Coming From The Mill From Colne in Lancashire, the Milltown Brothers first burst onto the indie scene in 1989 with the ‘Coming From The Mill EP' getting single of the week in NME. Second indie single ‘Which Way Should I Jump' started a bidding war between the majors. Signing to A&M worldwide in 1990, WWSIJ was re-recorded & broke into the UK charts at Number 38. America liked it & put it to Number 10 in the US Rock Chart. The album – Slinky – was a revelation and pushed the boundaries for their peers. Defying the critics who had incorrectly labelled them as baggy the MBs delivered an absolute classic album of catchy, punchy songs, perfectly paced & well-balanced. The album received a maximum 5 Stars in Q Magazine Disaster struck with the release of their next single ‘Here I Stand'. Playing 3 times a day in independant record shops up & down the country for weeks before the release, the appearances helped the single achieve a predicted entry into the Top 20. The UK Record Industry however, due to the volume of sales from the shops played in, decided to ‘weight' the single, fearing chart-rigging. The single missed entry into the charts (along with a planned TOTP performance) & peaked at Number 41. A&M bottled it & despite new material being ready for release that year – they put the band ‘on the shelf' for 2 years and eventually picked the songs for their 2nd studio album – ‘Valve'. The album fared less well than Slinky, receiving average reviews. With a generally disappointing choice of songs, time has since shown that a dynamite second album could have been released, had the band been allowed to go their own way. After years of contractual exile, a tour which received no advertising & singles released which the band did not even want on an album – the band walked from A&M. It took 10 years for the band to work together again & in March 2004, they released their third studio album – Rubberband. Critically acclaimed & probably their finest release, Rubberband came out on their own label and was made available via the website at http://www.milltownbrothers.co.uk. Playing to their strengths, it once more demonstrated their head for melody, band dynamic & Matt Nelsons strongest set of songs yet heard. Described in Record Collector as ‘a faultless third album', it is one of few truly great UK band albums to be released since 2000.

Simon Nelson - Milltown Brothers - in conversation with David Eastaugh https://milltownbrothers.wordpress.com Their first release, in 1989, was the "Coming From The Mill" EP which became single of the week in the NME magazine, and featured the songs "Roses", "We've Got Time" and "Something On My Mind". The same publication tipped Milltown Brothers for stardom in the 1990s, along with The Hoovers, Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine, The Charlatans, The Mock Turtles and New Fast Automatic Daffodils. The band's second indie single was "Which Way Should I Jump", with "Silvertown" as the B-side. After the band signed to A&M Records worldwide in 1990, "Which Way Should I Jump?" was re-recorded and entered the UK Singles Chart at number 38, and reached number 10 in the U.S. Billboard Modern Rock chart.

"More rail yes, HS2 maybe not": Simon Nelson wrote that article for Solidarity 535, February 2020. After that is a response by Mark Catterall', then a reply to that by Simon Nelson. Then there is the Further Reading box. More, a paper version of the booklet For Workers' Climate Action (4th edition), and a contents list, at workersliberty.org/climate-pamphlet *Further reading* We have a weekly environmental column in Solidarity, and hundreds of climate articles on our website. There are countless books we might recommend, beyond those reviewed and mentioned so far. But there are a few notable areas which we wanted to cover in this pamphlet, but couldn't because of space. What is the ruling class likely to do in response to climate change, in the coming decades? We read and discussed a book, Climate Leviathan, that we were heavily critical of, but which is nonetheless thought provoking. See two reviews: “Against Leviathan, a workers' plan” bit.ly/against-leviathan and “Four climate futures” bit.ly/4-climate-f How may global warming play out? David Wallace-Wells' The Uninhabitable Earth attempts to sketch answers. “Climate disaster is already with us” is a review of this book. There have been some critical replies, and a debate, following this. The interlocutors both agree the book is worth reading. See the articles: bit.ly/w-wells Fossil Capital: The Rise of Steam Power and the Roots of Global Warming by Andreas Malm attempts to chart the rise of steam power and its links to the development of capitalism. We are critical of much of his politics. See workersliberty.org/malm-debate for several differing reviews on Malm's writings, a debate, plus a critical study guide. We read and discussed several different readings on “Degrowth” from a Marxist perspective. Readings and videos at workersliberty.org/readings-degrowth *Stay updated* The climate, and related science, politics, and activism are constantly changing. This pamphlet will start going out of date as soon as we publish it. We work to make that happen: to build a climate movement to move us onto a different track. Here are some ways to keep up to date: • Our website, workersliberty.org • Articles at workersliberty.org/climate-change • Subscribe to receive our weekly newspaper Solidarity, and support our work, for only £5 per month, at workersliberty.org/sub • Events, including our socialist environmental study group, at workersliberty.org/events • Contact us, and get more involved.

