9 d. ago If Britain is broken, what is to blame – big money and big tech, or graffiti on your train? | Tom Whyman

He says he’s been making art for 90 years, since he was five.His parents were also artists, and in his latest book he reproduces a Shell poster by his father to show he follows in a modern British tradition of well-drawn, well-observed popular art.
