A cruel twist of fate catapults small time crook Mickey Skinner into the big league, as head of a brutal London gang poised on the brink of a lucrative human- …
Don’t know what follows the ‘human’ but watch this space for the next sickening episode.
The master said, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes, and bring in hither the crippled, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind – and I’ll tear them apart in accordance with my neoliberal austerity directives, whilst growing bulbous upon the stipends from my two part time gigs.
“I am a top feeder”.
“Yet from those flames no light, but rather darkness visible”
Who said that? Very apt words – I’d like to know more.

They aren’t feeble-minded, like most of our pollies, taking kickbacks for allowing the oleaginous to steal our assets. They have the nous, might take the odd kickback, but then find a way to nullify the encircling, choking limitations and controls. ‘When the going gets tough, the tough get going’ and don’t need shoulder pads.
