I came across an article in the Metro (that's a newspaper that is freely spread in metro- and trainstations - 230 000 copies each day and very popular). Here is a translation and scan of the article:

MORRISSEY HATES TONY BLAIR (scan)
(Metro, 03/06/'03 - Belgium)

LONDON. For the first time in sixteen years, Morrissey, former frontman of the merry British band The Smiths, has given a TV interview. And he did it thoroughly: a film crew of Channel 4 was allowed to follow him for six months. The result is a detailed documentary with the significant title 'The importance of being Morrissey' in which the singer takes a swing at a.o. the English Royal House and prime minister Tony Blair. He calls the dynasty the impersonation of evil, adding that Charles has got no brains. The always cheerful Morrissey also talks about his hatred towards Tony Blair and the rest of the world. He also lashed out at his former bandmembers: "I wish drummer Mike Joyce the worst worst worst ever for the rest of his life." With regard to himself Morrissey notes that he 's been depressed since puberty and has been taking pills all his life.

    An article on Morrissey is unimaginable in a Dutch newspaper. I'm glad to see our neighbors from the south DO have taste.
    Although bothering our charts with Eddy Wally is truly unforgivable.
    Are you sure that the word "merry" is supposed to be in there though?
