Sid Vicious was once asked whether he wrote ‘for the man in the street.’
He apparently responded that he didn’t, because “I’ve met the man in the street and he’s a cunt.”
Thomas Jefferson remarked, “The government you elect is the government you deserve.”
Today’s election results and the rise of Deform UK have finally connected these two disparate insights.
