Stand Up For Judas

Here's the gist of the song:

Judas sought a world where no one starved or begged 
     for bread
The poor are always with us, Jesus said

So stand up, stand up for Judas, and the cause that
     Judas served
It was Jesus who betrayed the poor with his words

From the 1977 album Love, Loneliness and Laundry.
Written by Leon Rosselson, sung by Roy Bailey, with
Firoz Shapur and Martin Carthy providing the music.

Tunisia Jobless Protests Rage

Just 10 days after young man set fire to himself in
protest, unemployment fury continues across country.
Unrest over unemployment in Tunisia escalates, with a
rare display of public protest in the capital. The
demonstrations first began 10 days ago in a central
rural region - where people are upset about poor living
conditions. And now, some of the country's trade unions
have called for a "solidarity protest".
