This is my tribute to Muntazer al-Zaidi. The legendary journalist who threw his shoe at George W Bush during his farewell visit to Iraq. Clearly it is based on Banksy’s “Flower Chucker” stencil which is based on a photo from the 1968 riots in Paris. I’ve tried to keep it faithful to both Banksy and Muntazer by illustrating his head as close as possible to the original press conference image, in the style of “Flower Thrower”. I also illustrated the shoe to fit his hand just nicely and added a bit of definition to the fingers. Love to know what you think. Good riddance George Dubbaya. Muntazer al-Zaid may be the thrower, but you certainly are the tosser. / / / / / / /

The 2008 Election was a step in the right direction toward putting America back on track to freedom, equality, and democracy. The rulers will act in secret, for reasons of “national security,” and the people will not be permitted to know what goes on in their name. Actions once unthinkable will be accepted as routine: government by executive fiat, state murder of “enemies” selected by the leader, undeclared wars, torture, mass detentions without charge, the looting of the national treasury, the creation of huge new “security structures” targeted at the populace. In time, this will be seen as “normal,” as the chill of autumn feels normal when summer is gone. It will all seem normal. By Chris Floyd, November 10, 2001 Moscow Times (English edition) / Quoted by Dr. Gary Alan Scott in The Rise of Fascism in America / MCN: C2DCD-CCAA4-A7AF9 FEATURED by C.O.R.E. Visit Active Art

On the 12th June, Briain’s Shadow Home Secretary blasted the government and its controversial ‘42 Days’ law – the right to detain without charge people suspected of terrorism, a law which was by many accounts “bullied” through parliament by the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. Now I have no better solution for what to do in these uncertain times, but I utterly applaud Davis’ convictions in resigning from his position, and forcing a by-election in his electorate. The words of his speech are inspirational, and not wholly transferred onto this shirt. Highlights: This Sunday is the anniversary of Magna Carta, a document that guarantees the fundamental element of British freedom, habeas corpus. The right not to be imprisoned by the state without charge or reason. But yesterday this house allowed the state to lock up potentially innocent citizens for up to six weeks without charge. Because the generic security arguments relied on will never go away – technology, developing complexity and so on – we will next see 56 days, now it’s 70 days, 90 days. 42 days is just one, perhaps the most salient example, of the insidious, surreptitious and relentless erosion of fundamental British freedoms. We will have, shortly, the most intrusive identity card system in the world, a CCTV camera for every 14 citizens, a DNA database bigger than any dictator should have with thousands of innocent children and millions of innocent citizens on it. consider one of the most fundamental issues of our day: the ever intrusive power of the state into our lives, the loss of privacy, the loss of freedom and the steady attrition undermining the rule of law.

THEY’VE AXED OUR DEMOCRACY INTO THEIR FASCISM [2007]: Digitization of an original by the great German DaDa master and a socialist-anarchist no other than John Heartfield. The title ought to speak for itself for those who can see deeper thus beyond the lenses of systematic convention and tradition.
