It's truly pathetic, but
utterly telling of our la la times, that a hack sixth form art project lark, like this nothing little numpty CWS churns out, is now afforded 'genius' status by thousands on twitter {mainly, it would appear, 'matey' bicycle blokes who tag themselves as a 'Global Citizen'?}. As well as the entire Islington NUJ Legion of the Eternally Virtuous. Of Course. {And Johnny Bridgwood's wife too, í spotted in there. Ho Hum
}
Mosely? Rees-Mog? Michael
sodding Gove? This is political thinking at the pre-playground pygmy level. So, because Moz waved a Union Flag at Finsbury Park in '92, this automatically & eternally aligns him with every Monarchist Proms Pom & rabid Tory half-wit? And instantaneously associates him with the malign intent driving this government 'directive' to fly the flag on all public buildings? The simplest of tap-in targets, but guaranteed to garner fawning roars of acclaim from the ghostly, ghastly miasma masses on social media. And "
The Guardian".
Please tell me, what are you meant to feel or think when looking at these "art works"? All í read is other people's warm & fuzzy sense of projected virtue. It's like a Club Membership badge. It is, in fact, Anti-Art.
But, yeah, a cute touch, and í assume pointedly deliberate, that it's a mock-up of the Peterloo Massacre in Manchester. í assume that's one of the chucklesome reasons for Steven PATRICK MORRISSEY's inclusion in his "Charge of the Right Brigade" {a-ha ha ha, repeat ad infinitum}.
Offensive in just innumerable ways.
But, hey, in 5 years time this divot CWS will be one of those 'o yeah, remember that dude's pics during lockdown? Nah, me neither'...
Cash in while you can 'mate'.
