Notice to clients: A temporary office location has been set up under that tree in Trinity Belloods for the summer months.

Looks like M.I.A. is continuing her classic punk sampling after using The Clash's Straight to Hell in the mega hit Paper Planes, her new single samples Suicide's Ghost Rider. Check out the extremely violent new video... those poor gingers.
