Politicians being told not to use a song happens surprisingly often actually, I know Donald Trump was told not to use one, I believe it was “rocking in the free world”. They’ve also told Nigel Farage off, apparently.

    Nah you’re actually both right there.

    They were a bunch of punk activists and also British, so the song is about their (alcoholic) neighbour and how working class people will keep a) tubthumping - trying to effect political change and b) trying to drunkenly unlock the front door.
