He signed a letter of apology for the boy because of these truant five days education for the journey. “For once. Make the not with their children, “warned a well DOMICILED McCartney the audience and signed also equal to the Sgt Pepper uniforms of the Japanese.

Even political statements he did not hesitate. In commemoration of the victims of the attack in Orlando McCartney came before the encores with the rainbow flag of the gay and lesbian movement on stage. “We stand together with Orlando,” he said in German to the applause of the audience. And in the middle of Proposed referendum on United Kingdom membership of the European Union Debate Football Championship he swung briefly a Germany flag, during one of his musicians beside upheld the British “Union Jack”.
