Ian Martin. It's Simpler To Imagine New People Instead Of New Buildings

摘要

Email from a PhD student, seeking my help. Very enigmatic. She's carrying out research into Fictional Space In The Context of Shared Geo-Political Narratives, but doesn't know where to put an apostrophe. She's particularly interested in secession movements, and could I tell her anything about the Tamworth League. Certainly. The Tamworth League is a global, 'post-Obama' campaign to restore Tamworth to its original status as Capital of England. For nearly 1,300 years the proud peoples of ancient Mercia have been under London's colonialist yoke. I add 'and things have gone well beyond a yoke now!', then on second thoughts delete it. Best not to rush things, we need all the friends we can get. I email her a summary of the League's outreach work and invite her to the monthly meeting.
