The left attacking a target and finding out it’s counter productive is happening here in the UK too. The Bradford Brewery tweeks George Galloway who reacts the only way he knows, with threats, and suddenly rather than the biz cowering down and subjecting themselves to the will of Allah, sorry George, the biz gets loads of free press coverage and loads more customers.

That has the best tweet ever. Well played @mountainofyah.

SbML,
Thanks for that, I chortled quite extensively:
We are planning to bring out a Galloway (brew, I suppose) soon. I don’t want to say too much as it is top secret right now, but all I can say is it is weak, bitter and has a frothy head.

“@BradfordBrewery well then, I shall return to this matter after the election. You have been most unwise”
What’s Galloway planning on doing to this brewery? Will the “local community” suddenly take offence at its existence in a fit of outrage which will have nothing, absolutely nothing to do with Galloway?
“You have been most unwise”. Trying to sound like a Bond villain. Twat.
Surreptitious Evil
Well, if I twatted, I would twat Galloway and the Head of Bradford’s Licensing Board exclaiming surprise that Gorgeous George considers Licensing now to be the responsibility of one of the local MPs.

Tim Blair is a treasure.
I don’t know what it is about Australians, but so many of them have a facility for hilarious insults and sarcastic wit that it almost makes me wish their spider-infested, kangaroo-blighted, dingo-ridden, Harold-Bishop-eaten hellhole of a country wasn’t so damned far away.
Give the man a knighthood, ship him back to the motherland, and make him our new Minister for the Internet.
Mr Ecks
“You have been most unwise”. Trying to sound like a Bond villain. Twat.”
Sounds more like the Voice of The Mysterons to me.
We know that you can hear us Earthmen. We will bring disaster to your brewery.
The only problem would be Captain Black. Captain Rainbow?

Mr Ecks – The only problem would be Captain Black
You daft racist. Captain Black is fine. It’s Colonel White who’s problematic.
Standing there, which is an ableist microagression against quadriplegics, smugly controlling everything with his Gaia-raping machines without so much as checking his privilege or apologising to transqueer womyn of colour for existing.
Tim, you really must – and with all speed – install a ‘like’ button. A ‘bollocks’ button if you must, but certainly a ‘like’ button.

I watched that for ages waiting to blow up, but he didn’t.
Surely Destiny was a dyke?

Yes, there is something awfully attractive about the Strain sense of humour.
You’re not so bad yourself though, mate. Seriously, you should consider setting up your own blog. I’d follow it in a New York minute.

Just look at the bum-chinned melanin-deficient heteropatriarchal cis-bastard.

And would it kill them to include diversity among the Captain Scarlet crew? Here’s George Galloway’s suggestion for what the ideal Spectrum recruit should look like.
