• The Picasso of the road

  There seems to be a few of these around London. Really lovingly graffiti-ed vans gracing our roads, or often just our car parks. Long may it continue.

• It’s nice to know the feelings are mutual

  People may remember the quite possibly mis-spelled graffiti in Camden a little while ago professing love for Amy More. Well, not far from the scene another little note has a appeared… ah. Sweet.

   

• Owen Jones: sold out.

  Tsk, even the event organisers say that lefty author Owen Jones has sold out. Tut, tut.
