#LittleSimz, #Brixton, #London, Cross the Tracks festival. Fantastic show, so impressive, what a strong performer. Guest performance by Obongjayar

Went to see the Super Furry Animals at Brixton Academy.

Missed this band over the last, what, 15 years since they last played?

Banger after banger. One of those bass rumbles felt like the building was shaking, earthquake alerts.

The classic SFA song has some sweet jangly guitar tune going on then two verses in you feel something weird and electronic in the beat and then the wall of noise and beeps and booms hits you in the face. Love it.

Power-ranger helmet, furry suits, flashing lights and strange cartoon alien creatures on the backdrop.

Ending with that first song they ever wrote together, as they almost always did. The Man Don't Give A Fuck is a masterpiece and that beepy boomy wall of noise is different every time. Whole room bouncing up and down shouting that they don't give a fuck about anybody else you know they don't give a fuck about anybody else you know.

No encores. Ever. If you have a finale like that why would you? Prompt finish and out. Staff must love it. Everyone hanging on to that last second then moving on at once instead of hanging around unsure if anyone's gonna play again.

Looking forward to doing it again outdoors at Beautiful Days.

Made in Lambeth, Failed in Lambeth: The catastrophic Starmer project was born in the borough – and is now crashing down in humiliating fashion, thanks to Claire Holland’s latest bout of petty Labour factionalism

For twenty years, Lambeth Labour behaved as though the borough belonged to them. Not represented. Not governed. Owned.

10pm: Partial result via #localnewspaper #Brixton Buzz: we are 5 seats away from #Labour losing their decades long majority in #Lambeth, #opposition seats so far at 27 (majority=32). Gonna be a long night.

@Lazarou I panicked for a sec given the order in which it was presented!!

A better graph. Long live #Lambeth #Brixton & grateful to live in a place that gives me #hope in the face of life or death peril.

Meet the candidates: Shake It Up

The Shake It Up coalition was born from a very public campaign to highlight street-homelessness across the borough last year, spearheaded by the charismatic XR co-founder Roger Hallam.

ooo, I wonder if I've been through this neighbourhood?
