I think this might be another of those threads that Kid P calls "pissing contests"

[Guy Incognito]

Anyone like to suggest their favourite "protest" songs. I use that term loosely. just songs that define a moment in history or are a reaction against something that has happened.

i used to be big into all these and pretty much all their songs are slagging something off-usually The Establishment

R.d.f
culture shock
rudimentary peni
new model army

the first song that popped into my head tho was Tramp the dirt down-elvis costello (for those that didn't ever hear it it's about dancing on maggie thatchers' grave when she carks it)

[gbsuey]

also... Stiff little fingers-alternative ulster

loads of pogues

anti-nowhere league-i hate people(it's a kind of protest!)
