It's not often we get political on Drowned in Sound, but we're sort of going to make an exception this time as the man who is often on his soapbox, Billy Bragg, is doing so again. This time he speaks to Rare.FM, which is part of University College London or, more accurately, their students' radio station.

Anyway, listen to what Mister Bragg has to say to Rare FM below, on the issue of cuts to all sectors, specifically education, the protests/riots that took place last week and also the ongoing student occupations across the country.

We hope this was at least moderately informative.
