The phrase "Unite and Win" refers to the desire for unification between the punk and skinhead subcultures. According to the band, if British working class people united, they would succeed in a fight against both the Margaret Thatcher government and totalitarian ideologies like communism and nazism (as described in the song, "Commies and Nazis").
