    I lost my job, my car and my house

    When ten thousand miles away some guy clicked on a mouse

    He didn’t know me, we never spoke

    He didn’t ask my opinion or canvas for my vote

    I guess it’s true, nobody cares

    'Til those petrol bombs come spinning through the air

    Gotta find a way to hold them to account

    Before they find a way to snuff our voices out

    – Billy Bragg, NPWA

    That is the old way to vote. Voting and having orderly hand offs of power is the new way, dragging people out of their estates and hanging them upside down from lamp posts is the old way.
