#ElectionJam A short series of musical accompaniments to the UK GE2015. Listening is not an endorsement. Some are tenuous at best. Number #12. From an era that produced some great songs of political intent. I almost jammed 'Tramp The Dirt Down' but bottled it for this equally potent Elvis Costello song. Beautifully sung by Robert Wyatt.   26

A reminder of the period I became politicised. You can take the girl out of Thatcher's constituency, but you can't take Thatcher's legacy out of the girl.

At a time like this, we must turn to Elvis.   25
