GMB presenter Adil, who hails from Birmingham like the band, is friends with some of its members and read out a statement from Brian Travers – a saxophonist in UB40’s original lineup.
He said: “Ali was my best mate, we went to art school together, he was the best man at my wedding, I haven’t seen him in 10 years, he moved out of Birmingham. It beats me why we’re not together.”
But Ali dismissed any plans for a reconciliation, when he was asked if the group could potentially resolve their issues.
He said: “I was kind of betrayed by them and I left citing problems with management. All that management has been struck off so I stand vindicated.
