Here's our last parody song about the #USElection2024. It's called "Bohemian Trumpsody" (based on the inimitable @QueenWillRock but with only six voices & no overdubs) & we've self-trolled in it as 'libtards' already, just to save folks time who might be offended 🎶🗳️🤞 👉youtu.be/YY_8WzcHqMQ

Fund the Arts!! Hear, Hear @wmarybeard
Wish people wd stop saying gloomily that it took Tv to get the subpostmasters to the top of the agenda. This is (as Libby Purves has said I think) the real power of arts and drama (expertise that is being starved of funding) Message is: we need to fund the arts.

After dumping sewage in seas, chemically polluting rivers, failing to upgrade Victorian pipes & handing huge dividends to shareholders, all water firms have to offer is “sorry - oh by the way we’re putting your bills up”. What a shitshow. @Feargal_Sharkey bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

It was inevitable. The song is a mess, like the situation the BBC has found itself in. But this one's dedicated to all the dudes showing solidarity with @GaryLineker on @BBCMOTD. ⚽️🎶 #IStandWithGary #GaryLineker #BBCQuestionTime #WatfordFCManagementApproachNeeded 🐝
