An inclusive movement?

I don't recall Eliza C saying anything horse-related ("all music is f*lk" bollocks).
As clearly reiterated in the Front Row interview last night, she was stating the bleedin' obvious: that there is traditional music and there is a wholly meaningless monster labelled "f*lk", a category into which anything vaguely acoustic is slung, regardless of quality or worth.

As oftimes repeated, it is my view that the term "f*lk" should be binned forthwith on account of its terminal uselessness.
