Als thought for today: Blimey, even the Guardian art critics having a go at us now! Those people who write for the Guardian and have always tried to maintain a high moral stance and indeed introduce us to high art are really annoyed about the sea of red poppies in Tower of Londons moat. Apparently, according to their art critic (a man widely regarded within The Guardian), the fact that nothing is said about German, Russian and French fatalities, smacks of an inward looking UKIP mentality. Art critic Jonathan Jones reckons that the crowds are flocking to see a kind of fake nobility. He therefore links this (according to him) fake display with UKIP. Sorry Jono, being a bit of an art thicko unlike yourself, I thought it was quite impressive. I also think the UKIP quid signs very artistic. Its certainly liked by millions. Nothing fake about that!
