Our PM writes an 8-tweet thread that not only values a statue over Black Lives but smears anti-racists as 'extremists'; the dog whistle goes out and the racists come & spit & beat & shout Engerland, & he responds in a little tweet that both sides 'have been subverted by violence'
And as Thomas Nashe prayed four hundred years ago, may this plague pass swiftly by fsgworkinprogress.com/2020/05/01/poe…

Words of the day: “Apus apus”—scientific name of the Swift (lit. “without feet”), arriving now in Britain after migrating up to 1000km *per day* from Africa. Swifts whirl in racer-gangs; scything wings, crossbow-silhouettes. Are swifts with you yet & if so, where? 📷 pau.artigas

Arrested for treason by American troops in Italy in 1945, #EzraPound was held for three weeks in a 'death cell' a 6 x 6 foot outdoor steel cage, which he claimed triggered a mental breakdown. Interesting? Come along next week for more on Pound's alleged madness with @danieltswift
