7:50 Funny how a left wing poet can describe precisely the reason there is opposition to immigration with lucidity and no one calls him a racist. If you're Nigel Farage trying to regain sovereignty for Britain and you're only listened to if you talk about immigration then you are a Demon.

3 broadband is the biggest waste of money ever - DO NOT GET IT! My computer is fast, i5 processor, 16 gb DDR3 memory etc. but as soon as I go on the internet my computer is like a commodore 64. Slow as fuck! I've deleted browsing history and everything but its still so tedious. When you phone up customer services, they can barely understand you, and and you'll have a struggle trying to underdstand them too.

Thanks so much for posting this. I had forgotten the poem and its controversy of the time. I was prompted to search it out following the scheduled broadcast on Radio 4 last week (which I regrettably missed). So glad to have found this.

Hi hyacinthegirl, it's been two years since your comment, but i've just come across this poem and have a feeling I'll be listening several more times. The last lines immediately resonated with me and in keeping with the rest of the poem, I believe they suggest that the inspiration for a poem comes from the working man.. Study the working man

A snapshot of the year. There will always be a V. Conservative v Labour, Haves v Have nots and Manchester United v Leeds United. But today let us move forward. It's us in spite the trough eaters not V them. We have taken to the streets not with placards and rattle cans but Union flags, pushchairs, brooms and hope. If Goldsmith had written the "Deserted Village" like this I would have gone to school more

I actually have 3 mobile broadband and it works fine - i use it on the bus and everything. People here will probably hate me for saying this, but I have had no problems with it whatsoever. Still, virgin's probably better.

Genius. As a former customer of 3 Fraudband™, I can concur with everything said in this. I still can't believe this shower of jokers, instead of being hung out to dry for defrauding their customers, were instead rewarded with the national broadband contract. Someone show this to Eamonn Ryan quick!
