“The far right would ruin this country to serve their wealthy donors”: Hyphen sounds off against fascism on new single Said What I Said

Hyphen has dropped an incendiary new single, Said What I Said.
A popular fixture of his live sets, Said What I Said takes aim at Reform UK, fascism and the billionaire funded media that don’t properly hold the far right accountable. There's even a line about slapping Mark Zuckerberg with an iPad...
“Reform UK, potentially the next British Government, is made up of openly racist, sexist people who say they want to privatise the NHS and want to copy some of the scariest, most evil policies from the US,” says Hyphen. “They are funded by offshore billionaires and have taken bribes from the Russian government. Billionaire funded media is afraid to call them fascists. We should not be.
“The left slept walked into Brexit because we didn’t fully acknowledge the threat we were up against. We can’t make that mistake again. Said What I Said is a song about refusing to be gaslit by mainstream media about the threat that the far right really pose. It’s also just a fucking banger. The far right are fascists and would ruin this country to serve their wealthy donors. I said what I said.”
