This isn't your station, and it's not your place to tell people to go away. Bill and Becky need contributing punters and want to increase listeners, not have them driven away.

IMO this is a Godlike 10, but one listener's Godlike is another's Sucko-barfo, and that's to be celebrated and to be expected on a deliberately eclectic station.

I've read that it's a double meaning: the Levellers movement and an area called The Levels in Brighton where they're from. The socio-political movement fits in well with their anarchist politics, and their links with the radical activist news sheet Schnews. |
