Thom Yorke makes comment about the Kyoto treaty

Radiohead's Thom Yorke criticised US President George Bush on US TV show 'Late Night with Conan O'Brien' yesterday (April 23).

While performing 'House Of Cards' from their London studio for the show, Yorke said that the song's chorus of "Denial, denial" was dedicated to "that man who walked away from the Kyoto".

President George Bush famously left the Kyoto agreement in 2005 because he believed that the climate change treaty didn't suit America's needs.
