yet he moved to a country built by immigrants and lives in a state with the most illegals in the us. the man is a giant juxtaposition. he left LA years ago. he's also never mentioned immigration. Oh, ok. "With the issue of immigration, it's very difficult because, although I don't have anything against people from other countries, the higher the influx into England the more the British identity disappears," he said. "If you walk through Knightsbridge on any bland day of the week you won't hear an English accent. You'll hear every accent under the sun apart from the British accent." |

A desperate attempt by a newspaper in terminal decline to get more people to read it. The interviewer makes a far more crass racial sterotype himself during the course of the article, but of course he's not the one that the press constantly tries to paint as a racist, so nobody gives a flying fuck about that.
Morrissey has made plenty of dodgy comments before, but this latest ''outburst'' is peanuts in comparison. He hates anyone who hates animals. Not an opinion I share, but it's hardly breaking news. We've known this for years.
Saying that, the interview in question is actually a good read, if only because the man that wrote it comes across as an absolute div, whose try-hard attempts to outwit Morrissey consistently fall flat.

Packaging this kind of sentiment in with otherwise reasonable and compassionate views on animal cruelty is pretty fucking low. Bingo.  |

I just meant, who cares if "you walk through Knightsbridge on any bland day of the week you won't hear an English accent. You'll hear every accent under the sun apart from the British accent." Does he feel threatened? Is he confused? I genuinely don't understand. There's not even such a thing as a "British accent" to miss in the first place. And if the lack of hearing a "British accent" is a bad thing for him, why move to America?
People are strange.

PARAPEPPER HAS ENDED THIS:
morrissey has a cat on his head, (and fronted the smiths) lets move the fuck on here people... both those things are enough for me to forgive him for sins a lot greater than a throwaway comment the likes of which morrisseys been making for 25 plus years.

Nah I think he was saying it's a difficult topic (which it is). But as rubbersoulman was getting at, if he meant to say "immigration is shit" then he'd say it. He's not one to mince his words is he? He compared slaughtering animals to the fucking holocaust ffs |
