Jorie Graham has won the Forward prize. In my opinion this completely smashes apart the Us/Them structure of the public face of poetry. (except that Celan is published by Penguin and there is a local tradition of accepting as foreign what you disallow as native) (which means that no British poet who wrote in a manner resembling Jorie Graham's would be allowed to come within 2000 Km of the Forward prize.)
