The scene inside the House of Commons is in every bodies mind these days. The procedures, language and voting system have become shockingly familiar. Politics has split the nation and our belief in truth and behavior is challenged. I began this print at the beginning of February 2019 in response to the constant kicking of the can down the road in the Brexit sheenanagins. Throughout the design and production of the print, the broadcast media has been bombarding me, hour by hour, and minute by minute with the twists and turns of this tragic farce.
