Comedian Limmy tweeted: I dont understand why David Bowie wants Scotland to stay under the control of a Tory government it didnae vote for, I just dont get it, later adding: Scotlands interests are best served by the people who live here, like any nation. Its obvious, its straightforward, its sensible. His fellow comedian Frankie Boyle took a more satirical approach, tweeting: I completely respect Bowies right to express views on Independence, just as Id respect Iggy Pops opinions on the CERN particle accelerator. Two giants of Scottish theatre writing also weighed in, with noted pro-independence writer Alan Bissett, author of stage plays such asThe Moira Monologues and novels including Pack Men, tweeting: Nats dont like Bowie expressing an opinion! But Scotland, stay with us isnt an opinion its an instruction. Weve had enough of those. Speaking exclusively to The Skinny today, Bissett adds: I love Bowie as much as the next person, but what he knows about Scottish politics could probably fill the Laughing Gnomes thimble.
