        Regarding the increasing bizzare views on justifiable "theft" 
that have been given here, I only wish to stress (again) that there is 
NO evidence (that I know of) that Kate endorses theft, whether 
"politically" justified or not.  Nor is there any evidence that Kate 
herself was a thief when young.  Of course people are free to give 
their fantasies on Kate endorsing there own sick ideas, but I feel this 
should be pointed out.  

        Stephen asked about a Sensual World era quote from Kate on 
politics: 


        I don't think I'm politically minded at all.  Politics are 
something that - they're just not a part of me.  I don't understand 
politics, I don't like what I see in politics.  I don't see politics 
doing any good for people, really.  It seems a very intellectual 
preoccupation, you know, it's a kind of action, isn't it, that does 
things for people.  I think I'm an emotionally based person, and when 
political issues reach me emotionally, which of course is how most of 
us feel the hard end of them, that would then probably move me to write 
a song or something.  But I wouldn't ever sit and write about politics 
- it's not a part of me.   (1989, VH-1)
