Mercury Prize 2018: Lily Allen says she was 'robbed' after Wolf Alice win
Lily Allen joked that she was “robbed” after missing out on the 2018 Hyundai Mercury Prize to rock band Wolf Alice.
The pop singer was nominated for her album No Shame and was also up against artists including Arctic Monkeys, Florence & the Machine, Novelist, and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds.
At the ceremony, which took place in London on 20 September, four-piece rock band Wolf Alice won the prestigious music prize for their second album Visions Of A Life.
Shortly afterwards, Allen tweeted: “Someone call 999 I’ve been robbed.”

Not sure if narcissist or just extremely insecure? Or both?
Either way, someone needs to tell her to get a grip.

The PPI insurance mis-selling scandal has turned many Britons into fraudsters, one of the UK's top bankers has claimed.
Barclays chairman John McFarlane said it was "inconceivable" that all the claims fuelling a "flat-screen television" buying spree were genuine.
"The percentage of fraudulent claims is enormous," he told the Mail on Sunday.
The Financial Conduct Authority said £32.2bn had been paid to claimants since 2011, with £353m paid in July.
But it is thought that the total cost of mis-sold payment protection insurance policies could be around £50bn, and customers can continue making claims until August 2019.
"It is almost inconceivable to think that £50bn was mis-sold," Mr McFarlane told the newspaper. "We have turned portions of Britain into fraudsters."

I must say, I am surprised by this news. I thought his story of having come all the way from Moscow to have a look at the spire on Salisbury Cathedral was quite believable.

"The UK's highest court ruled that Ashers bakery's refusal to make a cake with a slogan supporting same-sex marriage was not discriminatory."
............. well it is.
Its just that some levels of discrimination are justified if it goes against your own willingness to participate in something you don't want to.
If they're happy to write "Happy birthday" or "Happy fathers day" or anything for that matter but don't want to write the Gay marriage thing then by definition you are discriminating.
