As is well known throughout the world by now, last summer the 'Great British Public' voted in a supposedly political remix of Should I Stay Or Should I Go by The Clash. Whether or not Joe Strummer intended his rousing anthem to be appropriated metaphorically by the likes of Boris 'The' Johnson we shall never know. The result was that 52% of eligible persons decided that they wanted to 'take back control' in a manner which can't fail to bring to mind the sort of person who takes his hands from the steering wheel of a fast-moving vehicle whilst cackling insanely. Anyway. I thought I'd respond by re-working a linocut that I made once upon a time for a novel that detailed the destruction of England. And yes, that is a fucking self-portrait.
