    Kent… Votes for Brexit, get screwed by Brexit.

    Next it votes for Reform? Now get screwed by Reform.

    Why do this?

    A sale of more than 360 art works owned by a Kent council, the authority still holds nearly 1,200 pieces in its art collection. The works are mostly by British artists such as Edward Bawden, Robert Tavener and Edwin La Dell. Most of the pieces are valued at a few hundred pounds.

    ” Last July, KCC sold 350 pieces of work, including lithographs and linocuts, because they did “not represent any official historic value but are nonetheless interesting”.

    What do you expect from a bunch of shitkicking DeformUK Russian supporting racists… they value themselves and their money above the people they are supposed to represent. They’d sell their own grandmothers if they had the chance.

  4. > “While the total financial value of the art is relatively small, the historic and social value of the art, most of which depicts Kent, is far higher.”

    But I thought Deform wanted to celebrate local British culture. *Are they lying?‽¿*
