Question
Hi there

I heard that Kate Bush was a Conservative Party/Thatcher supporter in the 1980s.  Is this true, and do you know anything of her political viewpoints?

Thanks!

Rob

Hello Rob,

First of all my apologies for the lateness of my answer. I've been on vacation last week and hadn't foreseen I couldn't read my e-mail there.

Anyway, Kate has never been very open about her political views, so it isn't really known what her viewpoints are. The few things she has said about politics can be found here:

I hope this answers your question.

Kind regards,

Birgitte
