I hadn't noticed that.
Apparently he gets all sorts turning up to his live shows and he used to worry that the pro-Brexit morons would get offended and leave when he called them cunts, but everyone laughs along at everything.

He's explicitly saying that the conservative party or even "hard right populists" are absolutely not white supremacists/fascists here.
Based on
* Boris was twice voted mayor of London (so what?)
* They care about Brexit (so what?)
* People voted for JRM and it "fans the flames of division" to suggest that they "voted for a nazi by mistake" (this is exactly the pearl-clutching I was talking about)
