Remain in Light (Aircraft)

Around a hundred years ago (1992 in fact) I sat in Sadler's Wells theatre and listened to Roxy Music founder, top disc producer and professional visionary Brian Eno give an illustrated lecture which included very fluent passages about the curatorial function in a world of increasing information sources, and something a bit hazier about David Bowie's wedding.

He seemed a little outre for a typical Lib Dem, but it seems that Eno's impatience with America and consequent despair with Blair has led him to set up a campaign website to recruit for Charlie's Cessna Army.

Hats off to anyone who can produce albums for U2 and Talking Heads as well as uniting diverse personalities such as Dr Germaine Greer and Nicholas Parsons in cyberspace.
