Celebra-tories: Busted

Charlie Simpson of Busted

Busted star Charlie Simpson (now fronting Fightstar) came clean about his true blue politics in October 2004.

He told Tatler, the rich man’s Hello! magazine:

“I don’t really like politics but I’ve always grown up with their view – the Tories’ way of doing things. I just prefer it,”

Busted bandmate Matt Jay added:

“From the financial position I am in now, I am a fucking Tory boy too.”

The band went on to invite Michael Howard to appear in a video; Simpson said:

“He owes us one, really, and we like the idea of doing our bit for the voting youth.”

Howard bottled it. Busted did their bit for the voting youth by splitting weeks later.

    I have always known they were idiots.

    If you’re at least PRETENDING to be a punk band then the last - the VERY last - thing you do is admit to be Tories. Simpson deserves a bullet between the eyes.

    Scumbags.
