Awful lot of crap on here.

I don't think anyone objects to degrees in comparative folk music, Welsh folk music Irish folk music or Scottish folk music or sodding penguin folk music.

But what there ought to be is a degree (including performance) in English folk music or it is underrepresented in its own country.

A prophet is not without honour save in his own country.

Go on, tell me that that's racist without checking the source.
