Midge Ure hits back as fan suggests he 'stick to music rather than making political comments'

Midge Ure has defended himself after a fan suggested he 'stick to music rather than making political comments'.

The Scots born Ultravox singer and solo artist, who co-organised Live Aid in the eighties, hit back after a fan told him he was at risk of alienating a large chunk of his audience over his comments on Boris Johnson.

Midge had been Tweeting his thoughts about Boris holding parties at Number 10 Downing Street, joking: "After the Sue Gray report, some suggested new names for the PMs home. (Alcohol) 10 Down in one St. (Ability) 10 Drowning St. (Career) 10 Down and out St. (Responsibility) 10 Down to me St. (Truth telling) 10 Doubting St."
