How weird is that - the D-ream song was actually going through my head just this morning when thinking of our current situation. Their ex-keyboard player might be able to apply his mighty brain to suggest a way of changing things.

Song popular in the protest movement back in the late 60s, We Shall Overcome
It was sometimes sung by footy crowds back in those days. My favourite version by the (then) wonderfully-voiced Joan Baez.
