Wasn't Red Wedge the 'movement', bringing together musicians supportive of Labour, rather than a band?

I thought with the wordplay on 'Right to Work',
I was setting the scene to take the piss out of people, (like me),
who are old enough to have gone on any of those futile '80s marches against
'Maggie Outoutout' (as some may have mistakenly thought to be her surname),
and have lost some of the detail.
With the passage of time I am unable to remember if the Paul Weller appearance I saw was a Style Council gig, (on the back of a flatbed truck), or, 'PW + friends'.
tl:dr online humour, forget it.

Certain I went on a 'Light to Work' march back in the '80s.
Saw Billy Bragg and Red Wedge play.
