Before we get on with the serious business of posting more musical references, I note with some measure of glee that the truly awful Toby Young has resigned his post on the board of Office for Students before he has even begun. How embarrassing! I also note that those of us who signed the petition on Change.org to object to this are being said to be responsible by his cronies like the equally detestable nurk, Piers Morgan. Now I hardly think us "armchair critics"* can be held to blame after all there was only some 220, 000 of us signed and that can't be right can it? What, that such a small percentage of the populace could effect change? 
I don't think so Piers. Ha ha ha ha . . . . . . but then you have to keep an eye out for us "howling Twitter mob" hey? and yes Piers we acknowledge his "distinctive perspective" just as we recognise yours . . . . . really couldn't have put it better myself. So are you're really saying a few ill-informed armchair revolutionary snowflakes can upset the apple cart and get shot of your sexist, foul mouthed, prejudiced, reactionary, extreme right wing, cretinous cronies just by speaking up? 
Can't be right can it?
