    Hood said: ‘We got to the start of the fourth verse, and the chairman of the council started banging his gavel.

    ‘I remarked, “But I’ve got another three verses”. He told us both to sit down immediately and that I would be receiving a letter.

    Sounds like the chairman doesn’t know his own rules. Typical for Reform fascists. “Do as I say not as I do” except they did say and even put it into writing and still aren’t happy.

    Afaik there’s only “officially” three verses, the second, about scattering the Kings enemies, isn’t normally used because it was considered too violent after WWII. There was a fourth, about Marshal Wade crushing rebellious Scots, but it hasn’t been used for several centuries.

    Never thought I’d see the greens wanting to sing about crushing rebellious Scots 😅.
