It is perhaps a sign of Michael Rosen’s impact on British (and beyond) life that as he turned 80 on 7th May he is the lead birthday in the daily Times list. It’s unclear if the paper’s owner Rupert Murdoch has ever read any of Michael Rosen’s writings and its unlikely that he is an Arsenal fan.
Its notable that Thelma Houston and Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann are also both 80 on 7th May while Christy Moore is 81.
Michael Rosen however may have the plaudit that at 80 he is keeping on keepin’ on.
No home but the struggle as Edward Upward had it.
