What's so special about her voice? Plenty of other kids with better voices not given the opportunity she was given. Wouldn't mind if she stuck to just that, but she felt we all wanted to hear her opinions about everything else, including stuff she clearly knows nothing about. Get off your soapbox love, no one is interested.

1/10


The 1 is for not mentioning clique or bullying.

I was there yesterday and like some of you above, when Charlotte Church came on stage to give her speech, didn't expect much. I was pleasently suprised. She gave a terrific speech, that she'd written beforehand and clearly put a lot of thought into. It's very easy to be cynical and sneer, but how many of you above heard her speech yesterday?


Russell Brand is not the best speaker as we all know. To be honest I think he makes it up as he goes along, but his support does bring coverage of what is for many a serious cause. Austerity is hitting the poorest and most vulnerable people hard, especially people like the disabled. 250,000 people joined that march (a police estimate annonuced on the main stage). And let's remember that only 23.5% of the electorate voted for this miracle conservative majority. They don't represent 76.5% of the electorate at all, some of whom are celebrities and should be free to lend support without being ridiculed.

0/10


The zero is because you and some others keep up with this nonsense of ranking someone out of 10, It's become repetitive and it's getting predictably boring (ring any bells?). When it first started a solid 5 would have been in order, but it's tedious now, almost as tedious as me (apparently).

She was a child with a lot of talent, so obviously people hated her for that. She had an incredible voice, if you found her annoying you should have blamed the parents, not the little girl.


She was a very annoying chat show host / failed pop star, I'll give you that.

After the election she was called a champagne socialist when she went to a rally in Cardiff (I think), and she responded with a blog which I was really impressed with. And I don't like the "champagne socialist" term. It implys that if you have money you should lose all social conscience.

I don't care how posh someone is / sounds.


Posh.. ? She don't sound posh.. That was her TV voice..


I worked in Telecoms and I had my Telephone voice. I was told 'you sound real posh on the phone'

Well it does if I'm speaking professionally. Not so if I'm talking with friends. init.

It's not the issue of austerity being raised, that I or anyone else has an issue with. That is of course an important topic we should all be aware of and I applaud these people for at least raising it. But why is it we need 'z' list celebrities jumping on a bandwagon as the voice of such an important issue? Makes a mockery of the whole thing IMO.

      Niko the Plumber

      By bluegold · Posted

      So, on Saturday, we suddenly had a leak through on to our bedroom ceiling, with water falling onto our bed. In a panic, we messaged friends to try to find a reliable plumber who would be able to help. My oh my, did we need help. One of our friends suggested Nico; she had been a client of his for a while and recommended him very highly. Nico was unable to come during the day but said that he would visit our home in the evening. The flow of water had stopped but we kept our fingers crossed that he would turn up and that he was affordable. Nico arrived just when he said that he would, climbed up into the loft and then he explained what he was going to do and why. We agreed, the source of the leak was sorted and he gave us advice about how we could make sure that it was unlikely to happen again.  The price of the work was totally reasonable and we are genuinely grateful for his intervention. We intend to use him again and would always recommend him. Aside from his highly professional behaviour, his social skills are outstanding, he is a kind and thoughtful man. Dear Nico, thank you.

      GALA 2025

      By Marguerita98 · Posted

      The failure of the council year on year to prevent the corporate take-over of our precious public space is appalling. The consultation process this year is deliberately dumbed down and takes the form of a survey with a range of anodyne tick boxes designed to give the appearance of a 'consultation' without requiring any hard comment or information that could be used to oppose the survey.  It may be possible to get some answers from Gala themselves so I will try to do that and post here if anything forthcoming.

      Estate Agents - recommendations/avoid?

      By johnsmoth · Posted

      Avoid Acorn at all cost. Appalling service in every regard. We were involved in a sale and they repeatedly made procedural errors that delayed, and almost tanked, the sale. As buyers, they knew literally nothing about the property and were unable to answer even the most basic questions. Instead they simply lied rather than saying they didn’t know any information which caused issue in the long run. I hear only positive things about Truepenny’s.
