Private Eye "Letters from Our Own Correspondent"

#1

Post by Suranis »

Theres a satirical but highly informative magazine called Privatr Eye that I like to read. One of its pages has a fw paragraphs on the political situation on diferent countries that are not where the other news is focusing on. So, in the spirit of "there is more stuff happening in the world than X" I decided to photograph the pages and present them to you.

Its been acouple of months since I started doing this so it might not be 100% current but it shousl at least be interesting

Private Eye is a great magazine. Started in the sixties and has boasted some of the greatest political and satirical writers of the last 70 years.

It was started by Peter Cook, and included a lot of expat Australians like Barry Humphreys in the early days.
