TBH I don't think anyone on here should be criticising the stupidity coming out of the mouths of other people. :lol:

You mean because you're such a thundering moron that we don't need anyone else's stupidity to laugh at at?

Jim Murphy [again...clearly a winner on this thread]

"Jim Murphy is a proven winner" - John McTernan

The whole article is a goldmine of schadenfreude.

Bonus extract:

Can he win the 2016 election? Well, he won’t die wondering. What is for certain is that he is running to be First Minister and not to be the leader of the opposition. He will throw everything at it and in the process revolutionise the Scottish Labour Party. A new voice. New ideas. New ways of campaigning. New means of communication. It’s the prescription worldwide for renewal...

Jim loves Scotland – we’ll find out if it loves him back.

Willie Rennie (just now on Scotland Tonight): [the damage to the Forth Road bridge] was unexpected and unforeseen. We need to know what next is going to be unexpected and unforeseen.

Surely to god he didn't actually say that???

Verbatim. Luckily for him no one except me and a hamster in Ellon actually watch Scotland Tonight so his comic buffoonery will probably have gone largely unnoticed. It should be on the iPlayer - you'll catch his howler towards the end of his appearance (when he's asked to make a final response).

He looks like Stan Laurel. He's more stupid than Stan Laurel. His party is virtually as dead as Stan Laurel.

I just watched a clip from Real Time with Bill Maher where they were discussing the refugee/ISIS (apparently they're linked) debate.

A Canadian politician went on a fairly passionate speech about what it meant to Canada as a country to accept as many refugees as they had vowed to accept, and that refugees aren't the issue regarding terrorism. She explained that Canada is accepting several thousand Syrian refugees by the end of the year and she's proud of her country for doing that.

The right wing senator sitting next to her just said, "aye, but Canadians are just unarmed North Americans with healthcare."

A politician but not an elected politician. Nigel Dempster was a newspaper columnist and regular champion of the government of Margaret Thatcher, paedophile enabler.

Some of us of a certain vintage might remember the controversy surrounding Princess Michael of Kent's father, his war record, his penchant for nice straight arm salutes and rolling into countries with tanks.

That was a bit of a stushie, and that year - 1985 as I best recall - every royalist arselicker was rolled out to defend Princess Heinkel and, by association, her hubbie. Dempster excelled himself on GMTV (or its predecessor) one summer morning by explaining that the princess's old man wasn't really a nasty Nazi because he had been 'sent to the Russian Front to fight communist oppression'.

Indeed.
