Not often I fully support something from The Sun, but the publication of David Mellor's latest rant is a cracker! :rofl:

At least it wasn't performed in a Chelsea shirt like a previous faux-pas! :rolleyes:

An old man who 22 years ago was involved in Politics, insults a cab driver.

a) This isn't news.

b) This still isn't news

c) Stick your hand up if you've never lost your temper in public?

d) Put your hand down if it's up, but you're lying to yourself.

e) And you LiverpoolPhil ;)

f) Yep, still isn't news.
 
Am I the only one that thinks the cabby is a bit of a git for secretly recording 'part' of the confrontation? You know, the bit where he was going to take the long (more expensive) way to the destination, but got pulled up for it.

Mellor did come across as a **** mind you.


Isn't newsworthy though.

That certainly isn't News.

And probably another example of techno-shift, like the dangers of Farcebook and Twit-er.

Sun Ex-Editor put it well describing the access to news and info as having been flattened and that Politicians have changed from feeding us their version of things to merely being one of thousands/millions expressing an opinion. The condescending 'I know best' style just doesn't work in the new environment!

Not another trumped up has been with the "don't you know who I am?" line. Not news but reiterates what a fool he still is

Let it go Homer.

It's many years now since he abandoned Fulham for the lure of the Bridge.

Mind you I would agree with your succinct appraisal of him.
