53 years ago today, I released my first solo album, Wind of Change. I had just stepped out on my own after Humble Pie, with no idea where it would lead. Looking back, it was the beginning of a journey I’m forever grateful for. Thanks for being a part of it.

Lying liars and the lies that they told.
There is no question that the leave campaign lied through its teeth.
Legally, that means nothing now, of course: Brexit is settled under European law.
But is there a moral case to say the British electorate were innocent? Let's look at the lies
