  • The Faceless

    The Faceless

    They shout, they scream, they dare not dream,Their voices stolen by the machine.Inequality strikes like a blade,In streets where broken futures fade.A system born from blood and strife,Feasts upon the poorest life.No more escape in lullabies,Mask your pain behind your eyes.Let them eat bullets, we’re out of bread.The dream is dying. Hope lies dead.

  • Northampton Borough Council has shown complete and utter contempt for the chamber, the position and most importantly the people of Northampton, as they spend their last full meeting before the elections patting themselves on the back and electioneering. They seem to have forgotten the problems facing the administration, and will face up until the time
