[NOEL Gallagher has blasted Ed Miliband saying if the Labour leader became Prime Minister Britain, “would go to the *********g dogs”. The former Oasis star added he feels the country would be lucky to have another leader like Tony Blair and wishes David Miliband had taken the reins of the party instead of his brother. He said: “I’d lived through Thatcher and this guy was making a lot of sense. When Labour won the Election and we were invited I never gave it a second thought. A nosey around 10 Downing Street? Let’s have it. “Do I feel let down by Blair? No. If we ever get another leader like him, we would be lucky.”] sun+online http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...e-fg-dogs.html Yes Noel I here you Last edited by arista; 21-02-2015 at 09:30 AM. |

I'd take Ed and Labour over another four years of the Tories ripping the lifeblood out of the poor instead of taxing their rich pals properly.

Noel Gallagher would prefer another leader like Tony Blair, well no thank you,I will take Ed Miliband over Tony Blair any day of the week.
I really do wish celebrities would shut up, most do things for charity that aids them and gets them feree publicity and stop sort of telling people who they should or should not vote for. Likewise Ant and Dec,of whom I loved it when Michael Heseltine on Question Time, wehn asked, did he know who they were, said, no I don't, should I? Absolutely classic. Just as when Gary Barlow appeared with David Cameron in 2010, however David Cameron hadn't a clue which group he was from. I agree with whoever said above, maybe there are some fearsa s to theirt ax bills as to these commetns more than genuine concern for the UK and most of the citizens of the UK too. I have never been and still aren't impressed with celebrities using their publicity platform to get theur current views across as to politics. However since Noel Gallagher would love another Tony Blair, well I think that says everything really. |

tbh i dont know why everyone sees ed miliband as so left-wing, if anything he's quite centrist. having him as pm would be a hell of a lot better than cameron/clegg/farage tbh

Celebrities don't need to spout off publicly as to their views, they are not politicians. Of course he has the right to say he doesn't like Labour or Ed Miliband but to load that with how disastrous things would be for the whole UK is a little over the top. I wonder if you are agreeing with him that a new Tony Blair is needed then. Or is it just he doesn't like Ed Miliband so has comments of value. What Ed Miliband says as to what Labour will do is balanced by the Conservatives and all other parties doing the same. Should David Cameron not be saying what the Conservatives will do,as he is, day after day too then. The sad thing is like papers like the Sun and mail, some celebrities think everyone hangs on their every word almost, when in fact people don't. I massively admire and love Noel Gallagher's songwriting and artistry in the 'pop' world, he is to me a genius in that and over all his work as to Oasis,for me likely the greatest group ever. However, his political view of Ed Miliband and reading of his policies are for me as misguided and wrong as his admiration was and sit seems still is for Tony Blair. I for one, don't need celebrities lecturing us on how to vote or who not to vote for,I make my own mind up on that. I don't get your comment Ed Miliband is on the news every day saying what Labour will do however, we are now in the longest run in ever to a general election date there has ever been,what on earth should Ed Milband be doing other than saying every day what Labour stands for and would do. That's politics. I also have to solidly agree with JoshBB too as to Ed Miliband, he is more centrist, hardly very far to the left which is why the Unions don't care much for most of the policies he is presenting as they fall a great deal short of what would have been their hopes. I would guess the Lib Dems come out with a more left leaning manifesto than Labour again and the SNP is even further to the left as is Plaid Cymru in Wales. Noel Gallagher is one of the most talented musicians ever to surface, for me though, he would do better to keep out of the greater public arena as to politics,especially singing the praises of Tony Blair.

Why in the name of **** are we legitimising the thick political commentary of an idiot who was in a mediocre band that hasn't been relevant for well over a decade? Seriously? Does anyone give a **** what either Gallagher knob thinks about anything at all?

I personally don't think you can ever call oasis mediocre. Particularly the first couple of albums. However that aside, noël is well within his rights to give his personal opinion on politics....whether the media choose to broadcast, print that is up to them but I guess he was asked his opinion, he gave it He couldn't win, if he didn't give an answer people would say he's just a thick Manc twat who doesn't care about politics, he gave his opinion and is now being told he can't....why not. He is a voting member of the GBP....why should he not give his opinion, just because he's a musician, does that make his views any less his own?

I agree actually despite what I said above, I also think Oasis were an amazing force of music and creativity as to songwriting as well as brilliant in 'live' performances too. Champagne Supanova being a brilliant song in itself both on disc and 'live' particularly. I don't deny his right to his view but I do wish celebrities just indicated if they wanted to, who they would be supporting without the 'being used' bit of then having and allowing themselves to have their opinions over the front pages of newspapers. The must know and most of them moan at the twisting of things said by our awful press, that they coudl find their commetns all over the front page. I would prefer them to just say where their leanings are and not go on about it. I agree with you however,I was myself perhaps a bit too strong in my objection to his comments. He does have the right to go down that road,then we have the equal right to say if we agree or disagree as to the comments. Our comments however will not get on the front page of a newspaper. |

Its a hard call isn't it.....new labour were ok for 3 years then frankly evil for the rest.
The gap between rich and poor actually grew to its biggest for 200 years under labour, this I WILL NEVER FORGIVE OR NEVER FORGET. The tories are heartless bastards....so what a choice eh? fake do gooders pretend socialists who create quangos bent councils cover ups back handers and trillion pound debt...or the filthy rich party who look after the elite and maybe the rest of the country will survive on the taxes of this eilte. liberal under clegg are a disgrace.......the plaed cymru are a bunch of petty narrow minded reactionary nationalists....ukip haven't got a manifesto? who else is there? |
