Daily Mail: "Big Mouth Strikes AGAIN! Morrissey is filmed from his BA business class seat demanding to be 'let off' the plane..." (May 13, 2023)

Big Mouth Strikes AGAIN! Morrissey is filmed from his BA business class seat demanding to be 'let off' the plane that was grounded due to stormy weather

Excerpt:
Severe thunderstorms meant his flight from London Heathrow to the Irish capital was diverted to Shannon on the west coast of Ireland where it sat on the tarmac for almost two hours until the weather improved.

But once on the tarmac, witnesses said Morrissey demanded to speak to the captain and asked to be 'let off' the Airbus A320 as he didn't 'want to be hanging around in [a] coffin' for hours.

Video passed to MailOnline shows him standing at the front of the plane, in a blue suit, talking to a cabin crew member who is heard telling him: 'We have to put the paperwork in the computer, close the door and then off we go'.

If the man has a fear of turbulence and bad weather and feels something in his water then let him off? Of course if doors are closed and paperwork is done, he should have thought about it beforehand.

Haven’t even watched the video because, well who actually cares.

 

[🐈🐈🐈]

I am surprised he wasn’t arrested, he should be ashamed of himself.
Instead of pointing fingers at the daily Mail for reporting this, accusing them of trying to discredit him, looking for grime etc he should take a good look at his behaviour. The video says it all, what a prick.

Arrested for this? And war criminals roam free?

 

[🐈🐈🐈]

We’ve all been!

Moz was hammered

 

[theprivilegeismine]

Oh, f*** off, DM! We love this drunken imbecile and a video isn't going to change that. Roll on Leeds and Liverpool!

Knew it would be out today when they posted about it yesterday. Glad it isn't something far worse.

Yes you can be jailed for being drunk on a plane.

The punishment for disruption varies depending on the severity. Acts of drunkenness on an aircraft face a maximum fine of £5,000 and two years in prison.

Jesus i thought it would be worse than this so I am pleasantly surprised.

Yes. I watched with relief. And it was much more composed than (say) Ian Brown’s ‘flying dinner ladies’ airborne rant.

I actually found it quite endearing.

Just ask Peter Buck

REM guitarist cleared of air rage | UK news | The Guardian

REM guitarist Peter Buck yesterday thanked a jury which cleared him of going on a drunken rampage aboard a British Airways plane, in which he sprayed flight attendants with the contents of a pot of yoghurt.

However, Moz’s behaviour was a lot more polite and dignified.

 

[Phranc & Open]

Sad to watch. He is not in a good condition and obviously drunk.

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

is he pissed or just pissed off like any normal person would be?

Anyway … someone made a dollar filming that to sell, how sad

 

[A Man Escaped]

Foe someone known for his verbal wit and flair, I think what will really annoy him is how monotous and silly he comes across.

At least the story doesn't involve race or consensual sex.

 

[Mozzer1980]

Well, his life is a long song....

Oh, give me a drink
And make it quick
Or else I'm gonna be sick
Sick all over

 

[Thewlis]

Drank too much and then said too much
And there's nowhere to go but down

Blimey. You prefer to hear about the other kind of sex?

And someone made a dollar signing other peoples albums to sell. how sad

One is a hilarious genius move, selling the film was not. Don’t worry Surf, many here will agree with your view point, have a nice day.

What's there to worry about, I agree selling the footage was a shitty thing to do, I also think selling other peoples albums with your signature was a shitty thing to do.

 

[Moz Fan]

Nothing much, really.

We've seen much worse behaviours in planes lately.

I guess Moz was just a bit claustrophobic...

Ok, great! then we agree on one thing, at least

 

[Lionsy]

I was expecting something far worse.

Nothing short of Moz hijacking the plane would have surprised me
