It is interesting to see how relevant your piece is now, a year after it was written.
It saddens me that Brits are no longer taught about our history of dissent. The Peasants' Revolt, the Chartists, the Tolpuddle Martyrs and, of course,...

You can't beat a bit of Hawkwind to cheer up the soul. And it sounds as though you definitely needed a bit of soul cheering.
You see, that's what I like, a bit of education with my highly enjoyable reading. I never knew wasps and figs...
