And right now, for me, that has to be Orange County from Gorillaz new album.

It's been sixteen months, USA, but I'm still trying to process the fact that you actually put that idiot back in power, instead of in jail where he belongs. Electing him once was bad enough, twice is unforgiveable.

Literally.

You've fucked up the entire world, possibly irreparably, and that won't be forgotten in a hurry.

It must be 15 years since I made a submission on the previous iteration of the Galway ring road which called for smaller incremental improvements rather than relying on a big silver bullet solution. It's taken a long time but I'm glad to see that view going mainstream.
