      I don't think he is necessarily condemning the result of the referendum as a result of people's lack of intelligence or not being 'clever enough'. A common misconception about democracy is that it means whether the vote of the people is carried out. However, whilst this is a core democratic principle, democracy is also dependent on people having access to independent information (this was not the case with the 'Leave' campaign e.g the pledge that £350 million would go to the NHS , which the following day Farage stated was 'one of the mistakes' he thought that the 'Leave campaign' had made, despite being an integral figurehead of the Leave campaign.) Albarn also mentions in this interview how significant he perceives education to be, adding to this idea that he perhaps is not frustrated towards the people who voted but towards the politicians in power who acted in an undemocratic manner by misinforming millions of people, as well as the referendum lacking accountability.

    A bit bad to associate John lydons views with Morrissey's, just because both are outspoken?, Where was the criticism from media, when John called out Jimmy saville? Nowhere to be seen, as for nme , they called Morrissey out on racism for wrapping himself in a union jack at a madness gig, saying it was nationalistic in tone, then two years later Liam Gallagher in Union Jack duvet on cover of vanity fair and Noel with union jack on guitar and no one says anything other than cool Britannia, either Morrissey's timing is ahead of its time, and the nme are too sensitive and left wing even though not that left wing not to plaster their shit corporatised magazine with 85% adverts on behalf of the man?
    Crazy double standards, nme invented fake news, when they promoted menswear!

      yes some people were swayed by the NHS bus for sure. But a hell of a lot of people were swayed by the government leaflet and wall to wall TV coverage of project doom. People are adults, they knew what they were voting for. They knew the disruption Brexit would cause but still thought it was worth it to be out. The Brexit limbo is causing the current problems anyway, not Brexit. If we had left years ago as the result we would be on the rise again by now. But the main parties will never carry out Brexit because they are just establishment puppets.
