Yet another nasty ad hominem and yet another flounce. Oh how we both wish you'd voted remain!


A brilliant response to Sanctuary's whole post Nigel. I must admit to my education falling short on the Latin front so looked up ad hominem ....

Ad hominem: Latin for "to the man" or "to the person", short for argumentum ad hominem, is a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby genuine discussion of the topic at hand is avoided by instead attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself. Listed as second from bottom (next to name calling) in the hierarchy of argument strategies.
