At some point people are going to need to come to terms with the fact that the aim of Labour Together was to restore and solidify the party as a fiefdom for pigs, slobs and worms; that it succeeded fully in that goal; and that every person who remains in or affiliated with the party is irredeemable.

One of our favourite drawers - the one with the 50 year-old hot cross bun next to the lucky rabbit's foot! According to our records, the bun was made on 16 April 1976 by a former curator (hence the exact dates) but wasn't donated to the Museum until 10 May 1981. Definitely past its sell-by date!

Hello to my new followers that have found me via my old Sonic artwork on Twitter! Inspired by screenshots before the game was released, it even lead to my first illustration freelance work while I was at university. Here's another piece I did for the launch of Sonic 2 (C&VG Issue 132, November 1992)
