Meanwhile, Mick Jagger recently slammed Donald Trump over his stance on climate change, while accusing the President and Prime Minister Boris Johnson of “lying” to the public.
“In so many countries, including my own this last week… but particularly the US, it’s a bit of a sea change. It is not about manners,” he said.
“I don’t mean that manners are everything. But the combination of all these things, Jagger continued, adding that he’s worried “where all this polarisation and rudeness and lying [is going to lead us].”
Meanwhile, The Rolling Stones have been honoured by having a rock on Mars named after them by NASA.
