Pompous, Self-Righteous, Virtue-Signalling Knobhead

Stormzy.

Stormzy used his Brit performance to take a swipe at the prime minister over Grenfell.

He closed the show after winning two awards and rapped, “Yo, Theresa May where’s that money for Grenfell? What you thought we just forgot about Grenfell?”

I had been blissfully ignorant of this wanker before today. I’d like to resume that ignorance.

  1. British music has really hit rock bottom (no pun intended) if this clown is the Best British male and his alleged music is considered the best album of the year.

  2. Someone on Twitter responded that he was obviously unaware that all the Grenfell survivors had received offers of homes, £20,000 compensation, amnesty from breaching sub-letting clauses, and amnesty from being illegal immigrants.

    I’m not quite sure what else this person (who I’d never heard of before now, either) expects the government to hand out to these people. It seems to me that they’ve all done very nicely out of it.

  3. Newsthump has a good take on the Brits:

    Could it be that the traditional music industry is becoming irrelevant in the same way as newspapers and TV news? There are numerous ways of accessing music now and unknown artists can record their music and make it available online. It is also now possible to download all kinds of random old stuff, my Walkman is loaded with a bizarre and eclectic mix but I don’t think any of it was ever featured on the Brits.

  4. Symptomatic of everything wrong with contemporary Britain. I am reminded of a quote from the late, lamented Peter Simple, on a similarly cretinous intervention in the ‘Britpop era’:

    ‘Where have people whose primary purpose is the debasement of the Young learned to spout such stale Socialist verbiage, and what hope is there for a country assailed by problems beyond number of creatures such as these can have the slightest influence on its choice of government’
