Morrissey claims Marine Le Pen “easily” won French election debate

“This is precisely the reason why mainstream news media outlets cannot be trusted to tell the truth.”

Morrissey is at it again.

Following this week’s French election debate, The Smiths’ frontman has issued a statement via his keyboard player Gustavo Manzur’s Facebook page, stating that far-right candidate Marine Le Pen “easily won” the contest.

“Last night Marine Le Pen easily won the French Election debate. Today both the BBC and CNN say Macron won the debate. This is precisely the reason why mainstream news media outlets cannot be trusted to tell the truth. Their private agendas are more important than facts, reality, or their duty to the people.”

This follows on from him calling Brexit “magnificent” last October. Moz, ‘mate’ – we just don’t think we’re gonna see eye to eye on this one.
