Liam Gallagher has vented his frustration after his brother Noel reportedly refused to give permission for him to use Oasis tracks in his new film As It Was.

Liam appeared on the red carpet for the premiere of the film at London’s Alexandra Palace, where he claimed that Noel and “his little people” removed the Oasis songs from the film.

“Him and his little people saw it and took the Oasis music out of it because that's all he's got left, d'ya know what I mean,” he told Sky News. “Let him get on with it.

“It doesn't make me sad, it makes me f****** mad,” he continued. “I'm not a p****, I'm not sad about it, I want to break his f****** jaw and his daft f****** manager, but that's what happens. I'm not sad about it, I didn't go home and cry, I just wanted to go and f****** put their windows through.”

However, Liam also said that he had always wanted to reform the band, and that his “bags are packed” should a reunion ever take place.

His comment about echo those made in an interview with The Independent in 2017, where he admitted he “missed” being in a band with his brother.

Speaking about As It Was, Liam said the film was “more of a documentary than a film, it's not f****** Star Wars, although it's got a few stars at war in it”.
