***TEAM BILLY BRAGG PRESS RELEASE***

If this is a reference to the heroic nueva cancion of Red Wedge in alliance with Red Ken, who alongside Red Robbo made the 1980s a truly Red Decade, Billy Bragg endorses your post.

However Billy Bragg will make some clarifications:

• Firebox's (White-like) Minimalism and abstract Propaganda Posters on the walls will only alienate people who like simple stuff like tea, biscuits and (The) jam.

• He feels action is needed and looks forward to a new collaboration with Proletarian Democracy to rival Firebox.

• Billy Bragg is happy to work with anyone at all who opposes Firebox, and will help create a truly Dagenham-esque cafe experience - complete with oil canvases of tea-cups.

• He also feels the youth of today have moved beyond simply potato "butties" and something in the form of a "fair trade" "chocolate bar" connecting modern morality with the peasantry will be an important menu inclusion.

All genuine enquiries (no timewasters please) to be sent to

Wonder what private school he went to. His brother is Tom Kingsley who claims that his fillum Black Pond was made "by accident" which is almost certainly a mix of lies and grating posh self-deprecation.

Excellent, we can tie him into the creative arts paedo ring through his bro and Langham.

His second sentence in that interview tells us, I suspect, everything we need to know about their upbringing:

But maybe one factor was that my family didn’t have a TV when I grew up.

Have I missed something did Chris Langham get all the charges dropped or summat?

Have I missed something did Chris Langham get all the charges dropped or summat?

Having nobody to tell them what they could or couldn't do led to their boldest decision -- the casting of Chris Langham in the leading role. Langham, who played a hapless cabinet minister in BBC satire "The Thick of It," was convicted in 2007 of dowloading child pornography, served three months in prison, and hadn't worked since.

"We were of the opinion, having read enough about it, that he should be allowed to work," Sharpe says. "When we were writing the script, his character from 'The Thick of It' was always a reference, so after a few other actors turned us down, we thought, why not Chris?"

Langham's role has inevitably attracted attention. But Sharpe says they weren't courting publicity. "We just wanted to make the best film we possibly could. We didn't have a sales agent putting up money, so we didn't have to pander to the cynical, cowardly way of thinking. It's not been nice from a personal point of view, because Chris is a friend now, but I haven't even thought about it from a professional standpoint."

For "Black Pond," another university friend, trainee theater producer Sarah Brocklehurst, helped them scrape together $30,000 by writing to everyone they could think of, to which they added $9,000 from their own pockets. Then they applied for EIS tax shelter status, and consulted Ben Wheatley, director of "Down Terrace" and "Kill List," about how to make a self-financed feature on a shoestring.

Money, contacts, all the gear, self confidence. Doesn't sound very "by accident" at all.

How much could you scrape by writing to everyone you know?

Yesterday's Guardian Corrections & Clarifications:

• An article about leftwing cafes said such places had not thrived in Britain since the 18th century "when the likes of Samuels Pepys and Johnson" would gather for the Georgian equivalent of a discussion on the 4Chan website. Samuel Pepys lived from 1633 to 1703, before the Georgian era. London's Firebox Cafe is in Bloomsbury, not Somers Town as the article said (The return of leftwing cafe culture, 22 October, page 2, G2).

They should get Tommy Robinson for their next one.

The next feature by Will Sharpe and Tom Kingsley, the youngest ever nominees for BAFTA's outstanding British debut award, will be a contemporary reworking of Voltaire's 18th century French satire "Candide."

Yeah.
