Brian May Song Calls For 'Colourblind' Voting

Queen guitarist Brian May has started a campaign to get people to vote 'colourblind' at the General Election to end the 'corrupt' and 'broken' political system in Britain.

The rock star, famous for protesting against the badger cull and fox hunting, has launched a 'Common Decency' Campaign and is urging people to make the most "15 hours of democracy" on 7 May.

He has also released a song called One Voice which is a re-working of a song that he hopes will inspire people to vote and vote "for the people, not the party" that will be "true to their conscience and not party whipped".

Through his campaign he will be helping candidates who he thinks are "decent people" with time, money and publicity and urging voters to back them.

He is the latest celebrity to speak out about the state of politics in the UK.

Russell Brand has called for a "peaceful revolution" and Michael Sheen made headlines on St David's Day with an impassioned speech about the state of the NHS.

When asked why this election is bringing celebrities into politics in this way, May said: "I think this is a very crucial election.

"I think it’s different to anyone that’s been before because for the first time the internet is all-powerful.

"It’s much harder for politicians to get away with the deceits that they used to get away with."
