If you bring a kid on a plane, and they are any bit of a nuisance...

...then you are impinging on everyone else's flight because you refused to take responsibility and put your kid in a padded box to go in the cargo hold. If they whine or even talk too loud once you are guilty.

Eight years ago Liam Gallagher was banned from Cathay Pacific airlines for, among other things, throwing things at people on board an airplane, and using offensive language. I think there is an angle to this story that the media is hiding from us, and that is that because we know Liam Gallagher does not attack unprovoked, this incident probably occurred due to his keen sense of vigilante justice, probably in retaliation for the nuisance created by someone's child (or children) aboard the flight and their refusal to own and contain that problem.

For letting the other passengers, who probably cheered him, have an enjoyable flight, he is now banned from that particular airline.

This is a man of the people.

Score one for Oasis.
