#ANNIECLARK: arrives on stage and does not disappoint us. At least not until she posted a picture afterwards of her hanging out with the vile, slithery, creature known as Johnny Depp. Ugh. Great show though, we queued all afternoon to get to the front. #stvincent #royalalberthall #gig #concert #london
#UNRIGHT: I walked smack into career criminal Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon‘s latest grift to part people from their money, a protest march to #Whitehall. A mess of incoherent ideas and confused messages, there were a LOT more marchers than I was expecting, and surprisingly little hostility from the crowd. I was standing there in full gig regalia as well, leather jacket and rock star trousers and hair everywhere, but the crowd were fairly amiable. I can understand and appreciate why vast swathes of the country are pissed off right now, even while they’re unable to clearly articulate why, and ripe for another grifter like Yaxley-Lennon or Farage to rally them. The police officer nearby who filled me in on what was going on, and we had a brief chat about the difficulty of reasoning with such a jumble of unclear and contradictory ideas. Charles Babbage’s remark seems fitting, “I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.” #farright #streetphotography #protest #london #millbank #engerland

#KENNY: after accidentally walking headlong into Tommy Robinson’s protest march staggering down Millbank - and staggering they were due to the endless cans of cider and lager that were being consumed - I stopped off at the Tate in my old neighbourhood and walked back up towards Strutton Ground, and bumped into Kenny here. I said hello and stopped to chat, very nice fella, he was heading home after a long day doing his thing. Gave me some leaflets. #london #millbank #portrait #christian

#HEARTWORMS: @iamheartworms doing their best #Siouxsie opening for @st_vincent at the #royalalberthall. Queued from about 15:30 to get to the second row for both these acts, and both delivered. #gig #music #life #london

#THAMESMEAD: throwback to that time @gwingwyn and I got up early to visit this fascinating and very unusual place where a council estate sits on a wildlife sanctuary. I hear things have developed a bit since 2007 but as one resident told me, “they’ve been saying they’d improve it for twenty years and nothing’s happened,” so a further trip awaits one day. #swan #london #councilestatelife #southlondon #housingestate #wildlifesanctuary
