After issuing my video debate challenge to controversial blogger Stuart "Stew" Campbell, I said this:
"Please do let me know your thrilling excuses for ducking / ignoring this debate challenge at your earliest convenience."
It turns out I didn't have long to wait.
Crazy obsessed man makes up a whole string of flat-out lies, then demands I “debate” him over them in order to drive traffic to his website with 122 articles about how I’m basically Hitler on it (while blocking all replies) 🙄 pic.twitter.com/a4SbyJsorY

Yup, my bingo card is more or less full already. "Crazy", "obsessed" (thanks for the "man"!), "flat-out lies" (yeah, what are those flat-out lies specifically, Stew?), "drive traffic", "122 articles", "basically Hitler", etc, etc. Disappointed we didn't get a "deranged" or a "demented" or a "lunatic", but we can't have everything.
Not to worry, Stew, I'll use the extra time for Christmas shopping instead. But let no-one say I didn't make the offer or that I wasn't serious about seeing it through. And it's had the highly useful effect of forcing you to tacitly admit to your readers that you are not in fact a Charlie Kirk type, and that you do not in fact believe in open debate with your political opponents - something that I suspect you would have much preferred not to concede, however indirectly. We'll just have to call you Rev "No Debate" Stew from now on.
The offer, needless to say, remains open. If you ever change your mind and locate a spine, you know where to find me.
And hey, Stoo, make mine a double. #BothVotesSNP
Godwins Law invoked.
ReplyDeleteBy involving Godwin's Law, I trust you do not mean Estralita Godwin from Castle Douglas who starred alongside Jason Statham and Jakey Rolling as a gangster's moll in Piggler's Way on Channel 5 last April. I hope that because before becoming a TV star Dr Godwin completed a PhD on 'Laws Of Randomly Diverted Ions' at Heriot Watt University.
DeleteIndeed, no. Dr Estralita Godwin is known and lauded by all who know and laud her. Her admirers may, however, be distraught that Dr Perrit as omitted to mention Dr Godwin's work with the upper echelons of the Alba Party in the field of empathy downloading. I venture to suggest that it reaped magnificent results, leading to the notable electoral successes of said party.
DeleteSo, instead of poor wee Stewie being a master-bater, he has now become a fleeing-fanny?
ReplyDeleteWho could have guessed, eh?
From the National: "Far-right activity in Scotland growing 'month on month', says expert"
ReplyDeletehttps://archive.is/sbHWC
and in a moment of total unawareness the expert said this:
"... so politicians or the leaders of particular organisations that are mobilizing along issues that might be attractive to people on the far-right, ... Issues, particularly around migration, but also other forms of exclusion like transphobia."
That sort of thing is part of the problem, not an impartial study. It's as extreme as the far right itself. And it's why the likes of UK Reform is growing in popularity; the total polarisation of "issues" that most people didn't really care about either way, but have been increasingly forced to take sides on. People can't escape "far right", "Farage", "UK Reform".
Scots are experts at seeing right through the media's bullshit experts
DeleteI think you're probably right. The definition of expert:
Deleteexpert (n): someone who agrees with my own opinions
I see the fascist racist Reform trash are continuing to make headlines -
ReplyDelete"The former leader of Reform UK in Wales has been sentenced to 10-and-a-half years in prison after admitting taking bribes for pro-Russia interviews and speeches.
Nathan Gill, 52, from Llangefni, Anglesey, is thought to have received up to £40,000 to help pro-Russian politicians in Ukraine"
Anyone who supports that collection of detritus, is no better that they are and smells just as bad.
Ahhh, Reform.
ReplyDeleteThe party of racist fascist halfwits who think they are nothing but true patriots.
Shame about the racist fascist halfwit bit, though!
