@stainedsteel1 Damn, doesn't seem to be up anymore. Just odd clips from the film, from the likes of X-Ray Spex, and the hilarious Terry and the Idiots. I saw the film at london's NFT back in 1995 and was blown away, then saw it on Film 4 about ten years ago. I think I videoed it: might be worth something...But about a year ago I did watch the whole thing on youtube, but can't see it now...
Punks weren't pro-Nazi. Wearing the swastika was just to shock the Establishment. People in authority were always saying to young people who had nothing, "We fought in the War for people like you!" So this was their way of getting their own back. It's not an excuse, but it's an explanation....
