Remember the folk singer whose guitar was trashed by Untied Airlines? He wrote a song about it which went viral on YouTube and reportedly affected UA's share price. The previous petition about the crazy legislation against English folk performing live music, song &/or dance reached 80,000 sigs; which the Government in its usual arrogance ignored. Now there is another petition which will hopefully exceed that no. However there must surely be someone, a duo (two in a bar?), or a group, whatever, in that 80,000 who could write a song with a catchy tune or even a 'Les Barker-type' parody about the Govt making folk singing, music, dancing, etc., illegal in England. If uploaded to enough video clip websites it could go viral like the Untied Airlines one did, whilst at the same time drawing atention to the new petition. Just an idea - Chris B.
