Morning! 🤞🏻😊I'm entering the fandom recently and I hope you can help me :( What political stance do the boys have? Have they ever spoken to any political party? Thanks a lot❤️
for roger i’d recommend listening to his solo stuff (or just looking up the lyrics) for a broad sense of his political leanings (gangsta’s are running this world, dear mr. murdoch, nazis 1994, foreign sands, freedom train, my country, people on streets, etc). he’s never publicly endorsed a political party to my knowledge, and is generally disparaging of governmental bureaucracy as a whole. he’s also a patron of cornwall pride
“I think politicians are shells. Their skins are so thick I don’t think anybody could talk sense to them […] What war-like twats we are. I couldn’t believe how quick we were to commit to another war. […] I don’t trust any of them. - [undated interview]
“Everybody’s got an opinion and I was just lucky enough to have an outlet for mine,” he adds. “I prefer to stay out of politics, really. I don’t live in a fluffy, badger-saving world.” - [2013]
credited as a, potential, signatory to bob geldof’s open letter re: the damage brexit would wreak on the UK music industry (most likely our roger, however no distinction is made and it could be DD’s roger taylor – most likley our’s.) [2018]
speaks here about being a conservative voter for the majority of his life [2010]
“I’ve often labelled myself as a Conservative – something that doesn’t always go down too well from a member of a rock band. But, just as a gradual realisation of what farming actually did to animals (starting with veal calves and foie gras) made me become a vegetarian, once I knew what a David Cameron Government had in store for Britain’s wildlife, and badgers in particular, I knew I had to square up and fight against his particularly nasty kind of Conservatism.” [2012, daily mail as source but it’s an article written by brian]
“May insists he is “completely non-aligned” politically, believing that animal welfare should be a cross party issue. “I’m not a party member and I don’t intend to be,” he adds.” [2012]
“But right now I would find it impossible to vote for EITHER of these men.” [friday 22nd November, 2019, following ITV leaders debate]
makes semi-regular anti-brexit posts on insta also!!
sorry, i would have linked you some of brian’s insta posts re: brexit but i just subscribed for a free trial to the bloody spectator and read the most idiotic and nonsensical ‘article’ potentially ever written for the purpose of answering this ask and it has drained me.
i’m guessing it’s just brian and roger you’re interested in! the best anyone can really do re: freddie and john is educated guesses tbh xx hope this is helpful!
