Coldplay have unveiled a politically motivated video for their new single ‘Violet Hill’.

The video, which is the second they have released for the song, shows edited clips major political figures, including George Bush and Tony Blair.

In the video, footage of President Bush shows him conducting a military orchestra and dancing with his wife, Laura.

Other politicians in the video include Boris Yeltsin and Saddam Hussein.

The name of demoratic candidate Barack Obama is also shown on a woman’s underwear.

'Violet Hill' is currently at number eight in the UK charts and attracted two million downloads when it was released last month as a free download on the bands website.
