As first mentioned on the Moz-solo forum
here, the NME debacle and the wider questions Morrissey's comments raised about immigration into the UK was one of the issues discussed in the 29th November edition of the BBC1 show Question Time in the UK. As Maurice comments in the thread on the forum,
"For the non-Brits among you 'Question Time' is the leading political discussion show in the UK... it's a political institution." (more information about the show can be found on wikipedia
here). On the show, the issue was raised by a member of the audience who asked (as reported by Jukebox Jury in the thread) 'Morrissey has questioned the effect immigration has had on England's identity. Discuss'. Morrissey's comments and the wider issues were then discussed by the panel which included members of the UK parliament. The video on youtube starts from just after the question was raised, and goes on to the end of the show.
Morrissey's recent comments in NME interviews are discussed in a question to the panel in BBC1's Question Time (Broadcast Thursdays on BBC1, at 10.30ish).
The question quoted Morrissey and asked if Britain was losing it's identity. I love this country
:). It's right at the end, so skip to the last 5 minutes of it on the BBC Online repeat (or on Virgin Media if they have it on-demand).
