Thom Yorke has warned Prime Minister David Cameron against using any of his music in election campaigns, warning that he would "sue the shit out of him" if he did.
Yorke, who has spoken out about many political, social and environmental issues in the past said in an interview with Dazed and Confused magazine: "Politics is not a fun thing to write about…I can’t say I love the idea of a banker liking our music, or David Cameron. I can’t believe he'd like [Radiohead’s last album] King Of Limbs much. But I also equally think, who cares?"

“The one thing that saved Mick at this point was Dylan,” Mick Ronson’s wife, Suzi, recalls in a terrific feature on her late husband by Garry Mulholland in the new issue of Uncut. She was talking about the shambles Mick’s career had become after he was dumped by David Bowie and his first two solo albums, Slaughter On 10th Avenue and Play Don’t Worry, had both flopped. Things hadn’t really worked out with the Hunter-Ronson Band, either, and you wondered where Mick might go from here when he unexpectedly hove into view as a member of Dylan’s Rolling Thunder Revue.
