Keeping in touch with life in modern Britain
Laurence England has a post St George and the Dragon which just made something click inside. Along with many others, I have been sporadically glued to live updates of the discussions going on in various offices in central London to try and put together a Government for Britain. In the meantime, George is doing a gravelly-voiced cover of "Sweet Caroline" with Laurence playing the guitar with a fag hanging out of the corner of his mouth and a hat on. This is a pilot of a possible online busking initiative for George to get a new mattress and and dental implants. For the love of God!
As I say, reading this, something clicked. I've bashed out a comment to promise send the funds for the mattress by any means convenient. I don't know how much the dental implants are, but I'm sure we can sub that between us. They may put up a paypal button or let us know some other online service. Or we can just send tenners in the post. Not recommended, I know, but if the chap can play the guitar and keep a smoke on the go, maybe we don't need to go down the road of risk assessment on this one.

Who are these people?
Listen carefully, everyone. Can you hear it?
"Sweet Ca-ro-line [fill this land]" ..
No? No-one else hear echoes of Shine Jesus Shine? It even rhymes...
Dear Father Finigan
As a poor green man from London, I have in recent years been in receipt of great NHS dental work from the Creek Road Dental Practice practice that has saved me from dentures. I have also received a Social Fund loan for a new mattress for my old www.penrose.org.uk bed.
As you know in Brighton George and Laurence have covered 'Sweet Caroline' and dedicated it to Caroline Lucas MP http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgxhSEBEJwM&feature=player_embedded
They are also thinking of starting an online busking operation on Laurence's blog http://thatthebonesyouhavecrushedmaythrill.blogspot.com/ in order to get a new mattress for George's bed and raise money for dental implants for George as he can't wear dentures, he's on benefits like me, so if you know any dentists out there who want to raise the profile of their business, Laurence will advertise their services on his blog with before and after photographs...
At the General Election former Met Police Inspector Michael Barnbrook, the malevolent neo-Nazi BNP Police Spokesman, stood as a candidate for MP in the Dagenham and Rainham Parliamentary constituency. Nick Griffin MEP, the BNP's leader stood as a candidate for MP in the neighbouring Parliamentary constituency of Barking. The BNP also put up candidates in all three London Borough of Bexley constituencies : Stephen James in Bexleyheath and Crayford : Kevin Saunders in Erith & Thamesmead : John Brooks in Old Bexley and Sidcup. The BNP Parliamentary AGENT FROM HELL 666, for Bexley's Parliamentary constituencies 999 +, was Mr Michael Barnbrook, 24 Holbeach Gardens, Sidcup, Kent DA15 8QW, which is on the doorstep of Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School in Blackfen +
I would be failing in my professional 'duty of care' if I failed to identify, and actively oppose the evil on the doorstep of Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School in Blackfen +, and in Greater London too.
I would therefore also like to dedicate my own anti-Nazi, You-Tube video performance at Barking & Dagenham Town Hall to England's first Green MP Caroline Lucus.

Our Lady of the Rosary pray for us in BNP leader Nick Griffin MEP's EU/GLA/LDA/ODA NEO-NAZI DEVELOPMENT TIMES Amen

Dear Father Finigan
I have just opened the following e-mail message, that relates to this post aka Our Lady of the Rosary's UNITY IN THE COMMUNITY work, and my own anti-Nazi performance in Barking & Dagenham 2007(From Dark to Light Too) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pS9cKgj4UB4 .....
Thank you very much for your support. God bless you!
Great performance and poem!
Keep fighting the good fight.
Laurence and George
Yes! Berenike! I remember telling Fr Ray once that they'd nicked the tune from 'Sweet Caroline' for 'Shine Jesus Shine'!
Neil Diamond should have sued them for copyright.

Sweet Caroline became an SOS voice 999 for the poor in Brighton and the UK with this contribution yesterday:
Comprehensive Spending Review (28 Oct 2010)
http://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2010-10-28a.499.0&s=caroline+lucas#g502.8
Caroline Lucas: Does the Chief Secretary accept that he is introducing a benefit system based on punishment? Does he agree that anyone out of work for more than a year will now lose 10% of their housing benefit? That is punishment. What advice would he give to my constituent in Brighton who has gone for 465 jobs over the past 10 months without success?
