Pinned
I’m a stubbornly independent progressive folk musician whose songs focus on social and political injustice, concern for our environment, family, love and life…because I’m actually a human being.
I hate the shit that's happening in this world, and I do my bit to try and stem the flow.
Peace Lives.

The first December Compendium (#240) is also a 'Tenth' show, which means its vibe is mainly acoustic, and there are some really special songs in the mix. Tune in at 8pm (UK) on Wednesday on www.folkfridayradio.com

No actually. If you exceed a tax threshold, you don't suddenly have to pay the higher rate on your entire income, just the bit that exceeds the threshold. It seems the UK media is completely ignorant of that fact. Wankers.

It matters not what your political persuasion might be, if we run out of water we all die anyway. So conserve the fucking stuff! Water must never be allowed to become the next oil, to make rich men richer. We are 60% made of it.

I've been been banging on about water conservation since way before this was written in 2016. Nine years on, and humans are still wasting way too much. It isn't so much a right as an existential resource....for all of us
