After many years of campaigning, I am delighted the Immigration Bill which will end free movement on 31st December has today passed through Parliament.
We are delivering on the will of the British people.

Worth watching the daphne snd Celeste vid … amazing attitude and balls of steel compared to royal blood.
I was put on between future heads and supergrass at a festival… I told the audience it was for health and safety reasons and their ears were getting a gentle rest……
Last word on Royal Blood: this is how you deal with it, and these poor girls got much, much worse.
(We (
@ArabStrapBand
) met them once and they were lovely. Always liked them. And it turns out they're hard as fuck too. Legends.)

The Mercury Prize One. I wish I could do that all again.
There were Radiohead on one table, Coldplay on another...and this agoraphobic who'd been having panic attacks and stage fright on a table near them. I regret that I didn't enjoy that moment more. It flashed before my eyes.

Some songs I tried to put together for the album just didn’t work. ‘Pale Blue Eyes’ never did. Nirvana’s ‘All Apologies’ did. Making this album was like meeting new people as well as old friends, and bringing them together. The Bee Gees, Kurt Cobain and Ivor Cutlerbrought me back
