He mentions about the erosion of English culture, which for the band indeed relates to the curtails on freedom and rights during the late 80s with Thatcher. The band also stands up for pre-Christian English traditions and sites of worship/veneration. But one could also argue that mass immigration - with a population the size of Edinburgh entering England between 2012-2014 - also is a critical challenge to English culture, particularly in places such as the midlands and towns/cities such as Boston, Lincs. In other words, the free movement of the hippies and travelling community come with it the free movement internationally.
