Having apparently taken a rest from his foray into Scottish football, DCAL Minister, Gregory Campbell, has launched an attack on singer Dido for (wait for it) including a couple of lines from a ‘rebel’ song in one of the songs on her album. The song lyrics (here) are apparently too much for Gregory, who wants the daughter of an Irish publisher (with Irish roots, no less) to “clarify her position so that her fans and the wider public knows where she stands on these things.”
We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!
For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.
Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.
If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
