A functioning cog in some great machinery serving something beyond me!



This song is wonderful and intelligent - if only the torries understood songs like this! Hope for the advent of appreciation for meaningful and beautiful music, a day when songs like this gain prestige and accolade from an even larger audience!

I took part in the Student protests last year and continue to partake in events that oppose cuts in education. We all must be given the same amount of time and opportunity as human beings to develop our selves and if that means letting the land lay fallow in order to produce a greater harvest in years to come then so be it! Why are we forced to rush! Many have felt pressured to go to Uni before the fee rise and quite simply thats not what education is about! But if you don't rush you will get left behind? So it's either face high fees or not go at all, rather than be stuck with tuition fee's of £27,000 (thats not including the student loan). Education is about learning how to be a better person it is as essential as food and water! We do not live in a democracy if people are systematically excluded from education because they cannot afford to pay fee's, it's the stuff of fiction of dystopian novels like 1984, Fahrenheit 451...Now even the methods of expanding the mind is a worldwide commodity as opposed to equally accessible and attainable - shame on them!
