me + you

 

I was going out, and I have to admit I wasn't particularly keen to be going out in such foul weather. Walking to the station behind a group that were dressed like old fashioned skinheads - I couldn't tell whether they were dressed like for christmas, kind of 'for fun', or whether "the look" is back (along with the politics). Maybe because I had recently seen Anita and me at the movies, or maybe because 18 hole Doc Martins and tight trousers are iconic, but I suddenly felt very afraid. I suddenly felt like we really might be facing a real resurgence of the thuggish far right. I felt afraid to be going out.
