After 10 years we’re done. I started the blog as there was little history of ranting poetry available and I wanted to illuminate this. There’s also been music and politics of the time to give context, and some fun.
In a broader frame there have been many posts about working class writing through history.
I may make the occaissional post as I turn up things of interest, but I won’t be posting regularly as I have over the last decade.
The blog will stay as an archive as I know many people have found it useful.
Thanks to all who’ve contributed, helped, and enjoyed.
