Queen.

More people will sing Queen than Beatles.

I'm not going to dispute the Beatles had a bigger impact on music, but that's not what I said. Bowie is a cultural phenomenom, not just music, but art, fashion, film. No one comes close to the impact...

Bowie would trump them both, given his impact not just on music, but on wider culture.

I'd be amazed in Warsaw/Joy Division/New Order didn't feature highly in their playlist.

Who doesn't like a bit of Tamla Motown? Ignoring that as its moot, by soul, i mean something that makes you feel alive when listening to it, stirs your emotions. Indie covers a wide spectrum, and...

FOCs have to pay franchise fees whereas the state, when it takes over a franchise, does not. That's how the taxpayer recoups there money.

Anyway, I digress from the point I was making. Whether you...

in real terms i.e. adjusted for inflation, defence spending is about half what it was in 2007. We have more civil servants in the MoD than sailors in the RN

I have a car whereby when the engine is turned off, you can move through the gears when in neutral. When the engine is turned on, you cannot move between gears, in fact you cannot put the car into...

it would have been better if you did not use "never".

2hat, I spilt my drink all over the keyboard

says he's never abused a player, then tells of a time when he abused a player

the fact they lasted 80 minutes is astonishing

using the word "play" in its loosest sense

definitely a sore subject, one that makes you itch.

the law is quite simple here, if you are in a public place you have no right to not be filmed.

£1 in every £8 is spent on servicing the debt. just my first thought.

And whilst discussing tax, I'm of the opinion Starmer needs to be more radical. Its time we had a paradigm shift in UK...

What kind of sophistry is this?

Other than Japan and the US, the countries with the most Michellin stars are all European.

If you've ever tried Home, Bulrush or even Heaney's you'll know...

you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Football is about winning, not drawing.
