We are from Hull and 200 years ago William Wilberforce, the Hull MP, started a campaign to end the slave trade in Britain. He made things happen. However, even today there are 27 million people living lives that are not their own. We think that this was the worst angle on Racism – you could buy people “50 to a Pound” and treat them worse than dogs. Back then, the anti-slavery movement was the first to use poems and songs to make their point. So, the Padds are proud to come from Hull, the home of a protest movement that is still relevant today.
…As for the BNP and it affiliates; a pointless, pathetic and entirely threatening institution that we have an obligation to address with whatever means we have to hand. Tonight it is music. There is little doubt in my mind that these people prey upon the weak willed and vunerable. Their ideals are not radical. They are outdated; a deeply flawed philosophy opposing an intellgent moral majority. My sympathetic side may momentarily insist that these narrow minds require our understanding, that they are re-educated. Unfortunately their exclusive and extreme beliefs have harrassed the free existence of difference for such an extended period of time, I have little choice but to keep my sympathy back for those that deserve it. Fuck the BNP!
