Two Just Stop Oil protesters have been sentenced to 2 & 3 years in jail (respectively) for climbing a bridge. The activists have been refused permission to challenge the sentences in the Supreme Court.
The UN special rapporteur on the promotion & protection of human rights has written a letter to the British government. This letter expresses concern that they are acting increasingly authoritarian by giving two peaceful activists such harsh sentences.
The letter (sent in mid-August) requested a reply within 60 days, but the UN rapporteur has not received one.
Kissing with Confidence – Will Powers, featuring Carly Simon.
Best 3 lyrics:
‘Will I spoil it with my overbite?’
‘Will are noses bump in the moonlight?’
‘Remember, you cannot get pregnant from kissing.’Here’s a great Italian song: Senza una Donna – Zucchero. There was also a semi-English language version of this song released, which featured Paul Young.
‘Senza una donna’ means without a woman; ‘zucchero’ means sugar; and ‘Paul Young’ means Paul not old. If you think the main reason I posted this song was to make that joke, you are correct.
Don’t Call Me Baby – Voice of the Beehive
V of the B were a new wave rock band*, made-up of: two American sisters; two former members of Madness; and another bloke.
*Funnily enough, it was David Bowie who coined the term: new wave rock.

“If music be the food of love, play on.”
Nobody Needs your Love – Gene Pitney (written by Randy Newman)
This doesn’t sound like a Randy Newman song until Pitney sings: “Nobody needs your love more than I do.”
