Jamie’s ‘Fish Stew’ song must be heard by all!
This @cursedobjectsuk.bsky.social interview from Mar 24 w/ Nick Bano about his book Against Landlords is really interesting. It's about the housing crisis as one of affordability, not of supply. Also an interesting ref (given recent echos) to the Enoch Powell speech.
I see your Gyles Brandreth's jumpers exhibit and raise you Thame Museum's Robin Gibb Gallery, a lovingly curated tribute to the late Bee Gee.
And more information on the exhibition itself is here. It's free, at Birkbeck's Peltz Gallery, 2 May - 26 June. Come and see some of the weird, cursed tat we've found in the museum shops of Great Britain - like the Charles 'Duckens' rubber duck 🦆 www.cursedobjects.co.uk/events/mp1jq...
