Letter from Ed Davey to Keir Starmer condemning Elon Musk for inciting violence and urging unity to defend democracy.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

A patch of the textured rust on the railway carriage that inspired my painting. The rusty orange metal has patches of blue in it & appears to be peeling in places.

A rusty railway carriage abandoned in a field. Underneath it is green grass. A couple of green-leaved tree tops are just visible above the carriage, against a bright blue summer sky.

The abandoned railway carriage that inspired this painting.

A collage painting made from superimposed pieces of cut & torn paper & card, with shapes & patterns embossed &/or painted in teal blues & rust colours. Inspired by a rusting railway carriage abandoned in field in south west France.

After colour, texture is one of my favourite things when making a painting! This piece was inspired by the rusty colours of an abandoned railway carriage seen one summer in a field in south west France (see photos in comments)
