I grew up when punk kicked in. I was a punk. I still am in many respects. I never liked the Clash bar white riot. They always seemed to make and release stuff because they thought it would be popular. Most other punk bands didn't, neither did Bowie, no contest..




TBF, we're all different, it's music like what you want to, dislike what you want to. Just have an open mind.

As a leftie can I just say I couldnt give a fuck about this issue.  But just to wind you up this should be the anthem



Billy Bragg is actually an outspoken advocate of Jerusalem as the English Anthem

They probably heard you were from Swindon and consulted the Football League.

I think the Clash just outgrew punk and are one of the very few that outlasted it and could survive after it was gone.

We rejected the petition you created – “Make 'One Step Beyond', by Madness, the new National Anthem.”.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.

This isn’t something that the UK Government or Parliament would be able to do. The use of the present National Anthem is a matter of tradition rather than having any legal or constitutional status. You can find more information about the history and status of the national anthem here: http://www.royal.gov.uk/MonarchUK/Symbols/NationalAnthem.aspx

However, Chesterfield MP Toby Perkins believes England needs its own anthem and presented his case in the House of Commons as a ten minute rule motion.

And I want a ten minute rule motion on One Step Beyond, you bunch of posh twats.

Irish blood english heart.
"I've been dreaming of a time when
the English are sick to death of Labour and Tory
And spit upon the name Oliver Cromwell
And denounce this royal line"

Pretty much my sentiments
