No idea what either part of the highlighted sentence means but given I'm no longer 12 that may well be it....

Geraghty called it as he saw it, is a genuine open jock yet you slag him off (but wouldn't dare do it beforehand). Maybe you would prefer all jockeys were like Michael Stoute or if they speak it is only to give the winner?

I know this is hard for you to understand and separate the 2 given your limited intellect but I was talking about his Cheltenham form. Try to read what is written in future.

this is very funny

Why can't you play the ball and not the man? It was grasshopper started about the past of HF so go and direct your yawn elsewhere.

What GREAT form has HF at Cheltenham? Peddlers Cross? Rock on Ruby? Countryside Flame? Hurricane Fly - legend!

Whilst I agree with your sentiment about Faugheen and having horses to take him on with (and I believe he is hugely underpriced for doing very little), Hurricane Fly may have been a great horse in Ireland but his Champion Hurdle form is in the league of Punjabi, Brave Inca and Sublimity.

Duodena's price is up there with Sweet Wake. You need to be a mug to back this at even 5/2.

Clive, I was in London today and picked up a copy of the New Statesman for the journey back to Paris, hoping it had improved (used to be a decent read). I think with your views on this thread you should read Peter Wilby's column - I found it hard to stomach and ended up putting the magazine...

Spot on, GH. The West, including its citizens, should stop preaching about Russia and the supposed moral superiority it has over Putin, when it is anything but true.

This is absolutely spot on and until people in power admit this or at least start a meaningful debate, we will go down a funny road.

Linking this to the non protest against ISIS is missing the point imo. The point here is that you have a material amount of people from one sector of society who don't share the same values and beliefs (non religious) as other parts of society, and rather than accept and share in the...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/11398967/Huge-crowd-of-Muslim-protesters-picket-Downing-Street-to-protest-at-Charlie-Hebdo-cartoons.html We're all the same, apparently.

Clive, one supposed sign of intelligence is the ability to listen, or read. You seem incapable of reading to the extent it is worrying. I said a small part. Your final sentence makes it seem (since you quoted my post) that I seemed to blame the actions of ISIS, AQ etc on the West when I did no...

There is a big difference between saying that part of the reason ISIS exist is due to the West's involvement in various foreign lands and saying that it excuses ISIS behaviour. if you both are too simple to see this...

Could someone please summarise this for me, I've had a long day..

Where is the Seamus Milne link? That wouldn't constitute the left - the rest of us could link 100+ articles showing the left think nothing of the sort to which you allege. Hence, wouldn't you say there is no such thought on the left, just 1/2 isolated crazies?

Clive, why no examples of the Left being apologists for ISIS?

Clive, where are all of these example??!!

Clive, you sometimes make a decent point but your problem is you always try to frame them around things you have a complex about (the left, the Guardian, and so on). They can stand on their own without these references. The NUS are a laugh and a joke after the student protests - never was...
