Coco Bailey

Eliza must be an ancestor of Boudicca. Awesome.

Mare Obleet

Possibly the best Jools Holland performance ever... Just about tops Bon Iver playing Perth and Sigur Ros' appearance.

James Lovette-Black

This is an amazing piece, filled with deep, old emotion.

Drew Nicholson

James Stewart

boscombefun

buzzabout

Utterly adore this band - possibly my all time favourite (and I've been around a rather long time) - this song rating amongst the very best. I've just been jamming along with the album and fantasise about playing with them for real (as if, haha!). S-o-o-o-o my kind of music though. Just love that multicultural fusion. Audiogasmic! :)

Talk about a multitude of talent, looks like organised chaos to me, Magnificent love it, love it, love it!!

Nate Wodening

You say that as if it means something.

That seems to contradict your statement to me which said; "Since Blair's Government, many English people (those who can afford it and have not emigrated) have moved into the villages and towns where there are still millions of ethnic English people, and where Englishness still predominates"

Phil Drane

You probably need to look deeper. There are two distinct Englands. The major cities, where New British and other immigrants have tended to settle, are now overwhelmingly multicultural/ multinational. Since Blair's Government, many English people (those who can afford it and have not emigrated) have moved into the villages and towns where there are still millions of ethnic English people, and where Englishness still predominates. I live in NZ too, and Auckland is somewhat similar as you know.

birdstuckinchimney

I live in NZ so I might be wrong, but from an outsiders point-of-view it-seems-to-me that England needs to accept that they are more like Louisiana than Vermont.

Phil Drane

I'm more inclined to the view that England is now everything except English.
