Mr Attenborough was a little bit premature praising the "plastic free" Glasto, which has been revelaed in the papers today to be knee deep in plastic waste like every other year.

Each generation thinks it invents everything.
I was not impressed by the lineup this year. I expect none of the sets to compare with the Foo Fighters in 2017.
While I made the most of the Killers headline act, the rest of the last two evenings performances were lackluster. Although Jeff Goldblum's band was surprisingly to my taste.
Just catching up with The Chemical Brothers now (its actually on par with The Killers performance last night). Then its Vampire Weekend but mostly The Streets Im looking forward to tonight. Not everyone's thing, but I like Mike Skinner's style.
I will catch up with The Cure tomorrow.

Yes, he should have boycotted it, for sure.

I can imagine the Daily Mail loving that...along with their usual rant about black rappers with social consciences, the BBC spending too much money covering it and young kids generally relaxing and having a great time

To be fair ( and i'm not bashing the 'eat less but better meat' mob here - they have a good point ) there is a bit of cognitive dissonance around being a hard line vegan, and attending a music festival held on a working dairy farm.
If that good cropping ground was all down to field beans, or combining peas then it would make it harder to festivalise on.
Although i suppose they could use the fields when they were in the fertility building red clover ryegrass portion of the rotation and get away with it..

There was one such picture posted in one of them comics just recently deriding the supposed greenness of said festival -
The same paper did have to later fess up [in a tiny box] that they had taken a stock photo of rubbish left at a European festival , but of course by then the prejudgements had already been reinforced.
I agree there is a lot of waste, and rubbish left at these festivals by many of the youth ( and older ones)
But who brought them up in, and created, the consumer, throwaway easy, cos you can get more from China. dirt cheap, society ??
Kids, and many grown ups too tend to follow the lead of those around them..
It becomes almost pointless to be careful with your rubbish when every one else is just dumping theirs down. Its the culture ( or lack of it ) innit
It's got better
Kylie's just a karaoke queen.... Singalong hit after hit. The crowd (& my partner) are loving it.
She's putting on a great pop show.
