What is it you hate? Do you feel that GB is not sincere?Patrick Bateman wrote:I *hate* the Gordon Brown section.
He recorded the apology specially for the Boys - it was issued in writing originally.
What's for supper?

Re: PSB Prom repeated tonight Radio 3
I sat in my kitchen and had a good cry this evening. Chrissie's brilliant vocals have possibly been turned up in the mix, I was certainly aware of hearing them more clearly than in the Hall itself and when I streamed the concert online in in internet cafe in the summer.
The Turing piece hit me just has hard as on first listen, it is a fitting tribute to Turing's thoughts and feelings, and certainly stirs mine.

I find it jarring. Here's this rather dreamy, often romantic piece.....and then Gordon Brown pipes up.Sandy Shaw wrote:What is it you hate? Do you feel that GB is not sincere?

What if he gave you an apology for his apology- would that help?Patrick Bateman wrote:I find it jarring. Here's this rather dreamy, often romantic piece.....and then Gordon Brown pipes up.Sandy Shaw wrote:What is it you hate? Do you feel that GB is not sincere?

For the lovely Brits here: What needs to happen in order for ALL those thousands of innocent gay men to get an official pardon??
Re: PSB Prom repeated tonight Radio 3
I agree, all of the innocent gay men who were prosecuted under these laws need to receive a pardon. I'm amazed it hasn't happened yet, actually.
As for A man from the future, it sounds even better listening to it six months after seeing it live. A real triumph for the Boys!

Re: PSB Prom repeated tonight Radio 3
It is unusual to receive a pardon when "rightly convicted" at the time. It would take a lot of campaigning to try to extend the Turing case to other gay men.

All those men are guilty of no crime. And in 2014 -- soon to be 2015 -- it's a disgrace that their guilt still stands.

Although the deceased cannot apply for anything, and they deserve to have their records wiped clean as well.
