one part of Derek Jarman’s garden at prospect cottage, Dungeness, Kent, England

after last week’s globetrotting – rust from seven countries all having a reassuring familiarity – this week i am blogging pictures from a relatively small headland on the Kent coast

after yesterday's re-print of Ricky Tomlinson’s article from the guardian, i have received a comment that I should have less of a ‘rant’ and stick to the rust

three things:

1. it wasn’t my ‘rant’it was Ricky’s, in fact it wasn’t a ‘rant’at all but someone just trying to tell some truths to combat the tory lies (aided and abetted by that evil rag the daily mail) that are trying to demonise poor people in this country 

 

2.     no ‘rant’ today, just a link to a Zoe Williams’ comment that has added to an avalanche of complaints to Press Complaints Commission about (yes you’ve guessed) the daily mail http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/apr/04/martine-white-product-welfare-not-philpott

3.     i am proud to be a socialist and a republican

remember: rust never sleeps
