Morrissey responds to interview controversy by issuing a statement urging everyone to support 'For Britain':
For Britain is the bulldog breed that will never surrender.

Bulldogs? Can’t breathe, short lifespan, skull squeezes brains, and the poor things are built so ridiculously after centuries of inbreeding that most can only give birth by c-section. Bulldogs are the embodiment of animal cruelty, you stupid piece of shit culchie fash.

I would do anything for my Muslim friends, and I know they would do anything for me. In view of this, there is only one British political party that can safeguard our security.That party is For Britain.

yes, me too, but now given Morrissey has fully came out as fash instead of just saying racist things in interviews every now and then such a stance would seem even more egregiously RONG than ever before

Can’t even commit himself to being a vegan. Meat is murder but dairy’s fine?
― michaellambert, Saturday, 21 April 2018 06:06 (six years ago) link
(Pre-emptive clarification that shade thrown was for Morrissey only. I can’t even commit to being vegetarian, nothing wrong with being vegetarian, just surprised that one of the most vocal vegetarians of the last 30-odd years who makes such a fuss about meat cooking in his presence isn’t committed enough to the cause of animal welfare to reject all animal products)

the "reggae is vile" line is indeed from an NME year-end poll thing, a handful of "your favourite X of the year" type questions. there is a picture of it in one of the smiths books, i'm surprised it's not knocking around online somewhere. he has walked it back several times since. whatever his true opinions on reggae tho, he is still an incredible racist.

as an aside, like.
"Morrissey will become a talent scout for the Attack label"
How did this work out?
Trojan records were great and all, but they did represent the era and the strategy of trying their damndest to appeal to international/white audiences, and my suspicions it's the conscious reggae that came after that Morrissey wrinkles his nose at.

When you're in a hole, stop digging. Or if you're Morrissey, you give another bigoted interview supporting Anne Marie Waters.
I mean, look at the shocking treatment of Tommy Robinson...
