Noel Gallagher: 'Not enough working class people' in the arts

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Former Oasis star Noel Gallagher says there are “not too many posh people - just not enough working class people" in the arts. The singer-songwriter was responding to the row between James Blunt and the Shadow Arts Minister Chris Bryant, about whether it was easier for performers from privileged backgrounds to become successful. "The working classes don't seem to have much of a voice or a presence in the charts or in the magazines of late," he said. This clip is originally from 5 live Drive on Monday 2 February 2015.
