    Good for her. How is she as an actual public servant? Drumming is irrelevant to her job.

      Not good for her. Because she’s a far-right asshole.

      Highly conservative, but not absolutely psychotic like the ones in North America or so I’m told.

      She admires Margaret Thatcher, but does not appear to be brazenly corrupt. Time will tell.

          Sorry, not the politician – it’s Su-Metal from the band BABYMETAL. The musicians that back them up are legit metal gods, even if overall it’s “kawaii metal.”

          Here’s a recent single from them, where they collaborated with Slaughter to Prevail.

            BABYMETAL are kind of cool, but not really my thing. I agree the band is really good.

            Here’s BABYMETAL and Electric Callboy (from Germany) together. Love this song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDnIEWyVIlE
