'We are in a very difficult situation at the moment, especially in the U.S.'
Mick Jagger attends 'The Burnt Orange Heresy' photocall during the 76th Venice Film Festival at Sala Grande on September 7, 2019 in Venice, Italy.
Jagger blasted Trump for pulling out of the Paris Agreement. “We are in a very difficult situation at the moment, especially in the U.S., where all the environmental controls that were put in place — that were just about adequate — have been rolled back by the current administration so much that they are being wiped out,” he said.
“It's the same in Brazil and they will be torn apart in England,” said Sutherland of administrations under Jair Bolsonaro and Boris Johnson. On another subject, acting versus touring, Jagger said that although they’re both ways of performing, there are big differences. “One, if you make a mistake on the stage, if you fall over, you don’t get a retake. If you fall over in the film, it’s fine," he joked.
Jagger added, “We are going through a very strange time at the minute. And when you live at a strange time you know it’s a strange time but you don’t know what’s going to happen. Values are different.There’s more polarization and less civility.”
