You're sad because it's ending not because it's Sunday so if you change the day it ends you just feel sad on a different day. -

And whilst Starmer has indeed been lucky with Johnson and partygate, Truss and her budget, Sunak and his shitness, SNP dodginess, inflation and cost of living etc..it isn't all luck. It was considered almost impossible for them to win the next election back in 2019, Starmer was seen as another Kinnock, an interim leader carrying them in opposition, and here we are with it looking like a landslide. What he has shown is a ruthless steeliness in pursuit of power, a lot of this probably actually coming from Morgan McSweeney than Starmer himself. They have been smart with how to win in places where they need to win. How they will do in power is another thing, the task is massive, and there is not a lot of love or trust out there so someone like Farage could easily come along and mop up all the disillusioned voters with the Greens further eroding labour support from the left. -

There seems to be an awful lot of throwing the baby out with the bath water and overreaction on this thread. Firstly, This happens every year (despite having warnings from the council) people always talk about 'one year something bad will happen' but it doesn't. This type of thing regularly happens at any large scale event. The reality is some crowds will be big and oversubscribed, but most won't. For those that are it generally means a bit of inconvenience, rather than a risk to life. As someone so eloquently said earlier, Glastonbury do not know who is going to attend, so getting each act on the right stage isnt as easy as it would be for a festival who sold tickets to the people who want to see the acts they bought the tickets for in the first place. They also book acts fairly early and don't know what will happen in the months after that to change their popularity. 95%+ of acts are no issue at all and are placed correctly, every year about 5% arent, but its the nature of the beast and it really isnt the end of the world that people make it out to be. On the SZA issue, this really isn't an issue either. I know some don't like to believe the intel because it didn't come directly from efests (in the same way nobody wanted to believe Kasabian were the Woodsies act, but they were all along, it just wasnt Efests intel so easily brushed under the carpet) but they tried to book two acts before her. After they didnt work out, what was Emily supposed to do, book KOL? She already had to release a grovelling Guardian article last year because it was all male acts headlining, so why not got for another available female. That happened to be SZA, and the scheduling requests of other acts meant it had to be Sunday, but so what? The alternatives would have been worse in different ways. I have no interest in SZA, but i dont blame the festval for booking her because i understand the circumstances and thankfully there was plenty for me elshwere. -

I reckon the full platter from the Lebanese Mezze in the Park was easily the best food I had this year. I'm partial to a late night pizza from the place near Gate B too.
