And they call this criminal justice
Tell me where did we go wrong
Divide and conquer was their weapon
But together we are strong
I remember the day like yesterday in '1984'
The miners they were out on strike and Thatcher declared it war
We stood on Orgreave battlefield as the cavalry advanced
The miners they were ill prepared they didn't stand a chance
They smashed head on into their lines their shields and batons drawn
And on this day that blood was split a violent beast was born, and
And they call this criminal justice
Tell me where did we go wrong
Divide and conquer was their weapon
But together we are strong
Paul Newbury was a traveling man he had no fixed abode
He wandered around the countryside just living off the road
He lived his life without a care, singing songs for you and me
And there he'll stand, with sticks in hand just longing to be free
But the coppers they would come along and shove the guy around
Because he chose a different life they've run him out of town, and
And they call this criminal justice
Tell me where did we go wrong
Divide and conquer was their weapon
But together we are strong
We set out for the Solstice eve to visit the sacred site
The bill said that's illegal as we gathered through the night
We marveled at the sacred stones, we didn't come to fight
You could hear the screams a mile away
As they dragged us from the site
We tried our best to make a stand, we didn't want to move
When the Laws are stacked against you
You're always going to lose, and
And they call this criminal justice
Tell me where did we go wrong
Divide and conquer was their weapon
But together we are strong
Criminal Justice Bill '1994'
Illegal gatherings and their eviction laws
Eviction laws
