Kasabian star: 'I want to burn the Tories'

Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan has declared that he would like to set fire to every member of the Conservative Party.

The 29-year-old made his opinions plain on the upcoming general election when asked by NME whether Kasabian would ever consider lending their music to a party's election campaign.

Meighan dismissed the idea out of hand, reserving particular ire for David Cameron's Tories.

"They're f**king horrible! I'd set fire to them!" he fumed. "I mean, they're just horrible, aren't they?! I would actually set fire to them. Every single one of them, one by one!"
