Fashion? Consider the context to refer to a particular style
confined to a particular mental/political attitude without the broader benefit of good humour.

I've had a word with our local village Bobby, and with the Electoral Commission, and they agree that seeing as how we fought at least one World War for freedom, we're allowed to talk about politics in poetry.

Apartheid's yolk?

Yep-that's how hypocritical Stalinists get egg on their faces.

There are some very strong feelings about this issue up here in the north-east, among my new poetry friends.

I agree with MC.

A candidate getting the backing of multiple union bosses...the kiss of death surely?

I confess to an uncertainty about WOL being a platform for
political canvassing in this fashion, whatever the convictions
involved. "Over the top" is a phrase that comes to mind.
