[Brighton] Rod Liddle's opinion of Brighton

[Hamilton]

I didn't actually ask for your opinions of Rod Liddle, I asked whether you thought his description of Brighton was a valid one.However you all seem to prefer just to call him names and so we'll leave it at that.

In that case, he is wrong. He is just creating stereotypes and stirring hatred.

That said, there is a wonderful weird edge to our town. I hope it stays forever.

No its not full of perverts and weirdos.

Rod Liddle in the latest edition of The Spectator talks about Labour's chances of winning back the "red wall" seats. He says "it can't ever because in order to do so it would have to adopt policies which would estrange it from the areas it can do well: affluent university cities such as Oxford and Cambridge, affluent pretend-countryside places such as Chipping Norton, and various nests of weirdos and perverts such as Brighton."

A valid description of our fair city?

The West Upper on a Saturday match day is certainly a nest of weirdos and perverts, in fact perverted weirdos. Can’t speak for the rest of Brighton and Hove though.

Isn’t Rod Liddle a Millwall fan? Bless.

 

[Screaming J]

He is a complete tosser who's opinion means diddly-squat; and I discard him.

A City of Weirdos & Perverts.

I feel a banner coming on.

I don't think "Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk" will be much of a banner, to be honest.

 

[BN9 BHA]

Never heard of him.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I quite enjoy his articles

He was quite interesting 25 years ago, before he became a lazy, resentful alcoholic.

 

[Fromthesouth]

Wouldn't think there's any more weirdo's than any other city, but he is one grade a prick.

 

[jcdenton08]

He needs to get out a liddle.

Brighton is full of weirdos no? That's one of the things that makes it a dynamic, exciting and fun place.

And makes you live in Guiseley ?
I’m JOKING you sensitive souls resident in Brighton and Hove !

 

[redoubtable seagull]

Who gives a **** what that piece of shit thinks. He’s a ****.

Luckily I'm not resentful. Or, strictly speaking, middle-aged, any more

 

[albionalbino]

Rod Liddle is an odious little c

 

[Pevenseagull]

My opinion of Moron Wibble


he's a ****

 

[Nitram]

I’ll take that as as compliment from a communist turned Tory boy.

 

[Papak]

His Wiki entry makes interesting reading...

Edit - and no, that isn't one of his controversies!

 

[nicko31]

Was this the same Rod Liddle that said he'd would prefer to live in the North Korean capital of Pyongyang than in Brighton because of the city’s drugs and “liberal claptrap”?

Any friend of Fararge must be a right t**t

By the way Fararge is currently in the USA on a talking tour which as fears over Covid19 is a series of limited numbers ticket only events, apparently these tickets are free available on line with no restrictions where in the world you are booking from as such many are taking the opertunity to book them from the UK in the hope of Fararge on stage with an empty auditorium in front of him
