Here's a recent story posted on the BBC news website:

Dave Rowntree, the drummer from Blur is to stand for election as a Labour MP in the seat of Cities of London & Westminster at the next general election.
What do we think? Do politics and pop mix? Would you vote for Dave simply because you were partial to Beetlebum or Song 2?

Another Mike Reed car crash?
Mmmmm. Do politics and pop mix? I don't know. I bet Mike Read doesn't think they do especially after the nice reception he got when he announced he *wouldn't* stand for high office:

Sorry I shouldn't laugh, but since I always thought he was more than a bit pompous I did enjoy the thread
Would I vote for Dave Rowntree if......
......he was up against Alex bloody James.
