If you spent less time watching question time and more time shagging lasses you'd be a much happier person. You're far too young to care about this ****. Youth is wasted on the young.
I watched it and I did not hear anything wrong with what he said......... He has his views, like everyone else, and I can't see what the problem is with him. He says it as he see's it..........he is not influenced by the popular view.......which is refreshing and something which more people (on here?) ought to take note of. Free thinking
Re: I watched it and I did not hear anything wrong with what he said......... Free thinking? He's a holocaust denier isnt he?
Re: I watched it and I did not hear anything wrong with what he said......... I dont recall ever hearing him denying the Holocaust but he is rude, pompous and arrogant and at times crosses the line with his acid retorts to members of the panel and the audience however I do enjoy listening to him when he is on QT.
Re: I watched it and I did not hear anything wrong with what he said......... He's also a homosexual in the Tory Party. Surely that's an oxymoron?
Re: I watched it and I did not hear anything wrong with what he said......... Apologies, that's David Irving.
Re: I watched it and I did not hear anything wrong with what he said......... All for free thinking. Just disagree with his views completely. Doesn't mean he's not a lovely person, though.
Re: David Starkey........what did he say that was wrong ? The Quran is wrong when it says that homosexuals should be killed That it is better tio use your head than your heart when trying to get taxes through the 50p tax rate That no country likes to be liberated because they see it as an invasion..........e.g. France, Iraq
Re: David Starkey........what did he say that was wrong ? The French saw liberation from Nazi Occupation as an invasion? Aye, alreet.
Saw him at Hay Festival a couple of years ago and he was quality entertainment. It was just after Carol Ann Duffy had been made Poet Laureate - she'd spoken earlier that day and his opening gambit when he was supposed to be talking about King Henry VIII's early life was how he'd "read better greetings cards than the rubbish she churns out". He also tried to claim he was working class - just a "well-spoken version".
What UK politics And UK society in general needs are more David Starkeys, Denis Skinners, Peter Hitchens,Tony Benns and Frank Fields. At least one of those (Hitchens) talks complete and utter lunacism imho but they spark people into thinking and shake them out of this bland inane politics that has enveloped us where anything outside a nice safe slightly left of centre viewpoint is viewed with abject horror.
Re: What UK politics Completely agree. The book 'The abolition of Britain' by Hitchens is a well worth a read whatever your views.
How many times do you hear the French saying good things about the British......... ..............or Americans ???
