I'm literally freaking out just thinking about Joy Crookes' words
, the UK's in a super dark place right now
. It's scary to think we're back to that National Front era vibe from the 70s
. I was at this gig last month and it felt like everyone was on edge
. Seeing all those St George's flags waving around in central London made me wanna grab my umbrella and leave
, but also kinda gave me goosebumps
, you know? Like, what are we even doing to our country right now?
At least Joy's speaking out about it
, using her platform to bring people together instead of tearing them apart
. She's singing that Black Boys on Mopeds song like her life depends on it
, and honestly, I am HERE. FOR. IT
people need to wake up, I'm not saying the 70s were cool or anything but I do think we're heading in a similar direction 
. it's like, we can't even go outside without seeing some far-right flag waving around and it's getting more and more intense by the day 
. Joy Crookes is right, it does feel like we're entering a dark time 
. I'm not gonna lie, after seeing all those St George flags in London, my skin crawlled 
. it's like, what's next? are we gonna start seeing neo-Nazi rallies on our high streets again? 
no thanks, let's just hope some people with influence use their voices to speak out against this toxic stuff 
. We need more voices like hers, especially from musicians who have the reach to inspire change 
. It feels like we're seeing a lot of similar vibes to the 70s, with all this nationalism and far-right stuff popping up everywhere. I mean, I was at a gig recently and there were loads of St George's flags flying around central London - it just felt super unsettling 
. And Joy Crookes said something that really resonated with me - she feels like we're entering a 'dark time'... let's hope we can turn things around before it's too late
