Radiohead star calls for Tony Blair’s resignation

Prime Minister must be 'thrown out of office', Thom Yorke says

Thom Yorke has called for Tony Blair’s immediate resignation.

The Radiohead singer has posted on the band’s official website about Blair’s stance in the current political climate.

“I’ve had enough of this", he said. "Our government sitting on the fence with the US while World War 3 appears to be breaking out in Lebanon and Northern Israel."

Yorke continued: “We must throw Tony Blair out of office NOW. He does not represent the views of British people. He does not represent the views of his foreign office and officials. He does not even represent the views of those in his cabinet. He cares too much about his relationship with Bush and Murdoch. This man is not fit to be our Prime Minister.”

It has been widely reported that during his political trip to California, Tony Blair, who has been staying at the Mondrian hotel in LA, met Snoop Dogg on Monday night (July 31), at the hotel’s Sky Bar nightclub.
