And Finally
Cameron claims to have delayed Take That reunion
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 2 March 2010
David Cameron has claimed that he delayed the first meeting of Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams for nearly fifteen years when he went backstage to speak to Gary Barlow, who lives in the politician’s Oxford constituency, at concert in aid of Children In Need last November. Of course, according to Robbie, by the point, the band had already been in the studio together in LA, but maybe no one actually spoke during that period.
Anyway, let’s not deny Cameron his moment in the sun. He told Heart 106.2: “I heard this commotion behind me and I didn’t turn around straight away – typical politician, I carried on yakking away – and then I turned around and it was Robbie Williams. I said: ‘Oh my God, I’m sorry. I don’t want to get in the way of this’. And he said something like: ‘I’ve been waiting fourteen years, another couple of minutes won’t make any difference’. I got out of the way and thought I had better get back to my seat quickly”.
