Re: 'Morrissey is racist' - Moz responds

UK political blogger Paul Linford has this morning posted about Tory leader David Cameron's adoption of Morrissey as a "musical hero."

He addresses Cameron's visit to Salford Lads Club, and quotes an interesting angle on his choice of This Charming Man as a Desert Island Disc:


"Presumably Cameron chose This Charming Man on Desert Island Discs in the hope that people would think the title suited him. Of course, anyone having found the time since 1983 to listen to the lyrics with anything approaching care will have wondered whether he saw himself as the boy on the desolate hillside with his punctured bicycle, waiting for nature to make a man of him, or the charming man who happens by in his charming car, where the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat."


The whole article, plus any comments, is at Paul Linford's blog:
