Interview with ME

[musky]

I was round a friend's the other day and they dragged out the festival programme from 1986. That year was my first Glasto, and her last - the festival had got too big for her, even back then.

The interview with ME did make me chuckle though, so I took a photo for anyone who might be interested.

Enjoy!

Thanks for that, was an interesting read.

Almost 30 years and things havent changed much. America still illegally invading countries, crap bands still headlining the main stage....

A £100k donation to charity in 1984 equates to £364k in todays money (using average earnings).

I feel like CND have almost lost the battle in this country. So many people think nuclear power is the answer to our energy needs, and that Trident is required. It's really very depressing. Ignorance is bliss I guess.

[Teddington]

CND don't help themselves by telling lies.

I had a (in fairness very good debate) with some guys from CND this year.

After I pointed it out though, they admitted that their material was factually incorrect. They didn't, however, remove or edit it. A group behind us who were listening to the debate with interests, shook their heads and walked off when they learned the truth.

Still, a very interesting debate and nice, if a little naive, guys from the CND stand.

details?

Another made up story from the forum dullard.

It was Greenpeace in that other thread.

[Ed209]

Oh God - please no.

[Teddington]

yeah. sorry. Its just that given Teddington's total lack in understanding of what socialism is, what communism is, what .. well... anything is, I genuinely struggle to believe that he is able to out debate a toddler, let alone out debate a grown adult and CND activist using facts and figures.

[Ed209]

lol

Oh dear. Just because other people agree with your point of view, doesn't make you right.

What's the point of me posting on here the debate that I had? Not very interesting for most. Suffice to say that if you could be arsed to dig out the information that they used at Glasto, and look up the actual information, then you would find errors in their material.

e.g. their information on Trident was incorrect.

[Teddington]

what source were you using for your information?

[Ed209]

Jesus, want me to wipe your arse for you as well?

You were the one suggesting my debating skills were non-existant- I'm sure a man of your intellect can identify the facts, compare them to the material the CND were displaying and draw your own conclusions.

Why would Jesus want you to wipe his arse?

Weird.

Back to topic. Why is your particular source for trident "the facts" and the CND's made up? I'm ready to believe you, if you're right, but you're not giving me anything here, Teddy boy

Just point me in the direction of this material.

[Teddington]

This is about the 5th or 6th time you've made up a scenario like this.

It's really odd behaviour.

[Ed209]

I already have.

Look at the material regarding Trident that the CND used on their stand at Glastonbury.

Look at a relevant source of the same material e.g. Janes fighting ships

Look at any relevant changes to government policy regarding the nuclear deterrent.

[Ommadawn]

Sorry Mike99, you've just been replaced as the board idiot by Teddington.

[russycarps]

Ah it's the resident forum liar.

We cannot believe anything that you post. Sorry.

[Teddington]

"We"? Who is "we"? The voices in your head?

Everyone is roaring with laughter at you. You nincompoop.

Quiet liar. Haven't you got more unsubstantiated bullshit to post somewhere?

[Teddington]

I think you're using up the board's quota at the moment, Ted.
