George Michael's incarnation as leftish firebrand: C or D?

Did anyone catch the Daily Mirror today? George is releasing a single called "Howdy Poodle" lampooning Blair's shamless licking of Dubya's pert, terrorist-with-a-huge arse(nal).

I'm saying Classic by the way.

Sorry, that should of course be "shameless". It's late.

George Michael is the new Johnny Rotten!

The tories have been in power for 20-odd years now so it's not surprising.

Hilarious video. Is that Phil Oakey singing on the track?

Ah, it's a Human League sample. Ofcourse.

one year passes...

I seem to recall in the lead-up to war in Iraq, Michael sparred with Iain Duncan-Smith (& the world says now, 'who's he?' ;-)) on the Today programme on the subject. Acquitted himself pretty well I recall.
He does seem to have become a bit of an unlikely firebrand...!
When is he going to release a new album? It's been 7 years since 'Older'... he is certainly one of the brighter talents of the mid-80s pop ascendancy (i.e. post New Pop).
