You could do with a shits n giggles pasting yourself Craig - most of what you post is way too serious…
I rather liked most of this article
I think that there is something to be said for cramming the head of ‘the man’ up his own arse; the establishment has grown too secure. I don’t like Trump or 99% of what he stands for, but the soulless systems underpinning politics and economics do need to be shaken up.
