Guardian Bullshit: "You're either in the Gatwick camp or the Heathrow camp"
20-09-2007 11:37
Brendan O'Neill's dreadful article on the Guardian's "Comment is Free" site, In the other camp, ends with this conclusion:So, are you a green or are you a supporter of completely free migration? Because it seems to me at least that you cannot be both. You're either in the Gatwick camp or the Heathrow camp. Make your choice.

We will be calling for an end to this criminal war and strong action to slow, stop and reverse global warming ( http://www.nowarnowarming.org/ ).
