Morrissey's posters and new album banned because he's opposed to Islam

osters advertising Morrissey's new album, California Son, have been removed from Liverpool's Merseyrail public transport network, following a complaint from a member of the public. Merseyrail responded to his complaint by removing the advertising and said: "Merseyrail will work [with] the third-party supplier to improve this process in the future. Any content used within advertising on the Merseyrail network does not reflect the organisation's values, and we apologise for any offence the publication of these posters may have caused." Morrissey has recently been criticised for his support of far-right party For Britain Movement, whose leader, Anne Marie Waters, is opposed to Islam. He has previously spoken out against halal and kosher meat production as well as immigration into the UK. The decision comes in the same week that Spillers Records in Cardiff, the world's oldest record shop, banned Morrissey albums from its store. California Son, which features covers of songs by Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and others, was released today to mostly negative reviews, including a one-star review in the Guardian, which criticised "the troll-like spirit of the endeavour". http://bit.ly/2JBtZgO
