You soppy git! :lol:

I was more interested in the anti capitalism Morrisey, lining his pockets from John Lewis for the re-working of his material.

+1, but it's very well done.

someone should do a spoof version where his parents are on the job at the end!

just like champagne socialist Billy Bragg writing songs about urban decay from his conservatory in Dorset.

edit: although to be fair to Morrisey, JL is a co-operative and the workers share the profits (proving that alternative models of business ownership can be successful). i've always thought it would work well for a betting exchange where punters and traders could all share in the success of the exchange.

But wouldn't you rather be watching that piece of craftsmanship than someone screaming 'We buy any car dot com' at you, or a pawn shop trying to pursuade you to hawk your wedding ring for a tenner? :lol:
