The integrity initiative
Now lacks integrity,
Public resources
Used improperly
To damage opposition MPs,
Most notedly
The leader of the Labour Party,
Yet Tory ministers refuse to see
This is misappropriation;
Stealing public money
To spread misinformation,
The opposite in fact
To the stated modus operandi;
Of how the institute must act,
Conservatives provide a dodgy alibi,
Saying Russians hacked
Into the Institute of Integrity,
While it may have veracity
This explanation lacks authority,
For we must ask ourselves why
It is the opposition who is undermined
At what, for Tory’s, is an opportune time,
While the institute’s security is only questioned
When Tory ministers put it in the frame
With no eloquent response to the suggestion
That this should never happen again.

Word-weaver and artist. I'm Co-founder of Nott Normal; a Nottinghamshire based independent accessible, adaptive and gently provocative arts collaboration. Resident story-weaver for set of virtual Cottage in the Woods courses by Yelala from late autumn 2020, early Spring 2021. My writing and art have recently been part of Poems on Prescription, the National Museum of Justice's (UK) acclaimed Letters of Restraint, and The National Holocaust Memorial Centre's (UK) What is Testimony? Art and written work has appeared in various independent publications including LeftLion, Miknaf Haaretz, and Proliterat. I'm a warrior of various disabilities and chronic illnesses with an MA in Human Security (Peace and Human Development). I've worked in creative conflict resolution, sustainability & interfaith work. I stood for parliament (& local gov) in 2015, getting 9.9%, in the top 20 national results for the party. I've since left politics unless you count negotiating between three cats and a laptop. I love animals, my favourite humans, wild landscapes, accessible cities and the sea.
