Bono leaves his villa in the south of France

Quote of the day

Fri, 31/07/2009 - 17:04 by HM writer

Bono has announced that those who dare criticise his political activism only do so because they aren't well informed enough to know exactly what it is he does...

Bono, pictured above leaving his villa in the south of France, said:

A lot of people don't know what I do so they think, 'He's just turning up in photographs with starving Africans or some president or prime minister'.

He added:

[They think] 'We don't like that. Rock stars telling elected officials what to do and then they run back to their villas in the south of France. F**k 'em'.

If you look into it you think, 'This guy works two-and-a-half days a week at this, not being paid for it, and at cost to his band and his family, and doesn't mind taking a kicking'.

But now you've said that, we just want to criticise you even more...

Celebrity Politics, Bono

Are we supposed to sympathise with this arsehole?? At least Thom Yorke does his campaigning with little fanfare and just gets on with the graft. Ugly little leprechaun
