Kele Okereke (Kele) Quotes
When I think of Britain, I don't think of these lofty ideals which once held sway like the stoic upper lip.

I think of shows like Big Brother which celebrate people's discomfort and anguish or kids committing these terrifying happy slapping acts of brutality to each other at the drop of a hat.Kele Okereke Bloc Party
