This is your regular reminder that 87% of comics creators in the UK are not working full time in comics. (I’m not, even now!) No one should feel bad about having a day job, especially in these crushing times. You are no less of a comics creator.

Schools in the UK, USA and Canada are already using this powerful memoir with their students. Now there’s a free guide, link below: ‘I’ve been living in two places all my life; the England I was born in, and the lost world of my Iraqi-Jewish family’s roots.’ @TSMCartoons

There are 177 billionaires in the UK with a total wealth of £653bn. Taxing their wealth over £10m at just 3% would raise almost £60bn+ Tax the billionaires.
