This glorious statue of Old Father #Thames symbolically sits on a grand building at Ten Trinity Square. His image is based with that of #Poseidon/#Neptune, the #Greek/#Roman god of the sea. This was the hillside where #Romans first made their main base in #Britain more than 2,000 years ago. This location, yards from the famous #TowerHill, is where the settlement of #Londinium first began. Now, this building is a 'Four Seasons Hotel', but once housed the headquarters of the Port of London Authority. Many great designs are, in fact, stolen from Rome/Greece. This Greco-Roman building isn't only an insight into Londons foundation but into the plagiarism of ancient architecture until this day. Many give credit to all the wrong places as opposed to admitting who set the highest standards. 🏛

I have lost nearly all faith in the overall intelligence of the nation as the masses only look upon the surface level and then assume they know what's going on. Imagine thinking #Trump/#Farage/#Tommy aren’t antifa when you've ignored or not bothered to look into it all properly. I'm not here for fake follows and cash, or I'd have sold out to Tommy's lot who tried offering me the lot before learning that I'm not for sale. I'm honestly tired of the fakes and the bulldog nationalists who haven't even the decency to study past their social media pages. Hate me if you like, I'd rather be forgotten with the drought of truth than swim in the mainstream ocean of lies.

RIP #LiverpoolStreet, #London
For centuries, this building watched over the citizens of east/north London. Now, it, like those people, is but an unwanted memory from a forgotten past.

Damn capitalism. Damn it's "quick" and "easy" business ventures. Damn it's rushed and unnecessary forms of so-called "progress." Damn its deliberate "busts" and "booms." Damn it's "economic" excuses. Damn its profit motives. Damn its failures and even more its "successes." Damn it's greed. Damn its lies. Damn it's destruction. But, most of all, damn it's true intentions.
