Read that in Private Eye too. They've got some serious beef with the head of HMRC too. Sounds like a right cnut.

private eye is quite good at pointing out tax evaders. Vodafone is one of the worst.

God bless America, purveyors of common sense since 1776...

What's so outrageous? Perhaps he's generalising a bit much, but it's a magazine interview not a thesis. And who gives a toss what Rosie Boycott thinks anyway?

What? a fucking gay man making sweeping generalizations about how women don't like sex because they don't hang around in parks trying to pickup?

What the fuck is NOT outrageous about that?

What the fuck is NOT outrageous about that?

most of it.

oh, sorry, I'd momentarily forgotten the 'closet' misogyny that's so deeply ingrained in this place

My bad.

this cunt has been released from jail ... and although he has the right to free speech, he is now attacking the poppy.

So do what I did, I bought some booze icense, some bacon for a nice sarnie and a poppy from the off license.

EDIT: Sorry for The Sun Link ... I personally hate the paper.

"I'm more interested in his feeling that straight men are somehow to be pitied. That's quite a radical standpoint."

Pity sex is still sex.

oh, sorry, I'd momentarily forgotten the 'closet' misogyny that's so deeply ingrained in this place

Why do so many people here trot out this utter crap so often?

they think it get's them laid

Why do so many people here trot out this utter crap so often?

because its true?

I'd say it was more casual misogyny than closet misogyny.

Why do so many people here trot out this utter crap so often?

Because of sexist idiots like yourself who keep posting sexist nonsense?

Re. Stephen Fry he has said it was a re-hash of an already misquoted humorous interview he did with Attitude magazine and he is pretty fucked off with the Observer.

^ Faith restored.

Rosie Boycott's pretty well rounded if you ask me and was a good choice for a reaction. The Twitter chat on this is pretty amusing... I'm glad it was over-blown/out of context.

Poppy bashing aside it seems to me he occasionally makes a lot of sense

*"The troops are carrying out illegal murders abroad. Houses are being destroyed, mosques are being destroyed. Muslims are being murdered and tortured by the forces. *

• "I would advise everyone to look to their conscience and see if supporting the occupation of an independent state which involves killing, bombing and entering people's houses is something they can sit with in their hearts. *
  
• "Here the issue is should we support people regardless - but the fact is this is an illegal war and it involves the killing of innocent people." *
