I'm sure his multi-millionaire lifestyle must be severely rubbish in leafy Kensington. Oh, the inconvenience of living in the heart of one of the biggest cities in the world in one of its most exclusive and expensive boroughs.
Surely all growth and development must stop because the rich say that they don't want the noise?
Common decency? Get with it Brian you fucking idiot - and you claim that the current Government is bolshy and ignoring the common man?

He's rich enough. Get a home in the country, then. I don't like noise either, so I choose not to live in a big city. It's called common sense.
Brian is increasingly turning into the cliché of an older-middle-aged guy who compensates his decrease in working hours by writing angry letters to the editor and complaining about kids playing in the street.

Well to be fair he has had almost all his neighbours building basements around his house for 7 years, and more planning permission being sort. He's moved once already to avoid it and is now moving again, so I can see his frustration, he needs to be in London for business/media and performing reasons so i'd say constant drilling all day for 7 years would piss anyone off

Yeah Togg, 7 years of it would try your patience a bit.

Why wait so long when he was fully kept in the picture about the developments and plans for on-going works?
He simply has to sell the property - which will generate him a tidy little profit - like any other rational person would do and bugger off to his estate in the country where, incidentally, the great hypocrite allows the culling of deer. I'm sure his pocket can stretch to the fuel cost for the journey between there and QPL...........
He's turned in to a sad old man that likes nothing better than to have his opinions plastered all over the media at any opportunity. All that gazing up in to the sky has made him dizzy.

no he doesn't. at all.
in the modern world there is NO need to live on the doorstep of your workplace.
he chooses to be there.
also, he's behaving like a prick. bet it was different when he was "renovating" "home improving" or building "home studios"....hypocrite

This has nothing at all to do with wealth/Kensington/London. Its about constant noise from neighbours that goes on for years. I suppose everyone thinking he is being a dick would be alright if your neighbour was blasting out music or something every day for the last 7 years? Thought not. Just because he could afford it shouldn't mean he has to move from his home.

I like Brian a lot, he and Queen are my favourite musicians ever. I do think he moans to much though and he's lost sight of how normal people live.
I admire his stance against the Tories, but it saddens me that it is only their attitudes towards animals that have made him this way. I don't recall him moaning about the way the Tories have ripped apart the lives of working class people in this country , the way Miners were treated, or the Poll Tax or the Tories attitude to the NHS, before all this badger stuff started. I guess they were ok if it meant Queen paid less tax.
I also think he & Roger have lost the plot with this Adam Lambert collaboration. Can you imagine Rick Waller fronting Led Zeppelin or Gareth Gates and Will Young joining up with Paul & Ringo to reform The Beatles ?

"he's lost sight of how normal people live."
But why should he live his life thinking about how 'normal' people live? He is living his life, not ours. If I won 50 million on the lottery tomorrow I am going to buy an Aston Martin, I might buy 5. I am not going to stop walking into the showroom just because a 'normal' person can't afford one or thinks I'm being a show off. That's just ridiculous. He has worked fucking hard for the life he has. Most of the guff he has come out with in the past 20 years has been shit though to be fair....

this has got nothing to do with a "neighbour blasting out music" - this ia about home improvements/developments.
i'm pretty sure these kind of developments required planning permission, and unless loads of people object then these things get approved.
best guess? there's only Dr May and "Our Ange" complaining - hence these things go ahead unopposed.

Because he just sounds churlish and ridiculous , that's why. There are many working class people who have worked a lot harder and have next to f*** all to show for it.
There's not much worse than a moaning elderly multi
millionaire.
Let's face it, it needs to be happy that he has a home full stop, there are plenty out there that have no home at all.

Possibly, or maybe his neighbours aren't there at all but living in Dubai sticking a few more million on their investment before selling it on to their mate.

"There are many working class people who have worked a lot harder"
But he isn't working class. We all work hard, I actually have worked since the age of 16, I am now 40 and I have FUCK ALL. But I don't have an amazing talent like him. You are jealous, you begrudge him his life. He is being restrained. I would torch the fucking place.
