Liz Truss’s time is up

[spitfire]

Don't these people just decide to use what they like and fuck the consequences. Then they get a cease and desist and at that point its too late. Conference over

Don't know what the deal is in the US. I remember Bruce and Aerosmith kicking up a fuss but not sure how far they got.

 

[Cid]

I think if the venue has a PRS licence they can pretty much play what they like. It's just a very short DJ set at the end of the day.

If they want to use it on an ad or online or whatever then it needs paying for.

It's being broadcast though, I would think you'd need something more than that. Hmm... dunno.

 

[Karl Masks]

I'm so proud of young people sometimes

Brava !

Oh listen to them all boo and hiss. Oh clutch those pearls in your dead withered fingers, and fuck off into the sunset. Your time is done and you've voted for misery.

That would be covered by the broadcasters publishing deals etc. and there are exemptions for news etc. (I think).

But they aren't licensing it as such, they're just playing it. Like at a wedding.

It's still licensing, PRS just simplifies the process. I mean I think you're probably right somehow anyway, like I say I've forgotten everything I knew about this.

Yes, technically it is still licensing. But it isn't LICENSING.

I particularly liked that they were smiling broadly all the way out

It's not even moralistic really is it, not even that complex. It's just 'look at this gross fat bitch'

It depends whether she complains about overweight people and/or smokers in which case hypocrite can be added to a list of qualities.
I'm leaving drinkers off as there is a recommended weekly limit to that and she might be below that limit.

 

[Cid]

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure you can't just get your live broadcast conference covered on a standard PRS license. Surely? I don't fucking know...

 

[spitfire]

Some discussion here.

Just to remind everyone, this is the person in charge of the public healthcare system. A picture of health herself.

Your going to be shocked when you see what doctors and nurses get up to for fun

Apparently the guy who wrote this song aint pleased. I never understand why artists dont get asked if politicians can use their songs (trump/rolling stones etc)

"Your movin' on out..."

"Your movin' on out..."

Drop M People a DM.

e2a: totally forgot that's already a lyric.

He enjoyed the Queen's funeral a lot more.

part of me thinks tough shit on m-people - they wrote a horrible song custom built for middle management motivational seminars, so its an obvious pick for the tories. See also "search for the hero" - musical equivalent of new labour.

It's about divorce

 

[killer b]

it's a song about kicking out a shit boyfriend?

 

[killer b]

tbh Moving on Up is just averagely bad, Search for the Hero is the true horror in M-People's catalogue.

 

[pesh]

the really chilling bit was watching Truss take to the stage to the refrain Nothing can stop me

 

[Kaka Tim]

but comes accorss like its about a new 3 piece suite of something. ETA - anyway - I guess heather small is not the real enemy here.

Attenborough: poorer countries are just as concerned about the environment

Veteran broadcaster Sir David says environmental concerns are not solely the preserve of wealthy nations

www.theguardian.com

He said "environment" instead of "planet". Sozzard

It seems the jury is out:

Anyone Who Believes Exponential Growth Can Go On Forever in a Finite World Is Either a Madman or an Economist – Quote Investigator

My money is on Marilyn Monroe, Ghandi or Bradley Walsh

I suspect starmer plays it, looking in the mirror every morning. He's still searching.

There's more coke in Central London

TBF all M People's music makes me want to divorce my ears.

Lots of things can, though.

Back home to read the Daily Mail peddle outrage about how they can't get a gp appointment because...antifa probably, or the blacks

 

[JimW]

Lots of things can, though.

A mildly confrontational question from an interviewer, for example.

 

[story]

Truss is either going to just keep digging her own grave and trip over herself in her haste to climb into it, or she’s going to become very very biddable and malleable. Which was what I’d assumed she was going to be.

I wonder if this meaty pushy headstrong thing is her attempt to try to be “her own person” and after this she’ll revert to being the Playmobil PM that will pose for any pic and pick any policy that’s punted to her by the big pricks who will no doubt be pushing her from behind.

She’s either gone, or she‘ll buckle.

Pppffttt.

Tend to agree, but it can provide some classic moments. I always enjoyed the sight of Donald, plastered in fake tan and foundation, bopping along to the YMCA in a cloud of hairspray, while his fans basked in all that alpha macho energy they somehow saw.
