Morrissey Launches Attack On Duchess Of Cambridge
Morrissey has launched a scathing verbal attack on the Duchess of Cambridge because of her love of foie gras.
However the indie and rock icon did congratulate her father-in-law first, as Prince Charles has banned foei gras, which is the fatty liver of a force-fed duck, from official menus.
Morrissey then turned his attention to Kate Middleton, stating, “Unsurprisingly, this most savage and cruel commodity continues to be the favourite ‘dish’ of smiling mother-to-be Kate Muddleton (sic) (from whom, in fact, we expect no less).”
The former lead singer of The Smiths then asked his fans to protest Fortnum & Mason, who are the only department store in London to still sell the product.
He stated, “Foie gras production is illegal in the UK, yet the ever-so-correct Fortnum & Mason have found suppliers in France who will keep their shelves stocked – possibly with the hope that smiling Kate will wobble in and place an order for her unborn child.”
Morrissey then concluded, “Since Fortnum & Mason are now the only department store in London who are associated with the pitiless atrocity of foie gras, would you please write to them/contact them and exert pressure on them to stop selling such a savage beyond belief ‘product’.”
The rock star has previously criticised Kate Middleton for her part in the death of a nurse, Jacintha Saldanha, last December when she was in hospital.
Morrissey stated, “The Duchess of Cambridge was in the hospital, as far as I could see, for absolutely no reason. She feels no shame about the death of this woman, she’s saying nothing about the death of this poor woman. The arrogance of the British royals is absolutely staggering.” These comments came in the same week as Morrissey celebrated his 54th birthday.
What did you think of Morrissey’s comments? Do you think foie gras should be taken off menus?
