BRAVO! .•°`'★ Jarvis Cocker! (Fantastic idea to invite Jarvis !) The man is totally underrated, and underestimated. A real shame that people like him are unavailable for politics ! But then again, they wouldn't stand a chance of introducing their qualities into politics anyways, which is probably the main reason, a Mr.Cocker isn't even tempted to become a politician. He is much too smart for it, and he has principles - which is a no-go in politics. My hope for the future is, that one day the Mr.Cockers of this world take over the governing ... ♥
I completely find the idea that there would be a contemporary war between European nations if there were no EU a total hyperbolic laugh! As for London welcoming foreigners, it's always been so! Even before the UK joined the EU and I don't understand why everyone is pretending it wasn't so.

@joanofarc33 Yes, but those immigrants were either from the Commonwealth and/or former colonies of the Empire. Thus they were familiar with the way of life in Britain and had no qualms about assimilating, in fact they were *keen* to become British. These "new" immigrants are "economic immigrants" and have *no desire* to embrace their new country's way of life. They simply see no reason to change as they have no love for Britain or its people.
"We're all building walls, they should be bridges" - thank you Jarvis

It's RUclips and I expected little of the comments. I wasn't disappointed. Rabid trolls took over as usual. Jarvis for Prime Minister!

I've just watched this again ... in March 2023. ...
I'm so very pleased that Jarvis Cocker is unhappy about Brexit. It makes it even sweeter.
Hi is no longer a common person
Jackson fan? 😂 🇪🇺
Jarvis knows his shit
Lq1q
Since when has buskers and cabaret acts had any more say in British politics than anyone else.

A bit too welcoming of foreigners. Speaking as a white Englishman in East London.

Jarvis Cocker defending the establishment....John Lennon must be turning in his grave
Love you to bits Jarvis but I'm afraid you are hopelessly naive. There are some groups I'm afraid that very much see an Us and them.

YOU WROTE A BAD SONG PETEY!!!
What's wrong with fox hunting?
Nothing, except (I believe) no one has any use for a fox, dead or alive.
Hunting helpless animals shows that you have serious character flaws. And it's illegal. Anything else?
