The Borchester Echo The song Jazzer sang on the Archers? (78* d) RE: The song Jazzer sang on the Archers? 06 Apr 10


The guest who seems to think s/he has been "personally insulted" hasn't been (yet) though may have been peeved that it became necessary to spell out the bleedin' obvious. I have denigrated BPC, Eugene Terreblanche and the lack of merit of a mediocre sort of Jacobite ditty. As for whether the jury is still out over the selfish, cowardly and criminally insane behaviour of BPC, I think not. True, there may still exist a few idiotically romantic, benighted airheads still "sitting in their council house waiting for the tartan messiah." But history has condemned the young pretender fairly comprehensively and with right.

Never at any point was I suggesting the "banning" of a tedious ditty like Roses for Charlie nor anything else, including songs of slavery, racism and violence towards women. It is important to recognise that outmoded attitudes and practices existed in our past - even to restage them as examples thereof - so thet we might remember not to go that way again. It is just as important to be vigilant about not letting our cultural heritage fall into the hands of racist and fascist morons.
