Subject: RE: Justice For England, English protest songs
Countess, I really object to being called a fascist for feeling that the English are getting a raw deal due to the devolution this govt has inititated.
Yes, I know the BNP and their ilk would love to get hold of the music as did Hitler's mob, however, just because they exist does not mean I have to change my opinion as to the need for the English to establish a seperate identity as the Scots and Welsh are doing.
I never wanted the Union to break up, but the break up is happening beyond a shadow of a doubt and we English must address the issue and fight our own corner.
If our music can help in this then that's all to the good.
p.s. I like the lyrics of "Roots"
Wordy. Woody Guthrie and Phil Ochs fan
