More Farage wisdom

Even worse. TBH, I couldn't wade through all his tedious, irrelevant, claptrap to identify every egregious misunderstanding/error he made.
It's my fault for engaging with plankton.

You obviously do though, so that you can support your own personal superiority complex.

However, you get a point for managing to get egregious into a post and I think you may actually understand what it means.

You did go to a poly, though, didn't you?

Does it really matter that much to you? How sad.

You're a bog standard cretin.

HTH, BIDI

Woo hoo! I got to the cretin word. I wondered how long it would take him.

It doesn't matter to me - I just like to know my judgement is correct.
Which it is.

Time and again on fora you see the same sad failures resorting to pointing out grammatical errors when they can't truly defend their positions. This, with name calling is your normal fall-back position when you realise that your arguments have failed.

You purport to be a statistical genius and then you take a ridiculous position and try to back it up with a ridiculously simplistic analysis that would make a kindergarten maths teacher blush.

You believe that immigrants have made a net contribution because they are in the majority and London is so successful. A fallacious assertion because you have based your conclusion on limited evidence. I then show you that you cannot take that position because if other factors, that you haven't considered, are taken in to account, then London could still be successful even with a large number of immigrants making an overall negative contribution.

You're obviously some Walter Mitty character that sits in his bedsit watching University Challenge and making believe he knew the answer when it is given. In reality, you are a sad man building fantasies of academic success and trying to convince the world that he is clever.

I have you filed under "sad pratt, best ignore."

However, after a little mockery, you have really pulled your socks up with regard to your English. It shows what you can achieve when you apply yourself. Well done and keep it up!

Woo hoo! I got to the cretin word..

It's nothing to be proud of.
I don't call everyone a cretin, only those who have proved it.

Unfortunately for you, you will never know for sure as I will never tell you.

Me, I'm secure in my background and what I have achieved and don't have to look down on others to support fantasies of academic success.

Now if only he could do the same with his numeracy.
I reckon his school reports probably repeated the same optimistic, but unrealistic, refrain: "Could do better"

Thank you but it must have been subconscious as I really don't give a toss what he thinks.

Edit: Or I could have had an off day.

I do know for sure - like I said ex poly, at best.
Guess how I can be so sure?

You may have "fantasies of academic success", I don't.
