Mick Jagger publishes two songs loaded with politics.

Mick Jagger released two songs with marked political content, in which he regrets the loss of England and refers to the social turmoil linked to Brexit, the departure of his country from the European Union. "I started writing these songs a few weeks ago and I wanted to share them directly with you," he wrote in his Twitter profile. It is the first foray into political matters in the solo career of the Rolling Stones singer. Both refer to topics such as fake news , corruption, refugees, immigration, erosion of human rights and the socio-economic divide in the United Kingdom. "Close the shutters, lock the doors, London is going to be like Singapore, but not so hot," Jagger sings in "England Lost," a reference to the burgeoning Asian city-state and its strict Political and social controls. For the song, which according to Jagger reflects the difficulties of responding to the changing political situation in the United Kingdom, has the collaboration of British artist and rapper Skepta. The second theme, "Gotta Get a Grip," translates the message that we must keep going despite "chaos, crisis, instability and the Islamic State."
