And finally… You Can’t Always Get What You Want

The Rolling Stones have threatened legal action against Donald Trump after he used their songs at his campaign rallies.

The band said it is working with music rights organisation BMI to stop Trump’s use of their songs as part of his re-election campaign.

They said: “The BMI have notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the unauthorised use of their songs will constitute a breach of its licensing agreement. If Donald Trump disregards the exclusion and persists, then he would face a lawsuit for breaking the embargo and playing music that has not been licensed.”

In 2016 they tweeted: “The Rolling Stones do not endorse Donald Trump.”
