I was just listening to the Levellers' "Battle of the Beanfield", a song which always gives me shivers. I remember the TV coverage of the police "dealing" with the New Age travellers on their way to Stonehenge at the time. Then, literally one minute later, I opened my email to find the weekly delivery of SchNews with the headline "24 YEARS ON, SchNEWS REVISITS THE BATTLE OF THE BEANFIELD". Weird! For anyone interested the link is SchNews Report. I wouldn't claim that SchNews is always the most unbiased of news sources, but it's a useful counter to the pervading right-wing press bias.
