Re:Farage
If you were abused or bullied at school you remember it, Mr Farage, you remember it vividly.
bullies however, sometimes do forget the things they did that they would rather not remember…

In 2014 I worked with a group of year 7’s making glass poppies to commemorate the outbreak of WW1.
I remember how shocked they were by the photos I showed them of

one soldier in the trenches was just 12

I have never in my life slept in the afternoon before I started living here. Not every afternoon even now, but it has become a habit, that snooze after lunch (which is now at about 2.30pm) there’s a stillness that descends if you let it and the warm afternoon air covers you like a blanket…

Nigel Farage says he wants to 'raise aspiration' by cutting the minimum wage for young people (currently £10), but reducing tax for young people earning over £100k. Presumably he wants them to just ask their stockbroker fathers to fix them up with a job in The City, like he did.

The memory of an Oak is written within
Unseen til death
Memories of
sunrise and sunset
hard winters
dark summers
gentle rain
plenty and drought
More changes than our memory ever holds
And now
We trace those years with our fingers, touching history we can only imagine
