I know there are a lot of people venting their UK referendum dismay with wit and vitriol - thought I would start a thread to see if ILM can compile a decent soundtrack for the Brexit process.My starter is a bit of a weak one so I'm hoping it will be quickly surpassed.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-l5FyA3pgo

Brexit had me thinking about this excellent Tom Ewing review of Mouldy Old Dough (which was the UK #1 single at the time the act of parliament by which the UK joined the EEC was given Royal assent)
“Mouldy Old Dough” is residual in a cultural sense – it’s harking back to knees-up piano parties and the stomp and clap of pub music – but it also really sounds like residue. There’s something curdled about it, odd and off, like Winifred Atwell tunes left in the damp. This isn’t old music lovingly preserved and recreated, it’s old music stuffed in a boxroom or a cellar, left to rot and ferment until its queasy return. Its title is literal – the stuff of former pop gone bad.But this dredge through the silt and leaf litter of English pop seems to burrow into something broader and deeper: the decaying country itself, sinking into post-Imperial dementia, singing old songs to itself as the batteries run down and the lights go out.
