Do not know if this is the one you mean but if it is believe it or not i was at that concert.
Yeah, thats the one mate, fantastic. That acoustic stuff is the best work from Neil Young imo.

Both for me are selfish. They took part in and profited from a massive calculated deceit on a lot of confused and honest folk.

Anyone who voted Lib Dem expecting something other than a Labour or Conservative government is a fool.It's not Tory hatred, but many who voted Lib Dem previously did so as an alternative to Labour (a dislike of Blair/Brown/Iraq War etc.) and there were others who were Tory leaning but wanted something a bit softer (and disliked Labour). But Clegg gave us a Tory government, which is obviously not what the people who wanted an alternative to Labour wanted. And I'm guessing that the Tory leaning Lib Dems simply voted for the real thing next time, given the impotence of the Lib Dems in coalition.
In my view, being in coalition phucked them.
Anyway, this question time stuff is on now, let's have a look...
I trust Davis to deliver Brexit though, so want to see that protected.

Thought they both did OK again tonight.
May was weak on health, as you'd expect. Corbyn was very weak on tax/small business and not great on defence either. I thought his anti-racism bit was good but thoroughly undermined by him not being able to answer coherently on why there are still anti-Semites in the party.
I think May lucked out a lot with those asking her questions. Of the two who attacked her, one was a rabid loon who couldn't string a sentence together and was sending spittle all over the place whilst trying, the other poor girl was clearly suffering from a number of issues but her obvious need to massively over share will have ruined public opinion of her.
From what I remember of their campaign at the time, they were virtually a one-issue party - a referendum on the election process. I know they had other policies, some of them OK, but the only one that really rang out was the referendum.I don't think Lib Dem voters expected anything but a Tory or Labour government. What I'm saying is, there were a lot of Lib Dem voters who went for them as an alternative to Labour at that time. It's not unreasonable for these voters to feel somewhat betrayed by the Lib Dems then meekly enabling Tory policy for 5 years. IMO, that was reflected in the next general election and compounded by the Tory-leaning Lib Dems binning them off and voting for the real thing. And that's why I think the coalition government has killed the Lib Dems for the foreseeable, although they may come back over time.

Based on their campaigning, the only thing they really owed their voters was a referendum and they delivered it.
There's the Elvis Bus Pass Party or the Pirate Party in some constituencies. I've always got time for knowing loonies
Magic, I already have a good job though so what else ??
I'm even sad enough to watch the spin-room thing afterwards on bbc news. I have to say I quite like David Davis. I don't agree with most of his politics (though I think he's a good guy when it comes to civil liberties), but he seems like a bloke you could disagree with and get on with all the same.

Davis has been actively Eurosceptic since he was John Major's Europe Minister in the early/mid 90s. He's a true believer in the cause
And second Davis has done a year's prep for Brexit and is specially positioned as he and Michel Barnier are old drinking buddies from the 90s (they were Europe ministers for UK and France at the same time). It would be foolish to throw away those those advantages
Did anyone else think Corbyn seemed tired by the end of it?
