I was delighted to photograph poet Mahendra Solanki last week.

Thoroughly great chap.

Good times.

Had the pleasure of photographing Maurice Glasman this year, whose name is invariably followed by the epithet ‘architect of Blue Labour’.
 

Really interesting, engaging, unashamed contrarian of the Labour movement. Made me want to study political theory at London Met.
 

Furthermore, he managed to successfully pull off an outfit that contained all the traditional elements of a school uniform.
 

Awesome.
