I work at the Camden New Journal and play on the Dig It Sound System. Occasionally posting Untold London stories and random, possibly related, pictures.
I (sadly) caught Farage on Radio Four this morning. The bloke deserves nothing but absolute ridicule. He is scared shitless of stuff in his imagination. He’s a life-coward who lives in a horrible universe of his own doom laden mind. His perception of the world, like the MAGA, is just weird.

Just wanted to say the new film by Ben Rivers, Bogancloch, is one wonderful piece of art. Absolutely gorgeous. Give yourself a couple of escapist hours watching it and you’ll be happy. Gosh, it’s good!

The Spurs fans I chatted to today protesting about the owners were all in cloud cuckoo land about the realities of running a club, and the variables in regards to success. Also some laced their anger with pretty unpleasant views. I’m not defending ENIC but wow, what I heard was total nonsense.

Ask yourself, “who, irrespective of friendship, or even respect, would hide you?” Ask yourself, “are you willing to hide the other, regardless of who they are?” Then you’ll have a good guess at an answer. I think we’ll be surprised.

We could just be reading great books, watching good movies, and eating fruit. Instead we have to survive/fight miserable power hoarders. What a waste of limited time.

We no longer have a decent bookshop in Camden Town. The Regents - long gone. Compendium - even longer gone.
Waterstones - fairly recently gone, as have two pile ‘em high outlets.
How would you like it if I opened one?
New + 2nd hand, backed by our many local authors, with readings etc
Yes or no? 😍📚

Good God I thought I was making a joke about the Government handcuffing deportees, but no. And the Labour party are proud of this?
Despicable 🤬🤬🤬🤬

This evening, the government broadcast shocking footage of people being taken from detention centres and led - by force - onto deportation flights. One man was even shown being taken on board in restraints.
Join us in telling the government: These are people, not pawns.
