Re: The Future of the Democratic Party

One big difference seems to me is sanders is a lot harder to smear than corbyn, if it takes something more than just being labelled the big bad socislist. Is there long-standing mud that freedland like opponents can fling at him? Have yet to see anything substantial anyway so figures they are going...

Re: The Future of the Democratic Party

What do people think of these polls I saw today.. I find them hard to believe from across the pond. Is Bernie really likely to win the democratic nomination? Poll (2/13-16): Sanders 31% Bloomberg 19% Biden 15% Warren 12% Klobuchar 9% Buttigieg 8% Steyer 2% Gabbard 0% National USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll: ...

Re: Black Market Clash EP sleeve

I always used to believe that the rasta featured in the photo on the Black Market Clash EP sleeve was Don Letts. However I was told by a knowledgeable source that it isn't. Anyone got any insight / thoughts on this? Don says it's him. Watch this vid. Case closed. https://youtu.be/pO7FcuKWUr8?t=845 ...

Re: Black Market Clash EP sleeve

I don't agree I think it is Don. Don has long since said that he wasn't walking towards the police line as the sleeve makes it seem. But walking away to get far away from the heavy situation.

Re: Black Market Clash EP sleeve

Yep that was always my understanding it’s not Don Letts.

My source told me that it's well known not to be Don on 'The Grove' but that it's a myth that he's more than happy to perpetuate.
