She was on QT with Will Self when she wrote Londonistan, saying you couldn't trust Muslims because their loyalties lay elsewhere. She turned into a spluttering red faced mess when Will asked her what side she'd be on if Britain came into military conflict with Israel. Hope he wasn't a member of the Labour party. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJohnboy Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Was she once on record as saying she would move to Israel if Jeremy Corbyn's labour party ever got elected? That certainly wouldn't hinder labour's chances in any future election. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he wasn't a member of the Labour party.I’d imagine Will Self could make Melanie Phillips turn into a spluttering red faced mess by asking her to define any given word from any sentence in his novels. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do get annoyed by left and right "influencers" though, like Milo and Jones, thinking the way to win an argument is to talk rapidfire without breaking for breath or allowing interruption or space for another voice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh completely, Owen Jones is a prime example of that. However when the target of his ire is Andrew Neil it can be quite funny. Btw I actually thought Jones spoke quite a lot of sense on the hostile environment and Windrush- Portillo was floundering, the dinosaur that he is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s laughable that Neil gets to position himself as anything other than an enabler for the far right. “In Defence of the Wehrmacht” lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was his point, missed what he was saying before Neil broke into tears.? He wanted to point out that Neil is the Chairman of the Spectator which has published racist pseudo-science about the intelligence of black people and multiple articles defending Nazis and Greek fascists. Neil decided that this would not be allowed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Neil was properly rattled as well. Which is understandable given Jones was citing specific articles that he’s (at best)tacitly supported such as “There Needs to be More Islamophobia in the Conservative Party” and “In Defence of the Wehrmacht”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side note: I am pretty sure on reflection I was at a party with Fraser Nelson who was most put out by me playing LCD soundsystem at deafening volume. Well it was a floppy haired c**t who went to Dollar so could have been any number of shitstains. Surely you would never forget... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 They all sound like that though.These media folk are always insufferable. A friend of mine who was in RISE ended up at a couple of parties with Dr Bastano and he’s apparently worse than he is online. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 100% he'll go Sam Kriss in the near future. Both have cokehead vibes but Bastani’s much more about the party communism vibe. Kriss just wanted you to know that he’s read Adorno and Lacan, and you haven’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
