Subject: RE: political and protest songs today?
I `ad one of them protest singers in my cab the other day. `e`d just done a stint on the Earls Court tube station. Lovely Martin guitar, shame about the voice. I said, "Morning Woody. What`ave you been banging on about this morning, then?" `e said, " It`s this Universal Credit, Jim. Now I don`t get paid anything by the government for nine weeks. `ow the `ell am I going to get by. A blooming stitch up." I said, "What about a job? . That`s one way round it. Try Tescos` They`re always looking for staff." E said, "Not a chance, Jim. I was dissing them last month for not putting enough in food banks. They wouldn`t touch me with a barge pole. Besides, I need the time to write something about stopping fracking, whatever that is!!!"
