Herne Hill, May 2018

(Until recently, the walls in the Herne Hill railway station arches were lined with Artex panels—their removal uncovered some Militant posters pasted to the wall, which dated from the 1984 miners’ strike. They feature the slogans, ‘Save the Pits!’ and ‘Will we be able to buy it back again when I want a job, Dad?’)
