“It has brought the worst out in people, and we weren’t ever in this together”, Morrissey continued. “We are deprived of seeing and hearing other people, and above all, you want to be with others who see and hear what you see and hear, because this is basic oxygen for the human soul. Take it away and people are dead”.
