What's he done that's so upsetting?

I quite enjoyed his programme last night, though I wish they'd allowed Tebbit to speak a bit more.

Maybe it's because I also went to The University of Kent.

I liked it, and last week.

I found it interesting enough, mostly to try to understand these types who you come across at sixth form and uni who are desperately latching on to every vaguely radical idea about. Standard teenage rebellion stuff but you didn't ever want to get talking to one of them. I could never be arsed myself since it didn't look like it would enhance my chances of scoring.
I was wondering however if this sort of energy and fire does push them to achieve in other ways, like him or not, he is doing pretty well these days.

I used to find the idea of a young man waving a radical newsaper in my direction strangely alluring

He did sort of illustrate how comatose society has become, top of the student union agenda was whether they could wear hats in college and a trip to Alton Towers.

The only people prepared to protest these days are posh folk who want the right to hunt fluffy animals.

Which is why we don't have to worry about any threat from the trade unions as they will have no popular support.

At Kent University there was always this guy who'd stand in front of the library with an armful of newspapers shouting "Socalist Worker" in a northern leftist "power to the people" way. But Kent University was full of middle class kids from the Surrey and the home counties who'd mostly look scared and a bit confused.

In the first few days we were given a talk by the SU leader who told us not to pay our poll tax and ended with shouting "an end to this Thatcher scum!" again to much bewilderment to all us 18 years olds more worried about being away from home and having to do our own laundry etc. than radical politics.
