    Quite disturbing really. He even has a quiff, matched up with a dashing item of knitwear.

  • A Tory liking the Smiths? Isn't that a paradox?
    Or does he just never listen to the lyrics?

  • The smug sweaty twat.

    I am sure the Tory stuffy hardcore will love "The Queen is Dead" and "Shoplifters".

    M3? M4? Who cares? Just die quickly.

    ........a life affirming voice set to a heavenly guitar melody, a killer bass line and a impassioned drum beat.
  • have seen david cameron on tv several times over the past few months and to me, he seems like one of the few tories who genuinely gives a toss about people. i am no tory supporter but he appears to be a nice bloke (with great taste in music evidently) so give him a break :-)

  • ...what he thought of 'Margaret on the guillotine'.I'm sure Tory head office would be delighted to here him singing along ....'when will you die?' etc etc.

  • Cameron was on-line at the Guardian last year.

    Bjorn
    "Mr Cameron,
    As a fellow fan of the finest pop band the world has ever seen, I'm very interested to know what your favourite smiths songs is?
    Do you also ever consider whether your appreciation of fine alternative music is incompatible with being a Conservative politician? "

    D Cameron
    "hello Basically all the songs on 'The Queen is dead" apart from the first one. I don't think Morrissey and I would agree about a single solitary thing except perhaps that he is a wonderful lyricist. Can you be a conservative and like alternative music? why not - we believe in freedom and anyway, most of the Britpop/ cool Britannia/ Blair supporters have given him up as a bad job. !
