It was originally replaced on the ‘Feeding of the 5000’ ep by two minutes of silence entitled ‘The Sound of Free Speech’. Catchy.

(Although you need to hear the track to get the full effect).

Far stronger than Jones’ effort.

He’d never get 250 crinklies to lose their place in the Post Office queue on pension day.

I had to show my invitation, provide photo ID and be searched before even being allowed into the building.

The security was definitely needed: Green stood, on his own, and sang a hymn while two others handed out flyers. I was quaking in my boots.

Got a nice shot of Green:

It looks like an over-sixties club queueing for the bingo.

I know why I hate Green…still need to work out why I hate poetry…though I have tried to like it…unlike Green.

Maybe a little inelegant but the imagery is certainly very striking and the language is pleasantly vigorous. I don’t know what Green’s moaning about – I mean its not one of the ten commandments: “thou shall not say that jesus shagged mary magdalene”.
