Thank you. I already loved Elbow but they've got a proper special place in my heart now.

The consistently hostile Joss Prior must be reading this thread. Prior has gone straight over to Craig's thread to spit the usual venom at him.

This really is a religion for the 21st century isn't it? The martyrs we must all sanctify, the heretics we must denounce, the unexplainable myths only the monks of the inner sanctum can be permitted to understand, the sacred texts about hormone washes in the womb and the special identity only believers can see. It's all a bit pathetic.

That’s earned him a follow. I’m assuming he isn’t getting the vile abuse JK is?

Oh good. I like Elbow.

Most of those who rant that TWAW are either young or insulated from the world by wealth and privilege.

I think this is significant & makes the career politicians scary to me

He’s been “out” on twitter for a long time; such a relief to find “well known” people who have a backbone.

Oh he is a nice man, lives near my gran. Grin

He's spoken out about this before. I imagine having lived a long time as an ordinary person before becoming famous helps to ground people in reality a bit.

Women are so unpopular, and it's become so fashionable to belittle, dismiss and replace us, and to casually give away our handful of hard-won rights, that to hear someone say 'I support women' is very powerful and important - and very much appreciated. Thanks Craig.

So sane and calm and measured against the frothing rage. Good for him.

TulipWonder · 10/06/2020 06:53

Yes!!!

MorrisZapp · 10/06/2020 06:51

Throw those curtains wide!

Well I clicked on this with trepidation! I love Elbow, I’d be so disappointed if it had been the other way. Good on Craig Potter Star
