Personally wouldn't have any of the top 4 as my "Best #1 of the 00s" so hoping for some changes to come...

It was always coming down to these three wasn't it...?

27/9/23 38 Tears For Fears — Everybody Wants To Rule The World 30 A-Ha — Take On Me 26 Queen — Radio Ga Ga 24 Eurythmics — Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) 23 Pet Shop Boys & Dusty Springfield — What Have I Done To Deserve This? 20 Bangles — Manic Monday 17 Duran Duran — Save A Prayer +4 16 Prince — 1999 / Little Red Corvette 4 INXS — Need You Tonight -6 I don't really care about INXS (song's fine, but no connection to me). The rest it starts getting really difficult. Save a Prayer is my favourite Duran Duran song, Susanna Hoffs is a goddess, 1999 is a proper bop, Pet Shop Boys are the Pet Shop Boys, Queen are Queen (although I don't think Radio Ga Ga is peak Queen, it's grown on me), and the top 3 are all absolute 80s classics!

Jay-Z - Umbrella +4 14 Sugababes - Push the Button No way should Rihanna be bottom of this list - that song is a stone cold classic (although maybe I was just the right age at the right time...)

I bet mum and dad were smiling down then too...

Today's the day that just keeps giving...

Bravo Jon Sopel! Hypocrite? Moi? Pulling up the drawbridge after her. The fucking cheek of Cruella.

It was briefly covered last night. The announcement at the dispatch box that it wasn't a confidence vote, the subsequent uproar in the chamber. Wendy Morton telling Liz Truss she was resigning outside the voting lobby, Liz Truss refusing to accept it, chasing after her, failing to vote in the confusion. Charles Walker's tirade followed encountering an upset young MP who had absolutely no idea what she was meant to do as she didn't know if it was a confidence vote or not (like the rest of them). He had just had enough. Very little contrition from Kwarteng, Mogg, Dorries and co.,, mind.

What an absolute shit show. How anyone could vote for them again is beyond me. LK: "Were you in Parliament the night of the fracking vote?" Mad Nad: "Oh my...yes...that was a bad night..." Thought I'd check. Imagine my surprise. She didn't vote. Doubt she was there at all.
