*Andrew Neil*

Saw Andrew Neil's 'diatribe' last night, no surprises it's been a topic today.
Turned off programme though as I can not stand Kendal.
Can almost tolerate if Alan Johnson is on, not her though.
Andrew Neil used a rather unfortunate term, 'Islamist Scum' to describe attackers.
Now I understand they are appropriating the word 'Islamist' for the purposes of describing a 'terrorist' and even though Neil's speech was not intended as a direct assault on Islam we should remember that being an 'Islamist' in its pure sense means you believe in Islam.
Being 'Christian' means you believe in Christ, yet when some lunatic decides to commit murder with his god in mind we never use the word Christian in that way or with such loaded rhetoric.
Anyways the lowlife who carried out these attacks did not believe in Islam.
They drank alcohol, partied, took drugs.
Even ran a bar FFS.
Would have been good if Neil had decided, if he felt his speech was necessary, went some way to remind those others, and everyone else, of that.
