Scottish Parliament to debate local libraries.

 Here's the link, well done to all the library campaigners and thank you to CILIPS and Mark Ruskell for their support. https://www.cilips.org.uk/members-debate/

Lisa O'Neill, a new single - Homeless in The Thousands (Dublin in the Digital Age), an essential listen. When I go to Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, it's just the same. And this in two of the most affluent countries in the world. I could expect nothing better from the previous UK administration, but here in Scotland, SNP you've had years to do something about this... and what have you done? Lisa spoke about homelessness when we went to her gig at the end of last year. Brilliant music and an important topic that should be kept high on the political agenda.

On a cheerier note, prolonged (no choice at 2 hours playing time) and repeated listening, to Cindy Lee have uncovered some influences. I can certainly hear both the Beta Band (3 EPs) and Television swirling around in there. I'm coming to the conclusion the album is some sort of prolonged love song(s).

Only available from Bandcamp and Geocities - a bit of genius.
