Just watched Billy Bragg live. I was cheering along with the political stuff, climate change etc and then he starts with TWAW and I had to leave. Fucksake

It's very folky though loads of proper trad stuff and you can't move for Morris sides

Yes at Shrewsbury. Wish I was at Towersey because Billy Bragg is not there!! I am sad about Grace Petrie because I thought as a butch lesbian she might get it!? I thought her song about the prom dress was an anthem for rejection of gender norms? What's happened there then

Ooh, you must be at Shrewsbury festival. How is it? I've always gone to Towersey but it's got a bit less folky and more faded popstars.

Grace Petrie plays the same kind of festivals, also very pro male women.

He said he thought women should have the right to be safe from male violence. Then he clarifies, women, girls and transwomen need to be safe from male violence... I was like, yeah and so do men but what's that got to do with anything. He said it was like when we fought for gay rights, and as a lesbian I thought, no it isn't

I was only vaguely aware of him. I thought he was quite entertaining and pretty much aligned with my own views (was slagging Morrissey off for example) but then he starts going, this election will be won and lost on trans rights and I was like, yeah maybe but not the way you think
