Mathematics by Hollie McNish (something to play to passing xenophobes)

This is really excellent (h/t James Bloodworth at Left Foot Forward). A little over two minutes of your weekend could not be better spent than listening to this poem. “Inspired by life and a great deal by Philippe Legrain’s book: Immigrants, Your Country Needs Them“, says Hollie. You can also download it for whatever you think it is worth (or read the lyrics) here. Other stuff by Hollie McNish is very good too. “I can’t take my ears off her” says Benjamin Zephaniah. I especially recommend her anti-porn lament Touch from the album of the same name (download for £5 or more).
