From the newly-retired open thread:
The BBC News website's report of that story began like this:
Poor Mozza really is out of favour at the BBC these days (not that he'll mind much I suspect).
Look at the language there: in summary, Morrissey "denies he is a racist" but has "previously expressed support for the far-right For Britain party".
(For Britain - for those who don't know - is Anne Marie Waters's party).
And later in the article the BBC informs us, "Morrissey, 60, has denied on multiple occasions he holds racist views." That's a lot of denial!
"You hiss and groan/And you constantly moan/But you don't ever go away/And that's because all you need is me./You roll your eyes/Up to the skies/Mock horrified/But you're still here/All you need is me"...
