No chance it will be labelled as Far Right Propaganda, and banned, any one mentioning it on Social Media can expect to find two or more Plod on the doorstep one morning.
Best of luck, Tel.

Tel, I have sourced a,second hand rubber boat, only 22 miles on the clock, and plan to paddle across to P******* and live off the state there, it will only cost you £5000, for a ride. Are you up for it?

Hang on there's a knock on the door...........................

Do you have a date for that photo ...? I believe it to be a very good friend of mine ... and looks as though it might be the pitlane exit at Silverstone ... in which case some ribbing might be in order!!!

25/07/2010. Silverstone Classic. I have many more photos from that race, but these are the only ones I have of no 45, perhaps he retired to change his trousers?
Cheers,

It's much more transparent than you claim.

100 streams = 1 sale/download. When the combined sales/downloads and streams are taken into consideration, the song reached #37.

It couldn't be much more simple than that.

No conspiracy, no manipulation, no subterfuge.

It was top of both sales and downloads . But apparently they use a lot more different numbers to finish up with the number they wanted .https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...er-bbc-charts/

Yes - as I explained, streams also count towards the final chart position.

As with most 'protest' songs, it struggled in the streaming numbers which resulted in the #37 position.

I guess that means the BBC and some more of the media, which refused to play it , had "Wham " on a few times . Claimed several million viewers each time so that would give "Last Christmas "a lot more numbers to make it higher in the charts .
But from peoples choice " Freezing " was still highest selling and most downloads .

>2 million streams for Wham vs 14000 sales for 'freezing'.

BBC airplay doesn't count towards the streaming total.

And for years the record producers would influence the sales figures by "selling" records which were no more than just "lent" to wholesalers and retailers, and which were then returned to the producers as soon as the weekly figures were compiled.

All to get their artist to be the number one.

And newspaper producers to this day, as they have been doing for decades, make the published sales figures a nonsense by inflating their figures by including free copies that they dump on organisations and businesses to give away to customers/clients, for example political parties and airlines.

So none of this is new.
