Hirst Breaks Record!

I.C. - Newsflash (2007)Early this morning I reported that Lucian Freud's caricature of Bruce Bernard, auctioned at Christie's for £7.8m, had broken the record for a work by a living European artist. Not to be outdone, Sotheby's in London has just flogged Damien Hirst's Lullaby Spring - one of his idiotic medicine cabinets containing 6,136 individually painted pills - for £9.65m. Such is the buying fever in London among the uncultured nouveau riche! It's all Gordon Brown's fault. He's the "Labour" Chancellor who made the rich very much richer and the poor very much poorer. He should have been sacked years ago, instead of being allowed to inherit Tony's throne.
