Thread Name: Billy Bragg and incitement to violence
Subject: RE: Billy Bragg and incitement to violence
I refer you to my post of 12 June @ 2.45 about the honouring by Spain of surviving International Brigades veterans as broadcast on Today which prompted me to join FaF.

I concluded with: If the International Brigaders had the bottle to stand up to fascism with whatever arms they could lay hands on, so should we.

Not to concur is to insult the International Brigaders, many of whom came fresh from defeating the Mosleyites in Cable Street. There are many songs about both that can and should be used to silence the fascists.
