What are people going to do?
Londoners will moan about it for a few days and carry on as normal.
The Dail Heil and other Tory leaning papers will whip themselves up into a froth of righteous indignation and then something else will come along.

Killing Joke on the same bill as that lot, fuck me what were they thinking 
…still, Morrissey will be there so that’ll cheer up proceedings no end.

I have this mental image of Her Maj sitting through Napalm Death and it just won’t go away.

…or Dumpy’s Rusty Nuts. 
Dumpy’s are still going strong well into their 70s, very popular with bikers. I saw them supporting Hawkwind once, they were a decent live band, sold out The Marquee regularly back in the day. Very loud hard rocking band, not sure what Betty would make of them though!

Some shitty cities for your lovely jubbly.
Edit. Local news though.
Meanwhile, the city of Southampton has won the competition for Lord Mayoralty status - which means the mayor can be called Lord Mayor - joining the ranks of previous Jubilee competition winners including Chester, Exeter and Armagh.
Gord blimey gov, this’ll be a right knees up and that will be the truth

If I’d stopped to think, that was obvious. Any BBC line up would have started with KT Tunstall, Jayne County, The Proclaimers and NWA.

But her name’s Betty or Madge isn’t it? 
It’s actually Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor.
And?
All those who have decided to descend upon London are going to have a nasty surprise when they find out the trains and underground wont be running due to the train strikes including my BiL who could only find accommodation in Stratford
I thought I saw the RaMT were meeting mid June to confirm strike dates. The BIL would seem to be ok.
I think there is a separate TFL strike
Day after the Jubilee
Nice to hear the new Elizabeth Line is open.
I’ve never seen an underground line get named after a sitting monarch in my lifetime.
I missed out on King District and Circle I opening his line.
