Watching this with Laila . No words, just watch it. #Defiance

Ground breaking label, nice to see them getting Bandcamp coverage.

Thank you for posting this Lee.

A few of the very similar/same words in Turkish/Hindi/Urdu. These are just ones Laila spotted while in Istanbul, there are probably many more.
Derya - Sea
Dunya - globe/world
Taxe - fresh
Hava - air
Tabiat - nature
Kıyma - mince
Mercez- place/cenrer
Meydan - square
Gul - rose

Looking forward to seeing the finished film.

This is on the list to listen to when we back from hols.

Spent most of the day, hanging out in a square with 1000s of people from so many places with as many languages , waiting to break fast on the last day of Ramadan. The day has been full of human warmth. Eid Mubarak to all.

Let's pause & reflect a minute about what this shocking picture of Greta Thunberg 's arrest tells us about the current state of #climate politics.

A short 🧵on some key lessons we can take from this image

Really excited to pick this up in a 2nd in
hand shop in Istanbul today. Kemani Cemal was an important violin player from Sulukule, a predominantly Roma (the longest established in Europe) part of Istanbul, known for its music, before it was redeveloped in 2005.

We’re having a great time in Istanbul, and all the better for catching up with old mates and chatting music & biscuits, as well as showing us some top local eateries (so good we went twice in one day)

Tonight on TUwS&LJ we have the one and only Phil Minns, founder of the incredible Best Foot Music
He picks the trax & we do a biscuit review!

(At no point do we get the number of years right.)

The BNP-ification of the Conservative Party is complete.

There's innocent children dying, and yet this ...

2 points: 1) the comments under this are unsurprisingly full of racism. 2) Governments that put groups of people into lists & then point the finger of blame at them are generally referred to as Fascists, and often its a precursor to horrific violence #Conservatives

We are in a mad, mad world when an international court has to order a western backed, democratic nation to allow food to reach innocent people. To stop them starving to death. A court has to pass a ruling to order the very basics of humanity.
