It was an ill-advised thing to link to, no doubt - but I'm pretty sure it was an attempt to highlight the irony of the the Union Jack vest which the Guardian has just spent an entire article praising...
So, in short, it doesn't bother you he's become a raving right-wing supporting racist, and you're going to continue giving him your money.
Im 54, not in the best of health, and beyond caring about politics any more. I think your description is a little extreme. You would think he’s the KKK leader by your description. I would still do stuff he said something extremely left wing, or if he came out and said god is an astronaut. The only money I really spend on him are concerts. Il maybe buy a T Shirt for a fiver outside the gig. Music I source elsewhere anyway. So yeah.
Flash Gordonnnnn, he is the saviour of the Universe!!!!Well I DO care. I care when some person who is held in reverence by many give by words a justification to others that it's OK to hate. That is wrong, wrong, wrong. Many are not as independently thinking as you, many look to others for guidance. And I have seen over and over again how that guidance leads to hate against others who never asked for the consequences. I care that people get affected through no fault of their own, and I am not going to sit back and let that happen. Hate and hateful politics needs to be challenged.

I see Billy Bragg chipped in on this Twitter exchange as well. Kinda funny how back when Morrissey was - quite literally - calling for Margaret Thatcher's death, the extreme left were queuing up to give him a reach-around, and now they are all 'words have consequences, you can't say anything mean about Islam' etc. Bunch of f***ing hypocrites.
Can I ask how old you are? You may not think that’s important. I lived through Thatchers Britain. That was a nightmare. You think because he wears a badge, or says he thinks a certain obscure politician may bring Britain back together, that’s going to cause mass’s of people to rise up?. This is the guy who sang about killing Thatcher. If your going to worry about something, worry about Trump, Boris and even Corbyn, because it’s all about extremes.
I'm 51. I lived through Thatcher's Britain. I grew up on a shitty council estate in a one-parent family. I know what deprivation is. It made me appreciate people's help no matter what colour they were or where they come from.
I'm not going to take lectures from anyone on this stuff. I lived through it in late 70s Bradford. We all got on. Because we had to.
I despise anyone who seeks to divide us based on hate and prejudice.
He's never defended him............he's cashed in on him big time.
Ffs
The reason is, he was for the people then. He could have said he would be happy if Blair died as well, nobody would mind.
This is about bullying minorities. It's now gone beyond main steam politics. Now it's sharing videos from real racist sites.
He f***ed up. Big time.
Even if you want to go and Just listen to the music, who would want to hang around with his current fans, especially in the UK. Jesus f***ing christ.
So, basically - if you don't like mass immigration, and think Brexit is probably a good thing, and don't think Islam is a misunderstood religion of peace...then you are a white supremacist.
'Real racist sites' - what's racist about what the Morgoth guy says? Quotes needed please. Twitter has a policy on hate speech.

Not the same as Moz. Also Stormzy is for all the people not just kiipers and c***s.
Yanks won't really get the seriousness of it all. They never do.
