1st January 2020 Illustrated and written by Valentina Peshikaj In response to a brief entitled, 'London - A mash-up', our task was to communicate the identity of London today, by seeking and exploring modern history. As the brief was set on the 24th of September 2019, it was at the peak time British political uncertainty on the outcome of the United Kingdom leaving the UK.

This publication investigated the statistical results of Brexit and creates an understanding of how major political MPs have a great influence on the working of our government.
