THE UNBEARABLE shiteness of Britain has persistent currency in rock’n’roll: from the twin piques of Anarchy In The UK and The Queen Is Dead, through multiple contributions by the Manic Street Preachers, on to Brexit-era wrath from the likes of Sleaford Mods and Idles. Yet in all those 40-odd years, Perfidious Albion has rarely been so comprehensively or eloquently lampooned as by the 13 short songs, full of both punch and age-conferred wisdom, that comprise the new album by The Proclaimers.
