    The real problem with our education system is that no matter what we try half the population still have below average intelligence!
    I want to see your evidence of that..

    Surely it’s a mathematical certainty that around half our population must below average and half above!

    Have you any evidence for the suggestion that Griffin is stupid?
    Every time he opens his mouth.

    A horrible man with some pretty nasty opinions. However, as he has a degree from Oxbridge that would suggest he is certainly of above average intelligence.

    You don’t have to be stupid to be a “bad” person.

    To consider extremists stupid because you don’t agree with them is a dangerous and foolish position. Dismiss them as stupid and they you underestimate them.

    Was Hitler or Stalin stupid?

    Whats with you Scottish folk, I know Salmond has taught you all to shout down opposition but the English are more civilized. Even those of us that have the burden of Scottish ancestory.

    This message was brought to you from the UK Generalisation Company Ltdyou’ll not get a rise, we generally understand the concept of patter up here! 😆

    In 1977, Griffin went to Downing College, Cambridge, where he studied history, then law.

    I didn’t know that. Somehow makes him even more worrying.

    I think that was his point, hence the ribbing..

    BTW the average no of legs is about 1.98.

    A truly embarassing OP.
    Unfortunately we still have 6 months of this to put up with.

    Open debate is the best way to expose people and their views for what they are. Oppressing them and not giving them a platform will just galvanise underground support.

    Rusty Spanner said » Cameron doesn’t want the country to stay together.
    You missed out the “in my opinion” bit at the end…
    Take it as read. 🙂

    Because his on record position is that he does want to union to continue.

    And politicians never lie, do they?

    Post Blair, he now knows he can get away with basically anything without being called to account.

    Legacy? Who cares?
    He’s protecting himself and his own.

    Scotland will never vote Tory – and he’s in a better position to implement even more ridiculous right wing nonsense without them.

    I’m English, btw. 🙂

    In other words – most people have more than the average number of legs.

    Isn’t statistics fun? 😀

    Top Bants OP.

    I was actually hoping thread would turn into a bit of a piss take of UKIP, but then captain serious ernie turned up and got all offended. Plus seems I’ve underestimated the amount of UKIP supporters or sympathisers on here!

    In the debate Clegg is a bit dim isn’t he?

    He has completely transformed Lib Dem to Lip Dim now … 😆

    God helps us if Clegg becomes PM – “make no mistake” (me think he wants to be President or something, very Obama 😆 )

    Not a hope, they’re going to get a right bashing come the next election. He’s pissed off his entire support base by being more Tory than Tory rather than Liberal.

    Didn’t watch the debate but it’s depressing that supposedly Farage ‘won’ despite being called out on obvious BS like claiming that 29 million Bulgarians and Romanians could come here.

    claiming that 29 million Bulgarians and Romanians could come here.

    If he said “could” rather than “would” then he’s telling the truth.

    Devil’s advocate mode.

    Why is that BS ? What’s to stop the entire population of Romania and Bulgaria moving to the UK 🙂

    It’s BS because there are not 29 million Bulgarians and Romanians living in Bulgaria and Romania, it’s more like 27-28 million.

    Hardly the BS of the year is it? Especially when you add on those that are living in other European countries.

    28.64 million according to Wiki. Rounds up to 29 million. 🙂

    Even though they chose the battleground as facts, they were both very loose when using them!

    Farrage did resort to the “I can speak louder and faster than you” trick though several times – normally a give away that some (slight or otherwise) BS is coming.

    The Beeb is probably right, both need publicity, both desperate to be a “deciding” player, both probably winners in that respect.

    (Only one wore the purple tie, the other was an imitation. Must gnaw at him, not being part of the hidden club)

    Successive tory governments have realised there are advantages to having large parts of the country that you can treat however you like without ever worrying about their votes.

    There’s devil’s advocate mode and there are stupid questions. That one is the latter.
