Jezza Corbo, the man who would be PM, is currently at a joint presser with UB40
UB40 are endorsing him you see. You know UB40 from 1983.
Except of course, it isn't UB40 from 1983, it's modern UB40 - or at least one half of them. The lead singer/songwriter Ali Campbell left with two others and he also formed a band called UB40.
So Jezza is holding a press conference with one of the UB40s.
Ali Campbell (I absolutely s**t you not) said about the remnants of UB40: "I’ve sat back and watched the other boys – the ‘dark side’ as I call them – destroying the legacy of my band, playing smaller and smaller venues."
