Shoutout to my late father Dandy Andy, who in the early days of the Flembots cut everyone’s hair. I’m not gonna say he was a one trick pony but you can judge for yourselves.

I have massive respect for one of the main Duty to Warn people - James Gilligan, who I wrote about in Shamed. But my instinct is they're losing the battle.

My father lived in science fiction. Read here, Dennis Potter once described him as ‘a black bearded, stiff armed... android’.
He had Parkinson’s + was fitted with deep brain stimulation some yrs ago. I rather think he was happy knowing he’d die a cyborg.
