It's from 1984, and BB is an ex-squaddie.
But (as is obvious) a socialist with a strong work ethic.

Just because I can, but because I also do believe it is good music, one of his more commercial songs. With the late great Kirsty MacColl below.

For the record Billy Bragg is straight, but at the time sexuality was a political issue in Britain because of Clause 28 . And for Brits - yes that is Phil Jupitus in the video. In his beat-poet stage.
