"Yes - Newcastle upon Tyne, Smokey, is the place within England, the county of my birth, where I have, as a repatriate, chosen to try and settle; but it's not just Aboriginal land rights that I've at least tried to support..."

Newcastle upon Tyne is, or has been, nationally famed for its unemployment, particularly in the manufacturing industry. I think you went there to avoid having to get a job. You haven't done anything to support Aboriginal land rights other than pointing out to a few folkies that they don't mention it on some stupid TV program. Try supporting yourself, and actually contributing to the society for whom you are prescribing your ridiculous and offensive politics.

Speaking of choral music, have a listen to 'Spem in alium' by Thomas Tallis, and look when it was written. If that doesn't prove you wrong about polyphony, nothing will.
