Well....um....
Penny and the guys are all Hippies who started Crass as an extension of their work as artists in the fluxist movement and are still based in a commune. A middle class chap, just like Strummer (who went to private school) they never the less understood the problems with implementing anarchy. Punk is really more about an ethos as is being a hippy or crusty, Raver etc. Political movements and musical/artistic movements have always been very closely intertwined and people change, but labels are usually dreamt up by people outside the movements and after the events.
