You
can tell we're in the fading months of a government when that bastion of
lefty wokeism, the Daily Mail, calls the Budget an 'under-nourished
gerbil'. One might be forgiven for thinking it was possibly less geared
to vote-winning than successor-sabotaging... or even that there's
another giveaway budget yet to come? In artsworld, meanwhile, things
have definitely fattened up:
This weekend, Verve are at New Adelphi, University of Salford on Sat 9 Mar; or you might want to check out Dark Noon at Aviva Studios (until Sun 10 Mar).