Ep  Corduroy INTROAlright - welcome to My 90s music podcast with me Mark McC - the podcast where I talk to the people who lived, loved and were in the eye of the storm of the best decade ever - the glorious 90s.Today I'm totally jazzed as I had the real pleasure of talking to two of my musical heroes that are half of The Fabric Four - Corduroy. If you don't know much about Corduroy or the Acid Jazz label and scene then I would check them out as they were a real influence on many of the bands in the 90s including the generators of Britpop - Blur who they also supported with Pulp and Supergrass at Ally Pally.I had a great, fun interview with Richard who plays bass and Simon who is the guitarist in the band. We chat about how the band formed, recording the albums, touring, riding a helicopter and driving an Aston Martin in Japan for a TV as, how the band came to a natural end in the 90s and how they are coming back with a bang very soon with a new album, tour dates and brand new merchandise at www.corduroyshop.bigcartel.com We kick off talking about what COVID has done to the live music scene and our collective pockets before heading back to the 90s. OUTROThanks to Simon and Richard for taking the time to talk to me and I wish you well for the new album, finishing those tunes started during lockdown and of course seeing you in a venue near me really soon. Corduroy will have a new album out soon on Acid Jazz so keep your eyes peeled on @CorduroyFabric4 on Twitter and @corduroyband on Instagram.Don't forget to get your Corduroy facemasks, Tshirts and merch www.corduroyshop.bigcartel.comThanks so much for listening to this episode.

You can also check them out on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JapanPrize.NHK/  Next up, a word from ClassCentral which if you're into geeking out over online learning and MOOC reports like I am you'll probably already know about!  It's been more than half a decade since free online courses from Stanford kicked off the modern-MOOC or massive online open courses movement. Since then more than 700 universities around the world have launched MOOCS, used by over 60 million people. Gaining insight into this fast paced world is worth spending time on (especially for those implicated by such changes). That's where Class Central comes in.    Class Central launched at the end of 2011, and has kept track of the MOOC space right from the beginning. Not only does it list 7000+ courses, making it the #1 search engine for online courses, but the excellent MOOC report blog has deep analysis on what's up, down, new or just slightly leftfield. With over 500+ articles written, Class Central has the most comprehensive coverage of the MOOC Industry.   I came across Class Central when I was preparing for a Department for International Trade webinar I was speaking on and found it invaluable. Since then, I met founder Dhawal Shah out at SXSWedu and he was excited to share the resource with all of you. So definitely go and check it out at www.class-central.com/report/ and let me know what you think!  This is an easy one for me as I regularly use Glisser at events because I frankly find it a bit WEIRD when there are people staring at you but you ignore them! Glisser is an audience engagement platform, and they also have an education offer for socialising lectures where they take regular PowerPoint or Keynote presentations and push each slide out live to student's mobile devices as they are presented. Professors, administrators and students get valuable data on where information is really engaging, or needs reworking and staff and students can interact through the deck.

The rapid pace of technological innovation has an enormous impact on the economy and society. Spreading the gains of technological progress calls for significant system change in education, work and wider learning, to ensure that everyone has access to the power, resources and opportunities to work, create, connect and learn. In his President’s Lecture for 2016, Simon Nelson will explore how increasing access to education, delivered online in a flexible way, can help towards addressing some of the world’s future needs. He will suggest the transformation that needs to take place to make the education system fit for purpose, and outline new approaches to emerging societal challenges that will ensure generations of learners are inspired, engaged and empowered.

MOOCs may have been overhyped, but their impact is far from over, says Simon Nelson, of the online-learning provider FutureLearn, a spin-off of the British Open University. And traditional colleges have a huge opportunity if they’re just willing to think a little differently.

The rise of distance learning shocked universities to their core, but MOOCs never quite lived up to their promise of transforming education. Here's why.
