Grumpy old git
Read the Prescott dossier. It's damming and the BBC did nothing about it. The Beeb did this to themselves

Unfortunate? They have form on doing this and were rebuked by Ofcom last year in a similar case. There's something very wrong in the newsroom

So the implication is that tax and citizenship are one and the same. Therefore, the feckless and workshy of Britain should be stripped of their passports. Is that how it works?

This is grim. No wonder Germany is in trouble. The youth of today are a menace and we should get rid of them

Can't they all live in the tunnels?

That's right. We're all to stupid to understand. I don't think that PR strategy is going to work

I don’t think drawing a picture of a prophet is extreme nor, under any circumstances, should it get you killed

There’s a difference between peaceful dissent and acts of violence. Remember this lot attacked two policemen with sledgehammers

Oh but it is terrorism. It’s a public act to terrorise others to accept their views. And they’re stupid if they thought prison was the likely outcome. You break into a military base anywhere in the world and you risk being shot

I agree with that but the tricky bit is stopping Iran nuking everyone else. Let's leave it to the grown ups rather than posting facile one-liners

On the other hand, nobody under the age of 30 has a valid opinion on anything and should be ignored

It’s quite simple. The wide Windsor is for sports teams and fast food joint managers. The slim Jim is for academics, aristocrats and cads

Judging by the pic I reckon they could take that easily
