About the author
My name is Tony Swash
In the 1970s I was a radical political activist.
In the 1980s I helped set up and managed a small business, which was also a workers co-operative, sat on the board of various small business and cooperative development bodies and worked for a revolving loan fund for co-ops.
In the 1990s and 2000s I ran numerous European Union projects, including many transnational projects, on many different topics, often working with various European city administrations.
Through out all this I have always had an intense interest in how politics and capitalism work.
I am also a keen amateur photographer some of my photos are on Flickr
