Journalism

Over the years I have done my fair share of journalism work. I've interviewed everyone from rock and roll legends at film premieres to notorious gangsters in basements. I've spent a day as a stone age man for the Telegraph, had a once-regular collumn in my local 'OurTown' magazine and I even won the 2010 Portico Prize for a condemnation of the student fee increases... Here’s a few pieces which were memorable enough for me to collate into a list, with links where available:
