Punk Libertarian rails against UK's Nanny State

Polly Morgan is featured in the latest London Evening Standard. The title "Polly Morgan, Death becomes Her."

The art of taxidermist Polly Morgan is once-seen, never-forgotten stuff. Slightly sick yet eminently covetable, it has been bought by Kate Moss and Courtney Love, and promoted by Mollie Dent-Brocklehurst and Damien Hirst, whose gallery Other Criteria is selling her latest series of work, Resurrection, in which a balloon seems poised to carry off a bedraggled pheasant chick. Gothic yet strangely compassionate – such little bodies, so tenderly preserved – her work resonates with questions: who is this artist, and what dark secrets drive her?

Later on in the piece, her politic views come out, and they're more aligned with the libertarian bloc of the Tories, the UK Independence Party, or even the newly formed UK Libertarians.

An old-fashioned libertarian, she lets rip against the Labour government, health-and-safety rules, bland politicians and 'actress puppets who come out and say, "Don't put on your kettle" because their agents have told them they should be against global warming.'
