Radical Soapbox started life in 2012 and allowed a few friends from the left and myself to write articles about what we considered to be wrong with our society. The simple one word answer was capitalism!!

We had quite a lively existence up to lockdown but by then there were more and more left leaning sites and all asking for donations!! Meanwhile I was writing more and more political poems and realised that you can say as much in a few verses of poetry as in a 750 word article. So, I thought why not switch to political poems where there is less competition!! In many ways I prefer writing poems.

You can watch and hear poems performed by me at gigs and you can also read the same poems.

We will be setting up a readers corner where we will happily publish your own poems. Just send them to me at michael@radicalsoapbox.com
