Punk rocker Colin Baxter was looking for a good night out, getting as drunk as possible to escape the tedium of his life on the dole. He certainly wasn't looking for a fight with one of the local skinheads.

β¦ Synopsis
Skinhead Trog was in a foul mood when he pushed through the door to The Black Bull, and the rowdy sounds of his favourite band The Cockney Upstarts playing on the jukebox did little to calm him. It was bad enough having his bird yelling and screaming at him and then stamping off in a sulk without having some gobby student call him a βrotterβ.
Punk Faction is a new series of short, interlinked stories set in and around a small Yorkshire town in the early 1980s. Written by 1980s fanzine writer and shouting poet Marcus Blakeston, they are populated by an assortment of punks, skinheads, yobs and hooligans. This is life how it really was for Thatcherβs lost generation.
Not suitable for yuppies.
