidate than Biden. (I luv Democratic landslides.)

  4. What do you expect from a genius who allowed Chinese forces to observe winter training exercises in 2018 on Canadian soil? Pretty much says it all, doesn’t it…then we wonder why the United States quite deliberately isolates Canada on so many national security and defence issues. No kidding!

    • It’s obvious from our side that our leader should find out the names of CPC candidates and/or MPs and then quickly make that public. That would put pressure on the Trudeau Liberals to do the same. Once our names are out, we can bang this home to the great political effect. Over to you, Pierre.

        JT had a pull aside with the President of China this morning and Joly was talking to her counterparts about this very issue. I am sure they will now back off. JT also pronounced the last two elections were fine yesterday. So, all seems good.

  5. See what inevitably happens when you’ve spent too much time being a seat-mate to this Prime Minister in the Commons. Eventually, his good judgment and common sense starts to really rub off on you…what kind I say?

  6. Of no particular interest to anyone but is it true? Have Harry and Meagan separated? And was it inevitable, if accurate?

    WK, dude, you and Lilley were being dudes and missed an important factor re the midterms (yes Trump is a drag but) American women are PISSED. FUCKING PISSSSSSSSED OFF.

    The pundits we’re all wrong and Pelosi was right to never let up with talking about abortion rights. This is going to be a problem for the GOP until there’s a new Supreme Court that reinstates Roe. You said a few months ago that they were the dog that caught the car and that hasn’t changed. Younger voters as a whole are pissed about this too and turned out because of this issue.

  8. Derek,

    CNN had some post midterm polling and abortion rights was way up there in the top three with inflation and the state of the economy. It was second if I remember correctly.

    Also worth noting: Keith Levene was very innovative Synth player. Was listening to Careering from 2nd Edition (aka Metal Box) last night. Astonishingly good.

    I normally only watch QP on CPAC but accidentally left it on and caught this speech by Pierre. It is quite the 15 minute indictment of JT’s record:
