maybe true but he said it so confidently, as if he'd actually done the maths

I'm fighting a losing battle trying to convince my kids that all those "Which of the Seven Dwarfs are you?" or "Which character from Frozen would you be?" quizzes are complete bullshit. "But it's right, I am just like that!" FFS it's just a vaguely complimentary list of behaviours that most people would like to believe they have.

I see homeopathy etc. as an evolutionary tool, to weed out the credulous.

Though annoyingly the placebo effect is that powerful so occasionally it works.
Man is a moron none of this stuff would be any cheaper than conventional treatments. A lot of the stuff relies on building up a relationship with the
patient/victim so that is a lot of hours billed ,and, I doubt proper medicinal herbs are cheaper than generic pills.

If they plan to give out weed as a cure for anything count me in!

We only need one facepalm, then we can put it in a vial of water, whack it three times with a bat covered in horse hair...

You need one facepalm, then you put it in water and dilute it 1000 times.

I'm surprised that the fuckwit isn't arguing we should go back to using humours. Homeopathy is bad enough, being totally fictional bullshit. But astrology is much worse. It's so stupid it manages to parody itself.

I think if he is ill, say has a serious illness like a heart attack he should only be permitted to use the treatments he advocates. That should kill the idiot or teach him a very painful lesson.

[farmerbarleymow]

He did, but KGM tweeted what was probably the most gob-smacking aspect of Tredinnick's woeful inerview...



He really did.

MP in hypocrisy shocker.

I'm wondering when would be a good point to unleash Richard Dawkins on this thread?

I'm not sure Ed Miliband can be diluted any further.

Could be achieved by drowning them in the sea.
Though you'd need a hell of a large leather book to smack the earth on, for the potentisation.

Nah, I think it's his chakras that are all out of kilter. He urgently needs a coffee enema and some crystal therapy.

Substantially less batshit than the NI health minister though, who is a young earth creationist:

Don't worry he was unceremoniously removed from that position recently to be replaced by a Mr Jim Wells...who is also a young earth creationist with questionable views on homosexuals and abortion!

You have to do the thing with the bat first!
