I was one of a million people marching against Brexit back in 2019. Fuck of a lot of difference it made. I fear the poor dears waving flags around in London today are going to be disappointed…

Of course the new sub should be called Achilles and not Agincourt. English people don’t know how to pronounce Agincourt.

Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it.
This is the precedent.

The cover features an image of Elon Musk and Nigel Farage standing together, each with speech bubbles. Elon Musk says, "You’re not the far-right man for the job," while Nigel Farage says, "He lured me in, promised me money, and then abandoned me!" The subheading teases, "INSIDE: HOW TO SHED 100 MILLION POUNDS IN A DAY!"
“You’re not the far-right man for the job”

‘Art should be immersive
Always filled with passion,
And not the preserve
Of privileged detachment’ - Peter Perrett in ‘Art is a disease’. Bloody hell, I think the great man’s nailed it there…
A minimalist illustration showing a packaged charger box labeled "one Union one Charger." The box features an image of a blue charger with the European Union flag symbol and a USB-C cable. The scene is set within a holiday theme, with decorative Christmas trees, ornaments, and gift boxes surrounding the charger box. In the top right corner, there is a small EU flag symbol.
It’s time for THE charger.
Today, the USB-C becomes officially the common standard for charging new mobile electronic devices in the EU.
It means better-charging technology, reduced e-waste, and less fuss to find the chargers you need!
