FLUSH THEM OUT: Attila joins the Clacton anti-sewage movement

WRITING this in Walton-on-the-Naze, part of the Clacton constituency, after a very busy day last Thursday. 

It all began early afternoon, hanging round for ages next to Worthing Pier alongside Labour comrades from both our local constituencies, East Worthing & Shoreham and Worthing West, waiting for Feargal Sharkey. 

Feargal was the singer of the legendary Undertones, whose single Teenage Kicks I must have played at least 50 times during my 14-year tenure as stadium announcer and DJ at Brighton & Hove Albion. His quavering vocal style was unique and brilliant, making him one of the greatest punk vocalists of all time.
