About Me

I'm an ex lobby hack now working in digital publishing but keeping in touch with the political scene through this blog and my weekly column in the Newcastle Journal.

Compose the lyrics to a new national anthem that features an animal sound at least once:

No. Jerusalem should be our national anthem and so far as I know that doesn't contain any animal noises!
