    People like to complain. Oh billy isn’t that folk anymore, he’s too rocky blah blah blah. Damn this is a great song. I’m grateful that he’s still writing and performing and is relevant as always. Stop complaining and enjoy what you can.😊✌🏻

    Some of these words have offended me. I think I might re-write the lyrics (badly) then pass it off as Billy Bragg's own work. I hope he won't mind.

    Not bad. I was expecting something painfully slow and dull like the rest of Billy's recent catalogue. But this is a good change. Hopefully, Billy will soon return to his older radical music about overthrowing the bourgeoisie and abolishing private property.

      Unfortunately he is now siding big-pharma and the relating digital-financial complex.
      Unfortunately because we loose this way one of the greatest songwriters ever.
      Really hope he will find the way back.
