The Politics of Punk

Punk was for being able to do what you wanted and say what you want. By the end of that first wave of punk, it starts to get straight jacketed more into a more kind of conventional left wing political stans. People like billy bragg will talk about how margaret latcher made him a socialist. It's far more accurate to argue that thatcher was herself an emanation of punk,. as some anti thatchers have grudgingly done. She in no way came from the working classes as the daughter of a mere shopkeeper. If you really look at those songs, thit's a song called, london's burning. It's burning of boredom.
