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'.

Morrissey filmed in BA business class demanding to be 'let off' plane

EXCLUSIVE: Morrissey, 63, who had a string of hits in the 80s as frontman with British band The Smiths, was caught up in chaos after bad weather temporarily closed Dublin airport on Monday night.

He was probably somewhat rude, but airlines should really deal with these situations in a better way and, at least, give people the chance to get off the plane if so they wish. If it means they have to buy another ticket to continue their flight later, that’s their business. He had a right to complain.

A question: what’s this business class they talk about? Is that first class?

 

[Troubled-Joe]

Actually I wish all people complaining were this civil with tone. I mean he’s not freaking out

Well Said

You are a moron. If he gets off then they have to rifle through the hold to find his bags, and this f***s up everybody else's journey, and makes further delays.

He is a pissed-up, entitled arsehole.

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

I understand this viewpoint. But what can be seen as shameful, unpleasant or embarrassing, is necessary for change. More people should not be afraid to be judged and speak their mind. Especially when he’s probably not the first to feel that way in that situation.

Actually, I wish Morrissey stated in the Central post that he was proud of what he did.

What a stupid, ridiculous thing to say.
He was being rude to people who were just doing their jobs and trying to keep people safe, nobody in their right mind would be proud of that.

@Surface @A Man Escaped

Ok on second thought, that was a ridiculous comment on my part, I’ll give you that.
No, I don’t think he should have stated on Central that he was proud of his actions (which he didn’t).

Though it would have been nice if he explained why he did what he did.
Maybe an apology balanced with how he was feeling about the situation. But of course that would have just been more ammunition for DM.

Dude, no reason to blow a fuse! If you come across in real life like you do in your angry posts, I wouldn’t want to be stuck 2hrs on a plane with you.

Don't be daft, he/she/they are one of those sorts who come the big man on the internet, and in real life are hen pecked and under the thumb. Wouldn't say Boo to a Goose!

I just read the full 8 pages of comments before watching the clip because i thought that between the comments and the clip, the comments would be the far funnier of the two. And actually the comments were terrible and i regret wasting my minutes now, and the clip was a big huge fat honking nothingburger

Sorry to be the one to break it to all of you but when planes are delayed on the tarmac for hours, there is usually much more than just one person who is frustrated/complaining/stressed out/communicating discontent.

The longest time I’ve been held hostage on a plane on the tarmac was 8 HOURS and that was a delay at the point of origin,, and they wouldn’t even let anyone get off then! So that was in the summertime, before a 9 hour transatlantic flight had even left . And i can tell you that people were having absolute episodes, and they wouldn’t even turn the air on.

I mostly especially love the collective Morrissey-Solo judge and jury here, who have ruled that making any kind of dissatisfaction known after a “mere” 2 hour delay is apparently inconceivable and not to be done, … but then presumably will become acceptable… when? After 2 hrs 15 min? After 3hrs? 7hrs? 9hrs?

Pre-covid I used to fly for work even as much as 5 days a week. That’s every day. Believe me that flying more frequently doesn’t make you more inclined to put up with sitting around for hours and hours on tarmac delays.

Also, NOT surprising that people are complaining in this comedy airplane thread about… GASP… the other signed albums

Shock, horror! Soneone give me a drink, and make it quick!

I slept with all the windows open and it rained all night and now everything’s so completely silent that I can hear the water drops slowly falling from the magnolia leaves to the ground. I’m going to make a coffee now. And with any luck, if there even IS a God, maybe by the time I get back someone will have started a brand new thread where they can argue about whether it was MORE of a cheek to sign and sell the Bowie album? OR the Lou Reed album.

And I’d like to see some real outrage this time, please. No No No NO more of this half-assed shit, oh kaaaaaaaaaay?

I do genuinely believe however that whoever filmed this clip and tried to cash it in so they could go buy some extra bingo tickets/lottery tickets/a 4 day Caribbean cruise/whatever, needs to seriously get a life.

yeah, could be. I prefer to stay clear of angry/violent people, especially those that bottle it up.

was it MORE cheeky for Morrissey to sign and sell the Bowie album? OR the Lou Reed album?

We can also include Patti and Iggy, since they were (and are) still alive while Morrissey signed and sold these records, don’t know if that would make a difference. Discuss!

Thank you, babycakes!!!

 

[gashonthenail]

Is that the best they can do?
A passenger complains about a delay and becomes a bit sarcastic and disagreeable. We've all done it. He's not rude or aggressive.
Big deal. Nothing to see here.
I do have to say though - makes me think being out on the town with Mozzer after a few G & Ts must be a lot of fun. He's hilarious!

 

[Eyebrows]

Damon really must be so very patient a person.

 

[🐈🐈🐈]

I sort of did! The worst thing was an actress who kicked the director in the groin at a press night & he was on the floor backstage howling just before the curtain. They'd been dating & had split up.

& (in a separate incident) I ended up having to yell at the crew of a band called Spaced because their sound was bleeding into our stage. There was nothing that could be done but I was getting earache.

Oh, I thought it was a M sound check.

 

[Was I ever any good]

ahahhahaha brilliant

I will add some of my own:
Satan Rejected My Flight
Steward in a Tutu
A Swallow on My Neckrest

1. I won’t see you in far off places.
2. Kick the pilot down the aisle.
3.I’ll never be able to get into duty free now.
4. I know take off is gonna happen someday.
5. Air unapparent.

 

[Malarkey]

Oh, I thought it was a M sound check.

Sadly, no.

 

[Anna anna]

I am very afraid of flying and any hint of issues would bother me too. Actually flying isnt the problem its the crashing part. Last time i flew the guy next to me farted so bad i needed oxygen.

 

[nicky wire's legs]

Agree. But sometimes we need to speak our minds and not live in fear

Even though his behavior was regrettable, I actually think it's pretty rad that he was so nervy

 

[terrancestamp]

"Morrissey, 63, who had a string of hits in the 80s as frontman with British band The Smiths..."

Right....Like he has never performed a day after The Smiths broke up! Dickheads of the Daily!

 

[HimV23]

He is a pissed-up...

you just made that bit up.
