Gallagher attacks street 'scumbags' Theotherboleyngirlwallpim3


Noel Gallagher talked about the prevalence of knives and the "scumbags taking over our streets" as he arrived to pick up a lifetime achievement award for Oasis.

Oasis were receiving the award celebrating their contribution to the music industry at the 33rd O2 Silver Clef Lunch.

Noel was asked about knives taking over the streets and replied: "It's horrible. It's horrible."

He said the problem wasn't only in London as he'd visited Liverpool recently and seen knife-related incidents on the news.

He continued: "The scumbags are taking over the streets you know. I don't even know what Cameron and Gordon Brown are going to do about it."

He continued: "It all goes back to the Thatcher years. It's a cliche to say it but that's where the rot set in."

He said in the North there were rows and rows of derelict houses. He said: "Me and the missus talk about it at night about how our kids are going to grow up. I don't know what you can do.

"In my day, status was trying to be somebody, do you know what I mean, not trying to kill somebody. So how's that all changed? It's really really scary."

Noel also set the record straight over the controversy surrounding his questioning of hip-hop act Jay-Z as a headliner for Glastonbury. He said: "For the record, I like Jay-Z so that's my opinion, everybody."

Speaking about the controversy, Noel said he'd been asked his opinion about ticket sales at Glastonbury but people had talked about him "blasting and slamming" which he said was "bulls***".
