My boyfriend has been recounting the highlights to me and it sounds like good fun. Excitingly, there is a bit where he goes to the pub on my estate with Chrissie Hynde!
"I see no difference between eating animals and paedophilia," he said. "They are both rape, violence, murder. If I'm introduced to anyone who eats beings, I walk away." (Morrissey)
"Nothing is important, so people, realising that, should get on with their lives, go mad, take their clothes off, jump in the canal, jump into one of those supermarket trolleys, race around the supermarket and steal Mars bars and kiss kittens"
@simonp Have to agree - I'm not sure rape is an everyday part of meat production. It sounded from the reviews as if it could have done with a great deal of editing.
@simonp@BarneyRubble I read that on a friends Facebook yesterday too. I have been a veggie since I was 9 but don't share that view! As always he does like to shock us all once in a while :)
@Bukowski You posted the same quote when I posted 'Rusholme Ruffians' about this time last year. It was what made you interesting to me p.s it is your Smiths comment just like 'Best band since The Beatles' is your Radiohead comment. I could go on lol x

The bit where Morrissey scolds Bowie at a breakfast buffet is the best.

@BarneyRubble well that to me sums up exactly why he's gone beyond controversial to being completely unhinged
