It was at a fan forum earlier this week that rumors began to be reunited of the indie veterans, with singer Morrissey at the forefront.

When a fan asked Marr directly on Twitter, the response, which puts Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage in focus, came quickly.

Johnny Marr already marked 2016 against Morrissey's position for Brexit and has said that the singer's political views are one of the reasons why a reunion of The Smiths is not very likely.
