Featured on Witness, Show of Hands' anthemic song Roots, was released as a single in 2008 (Hands On Music). A rousing riposte to Kim Howell’s 2001 remark "the idea of listening to three Somerset folk singers sounds like hell"(when Under Secretary of State for Culture and Sport), the song calls for a celebration of British culture in its diversity. However, it was misappropriated by the BNP. Beer and Knightley forced the BNP to stop using the track and helped to launch ‘'Folk Against Fascism'’, giving ‘'Roots'’ to the movement’s eponymous 2010 double album. "Roots" also appeared on the compilation album "The Best of British Folk".
