Author Description

The central theme of the book is Broken Britain. The final poem is a fast-paced 72 page, public commentary ballad, inclusive of continuity comments from multiple satirical perspectives and false advertisements describing the deeds, manner and idiocracy of Britain's most corrupt, neatly packed into a metaphorical "House". Sub-themes range amongst media, politics, racism, corruption, classism, colonialism, capitalism and British idiocracy. The books undertones are naturally satirical, dark, nonchalant, poignant and candid.
