In #Brighton MP @sianberry.bsky.social received this from Letter👇. The 18th Century physician Richard Russell who proscribed water therapy by bathing & drinking Brighton Seawater will no doubt be turning in his grave. A metaphor for one of the things that made Brighton Popular is now full of 💩

Yesterday (13th September 2025) I found myself in London, camera slung over my shoulder, moving through a crowd I wasn’t there to join but to try and understand. That’s what I do: I observe, I photograph, and I try, however imperfectly, to make sense of the world in front of me.

It's an art - I like to use fill in flash and a big camera when shooting street photography. I am (mostly) inconspicuous up until I take the shot. After a while you get used to seeing something happen before it happens, or you see something happen and go back and wait for it to happen again.

Hi @aaronjbastani.bsky.social I saw your interview of Paul Morland on @novaramedia.com youtube channel and I am thinking you really need to interview someone at @popnmatters.bsky.social to get the real information out to the wider public rather than the Population Ponzi scheme that is Pro-natalism

Van der Poel’s gunning for a historic 3rd straight Roubaix win—only Moser & Lapize have done it. Pogačar’s debut adds excitement, but with no climbs, the cobbles might be his undoing. 259km, 30 brutal sectors, new Arenberg approach. The Hell of the North delivers again. #ParisRoubaix2025 🪨🔥🚴♂️

I am still on X @rupephoto but don’t use it like I used to, I stay on to criticise Elon Musk & I’m sure he doesn’t mind because he’s into free speech. But he’s not into people listening to free speech it seems, hence my inability to get views on my posts. For example this one about going to Mars👇

I should write something about Vance & the way he treated the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the White House the other day, but I’m still in shock at how moronic Vance is. As we say in the UK he is “a right Richard Cranium” But we don’t say it like that really😀what a #DickHead👇

But it won’t be, will it? No, no, it won’t. And I’ll still be here, photographing it. Watching it unfold. Again. And again. And again. Until the end of time. Or at least until the AI takes my job. Whichever comes first.

And that’s it, really. That’s the end. But not the end-end. Because I could go on. I could just keep going. Keep going until the words lose all meaning. But we all know what’s going to happen, don’t we?

Just a guaranteed income that allows people to survive—and perhaps even thrive.

The idea is this: instead of making people jump through bureaucratic hoops to prove they are "deserving" of help, we just give everyone enough money to cover the basics. No means-testing, no punitive benefit sanctions, no absurd forms demanding that someone list every piece of furniture they own.

Enter Universal Basic Income (UBI). A concept so simple and yet so radical that it makes some politicians sweat more than a pub landlord in a tax audit.

So, what now? More marches? More well-meaning but ultimately ineffective petitions? More strongly worded tweets that disappear into the void? Perhaps. But perhaps we need to start looking at solutions beyond the traditional left-versus-right political squabbles.

Even now, under a Labour government, the poor are still being squeezed while corporations and the ultra-wealthy play Monopoly with the global economy. Fuel allowances are cut, taxes are raised, and employment stagnates as companies tighten the purse strings.

Back in 2005, there was at least a flicker of hope that politicians might do the right thing. But after 14 years of Conservative rule in the UK, that hope has been thoroughly extinguished, trampled on, and set alight again for good measure.

With his control over platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and his interests in AI, space exploration, and even brain implants, Musk represents the worrying trend of billionaires shaping policies and public opinion to suit their own interests.

One of the most glaring examples is Elon Musk, whose wealth has not only granted him unimaginable power but also an alarming level of political influence.

Meanwhile, the rich, particularly those tech moguls in Silicon Valley, have amassed such eye-watering amounts of wealth that they now influence entire governments via algorithms and outrage machines disguised as social platforms.

Young people today face a future where secure jobs are about as common as phone boxes, and homeownership is a fantastical concept akin to unicorn breeding.

The wealth gap hasn’t just widened—it has expanded into a full-blown canyon, complete with billionaires flinging themselves across it in gold-plated space rockets.

Maybe, just maybe, the world’s wealthiest nations would do something about the ridiculous chasm between the rich and poor. These photos were later published in New Statesman magazine, which at the time was not widely known for photo stories.
