As a regular visitor to England over the past 40 years I get the unmistakable impression that this country suffers from the same kind of malaise as in the US. The main difference is they had accomplished a lot more in England in terms of having a functional society, before the decline began. (I'm not sure if Scotland is necessarily following this same trajectory, so I'm being specific about England on purpose.)

The Duke of Devonshire by davidrovics

I had never heard of Ehsan Ali, or the Awami Action Committee, or, to be honest, the region of Pakistan known as Gilgit-Baltistan, where Ehsan Ali is from. After Ali's arrest, two months ago now, I began to hear from his supporters, who have embarked on a serious campaign to bring international attention to the state repression Ali and the Awami Action Committee are currently facing, with so many of the movement leaders having been jailed, and held in deplorable conditions, with Ali being denied vital medical care. No one who is protesting and engaging in civil disobedience on behalf of their people's ability to afford to eat should be persecuted like Ali is being persecuted. I was glad to see that people around the world are taking up this cause, and once they brought it to my attention, I wrote this song in the hope that it might help amplify their efforts.
