However, while the Libs man thinks it will be great for music, he doesn and x27;t necessarily mean it will be good for musicians or people on the whole.
He began: I and x27;ve got this horrible, creeping... yeah, I can feel like in Watership Down when the fields start to turn black, because of all the propaganda that we and x27;re getting fed about Brexit.
I don and x27;t believe that this great British nation is capable of doing that to itself.
And destroying my band in the process, he continued. Because I and x27;m the only British passport holder in the band.
