Mike Fabricant - Undated & Unconfirmed
The Conservative MP for Lichfield Michael Fabricant was quoted in The Guardian quoted on Friday 9th October 2009
"Mickey was not only briefly a DJ in the Brighton and Hove area (Radio Brighton - Ed) but also worked as a platter-spinner on the pirate station Radio Caroline. He did a two-week stint, just an hour a day, and he said it was extremely boring. For the other 23 hours there was nothing to do except sleep and revise for his A-levels. He said it was as unlike the film The Boat That Rocked as it is possible to imagine"
