Billy Bragg is great. A fantastic songwriter and a great campaigner. We need more like him, if that were possible. Magic.

I saw him in London in December. He was absolutely inspirational, he is a great musician but is also a powerful political orator. Everyone in that crowd left at the end of the night fired up to fight Facism and do good for their fellow man. If he can convert people one audience at a time then that’s more than most politicians will ever do. National treasure.

How sad the comments on here are! If you don't like him what are you doing searching him out on KZfaq?

Hard to know, they might be expressing genuine personal taste, but likely these are "professional" trolls who seek out or are sent to lefty posts to slag them.

For those who would like to know. Billy Bragg is one of the most insightful, introspective, concerning of our world and the things that live on it....and the things that are happening to it. As well as us.

poncing on working class struggles from years gone by could only appeal to champagne socialists

Well that’s complete b****cks but then you know that Billy has proved his chops over and over again.

the problem with this DEI direction in Billy Bragg's work is that it deploys identity antagonisms and loses sight of the unversalist perspective that alone makes emancipatory politics real - it's of a piece with postmodern micropolitics and pseudo-Gramscian hegemony contests - victim politics - which is why there's so much the fist-shaking. this is a liberal-left politics of the petty-bourgeois professional-managerial class

And what true socialist has an audience of more than a dozen? Who gets national and international media coverage that you approve of?. Change under best of circumstances is unlikely, Bragg has been trying anyway. If we have to wait for people you approve of to reach an audience it is a 100% guarantee that there will never be change.
