    Time to change the record. The world is now a very different place.  As was always very obvious. People always act in their own national interests. The EU looks more divided than ever. Something Putin has developed now ruthlessly exposed economically. 
    To what? If there was a better record released, we'd all have bought it by know, have learned the words and be humming the tunes.  The trouble is, we're left with an empty turntable awaiting the masterpiece we were told was coming.  Hopefully it'll arrive at some point, but I fear the artists still have writer's block trying to compose that tricky second album.
