In East London, I’m standing in line. Those in front of me are protesting over the 19 pence inflation on the KFC mini-fillet burger. Little do the ignorant know that at the same time 23 women are being buried in the eastern Indonesian town of Pasuruan. On September 15 the helpless were trampled on and killed in a stampede towards a small charity cash handout of around 1.80 GBP (an amount not even worth a six inch Subway).

"Politics is the art of controlling your environment. That is one of the key things I learned in these years, and I learned it the hard way. Anybody who thinks that 'it doesn't matter who's President' has never been Drafted and sent off to fight and die in a vicious, stupid War on the other side of the World — or been beaten and gassed by Police for trespassing on public property — or been hounded by the IRS for purely political reasons — or locked up in the Cook County Jail with a broken nose and no phone access and twelve perverts wanting to stomp your ass in the shower. That is when it matters who is President or Governor or Police Chief. That is when you will wish you had voted." - Hunter S. Thompson

After reporting from Congo for Ctrl.Alt.Shift he was shortlisted by The Guardian for their International Development Journalism Award and sent to India to write for them. He’s also a regular contributor to Drowned in Sound and Artrocker, and as a student he edited a newspaper called The Beaver. Blog

Life's too short to be standing and staring

Dwain started life at Ctrl.Alt.ShiftHQ as a journalism graduate and took to reporting like a duck to a large body of calm water. He’s spent two weeks in the Congo, broken his toe playing footy and wishes to be the first Asian James Bond. Blog
