Completely new:
Three old videos of me speaking – one at a hustings; one (Greens’ Policies) made for The People’s Politics, a group encouraging young people to take an interest in politics; and one (When Sea Level Rises) at a poetry reading group, about the dodgy future of nuclear power stations – that have been on youtube linked from this site for years, are now hosted on my own site.
