The Post-Newt: William McGonagall - the 'worst poet in british history'

Beautiful Railway Bridge of the Silv'ry Tay!

Alas! I am very sorry to say

That ninety lives have been taken away

On the last Sabbath day of 1879,

Which will be remember'd for a very long time.

Concerning the Post-Newt

The Brotherhood of the Horned Post-Newt genuinely believe themselves to be the last rational inhabitants of this planet, fending off the tidal encroachments of blind faith, deaf politics, mute literature and tasteless art.

The Newt is the journalistic embodiment of Spring-heeled Jack, and has been known to leap over the hedges, startling respectable women and burly policemen. Its methods are impractical, its purposes obscure.

Central to its identity is a lack of definition - no less, a publication of blurred edges. It is interested in anarchy, subversive action, samizdat, smashing through picket-lines and beating up communists. Equally, it is devoted to ruthless authoritarianism, oppressive fascism, intellectual tyranny and the world viewed from a bourgeois perspective.

Reason in madness.
