Hooray The Daily Mail have picked the story up:

Expect Middle England to be outraged anytime soon.
I particularly like this comment:
"I fought Morrissey was 1 of us you know cuz he hates immigrants and the blacks and loves animals but turns out he's an IRA terrorist himself. I won't be listening to any of his miserable records ever again. Gay confused pr*ck"
Thank you for this quote, I never read the Daily Vile, thus I would have never found it myself- it does take a while for people of this ilk to "get it"...if, indeed, they ever really do.
Reading this though has made my day...it has almost made reading all the bitching about Morrissey and the vile comments from one of the anonymous folk, the twit who made the "paki-hell uk" remark (has he not been banned yet, if not why?)Worthwhile.
I am not a Morrissey apologist, he wouldn't employ me (I sent my CV),..and god knows some of what he say is silly,at times, BUT at least when he says what he says he does so in his own name.
These nameless people who can come on here and spread lies and racist,homophobic remarks should be stamped out...if you're not ready to be accountable then keep quite- or be made to.
Even though I can understand why people moan and get upset about Moz, I still find it remarkable that these very same people, still spend hour after hour on here... I quite like him and I only pop in now and again (thank goodness the world screams).
Lastly, I disagree when people say he is JUST aiming for publicity with his latest moan in Hot Press (even if he was so what, he is only a pop star),though I would say that the Queen was defiantly ONLY going to Ireland for publicity.
I wouldn't say Morrissey was pro IRA as such, he just speaks from a certain kind of Catholic upbringing, for that I am thankful, Mary and Joseph (though I am biased, as I come from a similar place), as it is this Catholic base that Moz has drawn most of his aesthetic, moral and poetic mind scape.
Morrissey, has commented about the IRA,Thatcher, The Queen and The Irish struggle a few times before (both in print and in song). His recent view points should really be of little surprise
