This was possibly the sexiest show in a while as I interviewed the pant-wearing Lord Zion and spitting contest winner Vikki Spit from SPiT LiKE ThiS, and we talked about their new album, touring, the perfect glob and Rik Mayall fetishes.

Thisweek's Mumin Public Service Announcement was on behalf of the SophieLancaster Foundation - sophielancasterfoundation.com

Mission

Tocreate a lasting legacy to Sophie Lancaster. The charity aims toraise awareness of prejudice against subcultures and also try to getthe hate crime bill amended.

Overview

Since Sophie's death on August 24th 2007, following the horrific attack on her and her partner Rob Maltby in Stubbeylee Park, Bacup, Lancashire, we have had lots of kind offers of support and donations. Sophie and Rob dressed in their unique way, expressing their individuality ascreative artistic people.

After consulting family and friends, we felt that a charity should be setup in Sophie’s name. The charity, known as The Sophie Lancaster Foundation, will focus on creating respect for and understanding of subcultures in our communities.

It will also work in conjunction with politicians and police forces to ensure individuals who a part of subcultures are protected by thelaw.
