There have been literal race riots going on in parts of the UK over the last few days - violent, angry bigots firebombing homes and cars belonging to immigrants, refugees, and literally anyone with dark skin, with families having to flee under police protection.

You know what I can’t stop thinking about? Refugees - people who have escaped some of the worst circumstances imaginable, hell on earth, some who have had to make extremely dangerous journeys to get here, believing that they would find safety, peace, a fresh start. Instead, this is what they find.

And I'll see other posts on here about this and be nodding along, agreeing, until I get to the end and see unhingedly antisemitic sentences about "zionist baby killers" and I'm like, nope, you have lost me completely.

“For the first time now in my whole career I feel like a songwriter, whereas even with the last album I still wasn’t sure and thought I’d got there through cheating and sooner or later somebody’s going to go “This guy’s crap”. In the past people have said “What do you do” and I’ve mumbled sheepishly “music”, but now I say I’m a songwriter.”
