He's trying to claim what's not his! He didn't write the songs. He got, as Moz said, 10% of the performance royalties. Why should he try to squeeze more money from Morrissey that he does not deserve?
It's like an artist, who's painting a picture. The artist creates this great, wonderful, beautiful, magnificent masterpiece and the bloke that washed his brushes for him wants half credit for it. It's absurd. Moz is damn right to battle on, it's a matter of principle.
