One of my favourites and glad to see them back at victorious. I think the poster will change shape in phase 2, but could see everything everything 3rd down on castle for sure. I just hope they get a decent set length.
Such a great band and still sold out the Roundhouse this year? Upcoming tour is smaller venues but they could easily play in the same position/stage where The Futureheads or Pigeon Detectives did this year?
Starmer says can be close to both EU and US. Good luck with that. EU our largest trading partner, US a large trading partner but also important in terms of security. Any further distance from EU hurts growth. Tariffs by US hurts growth. Trump hates EU, he just sees them as a competitor/rival/enemy like China. US possibly going to go through a chaotic, distabling period. EU economies struggling and populism on the rise. Some sort of reckoning coming for Ukraine/Russia/NATO. Try squaring that.
At same time maybe business will see us as a good place to invest, between but close to two big economic blocks, politically stable compared to both etc.
Or we'll play piggy in the middle of various trade wars which will f**k our economy and we'll descend into our own messy populism.
