Armageddon...
OK. A change of topic. Look! A brave young woman who could actually be arsed to turn up to an important debate to make a case and listen to others. I feel as if I - and many of my generation - have handed on a baton. Take it, Mhairi - hold it tight and run with it.

The SNP again puts the sub-Blairites to shame.

Brave? In what sense is she brave? Were they heaving rocks at her. I must have missed that. Self-regarding, self-important, in a word SCOTTISH.

I agree with you on the "brave" part John, but the rest ... well, let's just say I was tempted to string a couple of adjectives together and end the phrase, "in a word, John Whitworth".

I don't follow you, Matt. Too clever for me. In what sense am I like this ratbag? I think you are breaking one of the Sphere's rules for an ad hominem attack. I think you should apologize grovellingly. At once.

Impressive that in your democracy you debate such things. We’re spending something upwards of $350 billion to modernize our nuclear ‘triad’. If there’s been serious dissent in Congress, I’ve missed it.

John is a grand poet, but his political opinions are always those of a moss-covered megalith. Ignore him.
