Londoners are notorious for being divided in their adoration or disdain for foxes. In particular, social tensions stemming from Brexit reflect bitter animosity between pro- and anti-fox factions.

Carlos Alba's visual tale metaphorically underscores the shared traits and experiences between humans and foxes, highlighting the disparities between the inhabitants of London's different neighborhoods. In this fable, the foxes become the working class, the crows represent an aspect of social control and the brokers are the elite.
