All in favour say, Aye.
Dig back three years and you will find a thread I kicked off on the very subject of referendums (and not running your politics by them). They are a very poor tool for democracy.

I don’t usually inhabit Pedant’s Corner, and indeed web quote sites are divided on the matter, but I believe Beecham’s quote referred to morris dancing and incest. I always like to point out that I have only […]

That wasn’t what was planned. I was tempted to put Café Café Café; she seems to spend that much time in them.

In my daydream fantasy, I am leading an XTC tribute band on the Cropredy stage. No, honestly.

I was staying with my brother in Abu Dhabi a few years ago and we went to some sort of open air cultural fete in the city. There was an Emirati bagpipe band. Bet they’ve never heard of Audlem, though.
