Poetry "It Says Here" by Billy Bragg

 

One of our short poems which can be used with the G12 / 4ºM topic. "The media and the message in today’s globalised world". this can be viewed as a single literary work, source for language acquisition and development or a prompt for further exploration and discussion of the points raised.
