I've always assumed, (perhaps wrongly), from the nature of your postings here that you didn't know who your dad was (except that he passed 'stupidity' on to you).
Clippo is online now

This is the progression from banter to insults.
Let's hold our heads high and refrain from sinking to such lows, please.

I assume you would not be so rude as to say that if I was standing in front of you

And if Clippo really is representative of those who believe climate change is threatening our very exisistance then I think Geoffrey Howes cricketing metaphor used against Mrs Thatcher is the best one because those who talk in similar fashion do their cause no good.


'It is rather like sending your opening bats to the crease only to find moments before the first ball is bowled their bats have been broken by the team captain.
Classic !

Thank you, I enjoyed using Geoffrey Howe's line much more than I enjoyed hearing it used against Mrs Thatcher.
