Finally, protest art that unites the middle and working classes. Michael Mortgage's first screen print Starbucks Off (featuring the faux-conscientious coffee chain's logo and a V-sign) was given away to rapturous response on The Outsiders stand at the Art13 fair earlier this year. And in an age when country colonels in corduroy trousers campaign against Tesco supermarket openings, alongside the dreadlocked crusties they once considered an enemy, we can all admire this follow-up edition. It features the British Prime Minister, plausible upper-crust smoothie David Cameron, done up as a medieval Lucifer. Michael has insisted this print be sold at the same sum as the UK's new reduced weekly welfare payment.
