This video is part of my secondary research, it refers to hard times. It speaks in terms of the social realities of life and has a poignancy and people can clearly identify with the content of the song. It is a record which made the top ten, people know it but may not know its content. They do understand the passion and the poignancy and identify with the beat. Like my flicker it has a lighter side to draw people in but delivers a strong message.

This video shows the frustration of ordinary people whose pensions, wages and services are being cut which is raising tensions which are erupting into serious violence and has had revolutionary overtones. It must be noted that here in Briton announcements have been made by officials the over half a million people will be going on strike on the 30th of this month to show their opposition against government policy as the government intends to cut pensions for most public workers ans civil servants.
These are the issues that my project is discussiong. The final piece reflects this growing anger, which could quite well spill over and take on another dimension and fits perfectly with what I have been saying through out this project. We are seeing a growing band of people thrown into struggles of the banks making therefore causing mass crisis. The tensions being created have far bigger ramifications than people really realise at this stage. We are in a revolutionary situation and my work speaks about these matters.
