British musician Morrissey appeared on the NBC late-night talk show to perform and he took the stage wearing a far-right pin on his lapel.

The pin featured the logo of the anti-Islam For Britain political party. Morrissey, once the frontman of The Smiths, has openly supported the party since 2018.


Shame on Morrissey for courting racism @ForBritainChair... Fallon dont give a platform to hate, please," said a user.

"Morrissey supports a far right party full of racists and nazis," a user commented.

"Morrissey has committed career suicide. You cant be the voice of the loner & sensitive outsider & support a far right racist micro-party such as For Britain. He has destroyed his raison d'etre & needs to understand that what he stands for is unacceptable," said some one else.

'Fallon loves having his right-wing mates on doesn't he? Morrissey will be performing in a Screwdriver tshirt next," wrote another.

Some others also brought up Fallon's interview with Donald Trump in 2016, during which he touched the then-GOP presidential candidate's hair.

"Surprised jimmy fallon didn't tousle this mf's hair," said a user.


Think Jimmy really is far right?

I didn't know this about Morrissey. That's a definite yikes. Fallon shouldn't have allowed him to get on TV on his show while wearing that. SNL would definitely ban someone for a stunt like that.

Jimmy gave him a platform to show his pin. Stuff like this needs to be censored. They need to blur out the pin.

Jimmy needs to control his guests. When on his show they have no right to freedom of speech and must comply with whatever the collective has decided.

Who cares if he supports a party that wants an ethnostate and is supported by nazis and holocaust deniers, and is too extreme for ukip

I'm going to guess Fallon wasn't exactly told that the guy was going to be wearing the pin, nor did he probably know what it meant.


And what if he did?
