I mention this because Lydon turned 60 this week and his question about feeling cheated remains pertinent in the context of the UK’s looming referendum on EU membership. Perhaps it was naive or over optimistic to expect too much from the Prime Minister’s renegotiation with the European Union (although I see Ken Clarke hailing it as a great deal, so that’s not remotely troubling…) but David Cameron did, I maintain, deserve a proper shot at it. The Ukippery approach – Britain is not in Europe (sigh, yes it is, look at the map, it has been since the Roman Empire, it is a geographical fact) is nihilistic and unappealing.
