Tory leader David Cameron has confirmed that he is a Smiths fan, but did so rather apologetically because he thinks that Morrissey wouldn't be pleased to hear it, and he's probably right.
Speaking to the BBC's 'One Show' on which the former Smiths singer was appearing, Cameron said: "I'm sure when Morrissey finds that he's getting an endorsement from the leader of the Conservative Party, he will think 'Heaven knows I'm miserable now'. But I'm a big fan, I'm afraid. Sorry about that".
Morrissey's response was surprisingly tight lipped: "It's difficult to make comment because you might hurt people's feelings".
