If musical accompaniment is an essential element in all decent crusades, possibly the least surprising announcement of the year is that the Campaign for Free Education is planning a CD to raise funds. It is not quite clear what this successor to such campaigns as Rock against Racism and Red Wedge will be called - Rock Against Dearing comes to mind. But is it not also about time people who are for funding reform got into the act?

What price Rock for Contributions incorporating a reprise of Dire Straits' Money for Nothing, Men at Work's tribute to the ߣߣÊÓƵn system, I Come From a Land Down Under, Pete Seeger performing Another Day Older and Deeper in Debt and the CVCP choir in a delicately redrafted version of Bob Dylan's Crash on the Levee?
