Bio: Rob lives and works in Manchester, England. He has recently graduated in the field of journalism from the Manchester Metropolitan University.

Rob’s writing has been published at his University (MMU), and in UWS and Pulp magazine. He expresses that his pieces are “mostly whiny opinion pieces slagging off Tony Blair and his wicked cohorts. My work tends to start with a marxist perspective, particularly in areas of historical materialism and the classical marxist interpretation of history. Lately, I am distancing myself from that movement because of its inability to cope with the shift in emphasis from production to consumption in advanced capitalist societies. I also have a problem with the current lefts inability to determine its stance on major world events which have taken place in recent years. I’m sure you know which ones I mean. I suppose Iwould align myself with the likes of Jean Baudrillard and Paul Virilio in attempting to make sense of modern western culture.”
