Murray didn't win the Davis Cup. He played a massive part but within a team. Outside of that he had four shots at grandslam events and failed. Fury had one shot at beating the universally recognised champ of 11 years. No contest.

Did you all see who "Newsnight" predictably wheeled out last night to offer an opinion of the Tyson Fury selective outrage non-story.

And fair play to them they all kept a straight face.

dukeofpuke earlier makes an interesting wider point about liberalism and its possible consequences.

The irony of the liberals is that their tolerance of all lifestyles has led us to the spread of THE most intolerant belief system (Islam) that bizarrely opposes gays and feminism.

You couldn't make it up!

As for Fury, just for making the BBC lay bare their hideous 'LBGT Forever!' narrative, he gets my vote.

I'm not a religious person so perhaps someone can enlighten me but my understanding is that the bible isn't keen on sausage jockeys. I think that's a load of old rubbish myself. As long as it isn't made compulsory I'm quite happy for them to do as they please. I don't know of it saying in the bible that being black is a sin. Which kind of makes sense seeing as Jesus himself was probably darkish. So his point is what? Now if Fury, like some of our Muslim chums, was advocating chucking them off mountains then there would definitely be a point to be addressed. As far as I know he hasn't. Some gay people truly don't appear to appreciate how blessed they are to live in a tolerant time in a tolerant country. They should extend that courtesy to those who disapprove of them as long as they stay within the law.

I wouldn't say ALL boxers have courage ebul.

Ordinary Audrey Harrison reminded me of the lion out of the wizard of oz.


I would dispute that dusty. I don't accept he was a coward
He cut an impressive figure but I don't think he was as good as people thought he was.

His defeat against Hay did look abysmal. But I don't Audley heart was ever really in it myself, although the money tempted him.
Perhaps he was just not hungry enough for it

Yes RogerTheButler....Fury has to expect criticism from those that don't agree with him...that is also FREE SPEECH.
I only objected to people who wanted him exclude from SPOTY because of his views, that was all.

Yes my views do somewhat accord with his. Although the way I see it, I just prefer the values of the past.
All open to argument of course.

I don't actually throw gays off mountains or high buildings myself

Although looking at some of my homophobic posts from the past, I can see why people might think thatBlush

It is was only the word marriage I object to. Marriage  will always be between a man and a women for me, there is no other definition.

If gays claim discrimination, that would like me saying I love my cat, so if I cannot marry him, me and my cat are discriminated

You just did.

Turn the above argument on its head

"All these 'hang 'em and flog 'em right wingers. I bet they'd love a Sharia Society where women are seen and not heard and gays are chucked off tall buildings"

For the record, my belief is in toleration and education. Let's hear the Nazi sympathiser, find out what makes him tick. I really am all ears as to how a white guy is cooler than a black, because I just don't get it and I'm pretty confident my ideas will trump his ideas and that's how society progresses - the best ideas triumphing over the worst in the court of public opinion.

Instead you get a gang of people shouting him (and it's generally a 'him') down. He throws a few 'Seig Heils' and stomps off muttering about 'lack of freedom of speech' and gets to look waaaaay more important than he really is.

...and so the world keeps turning

Women wish to control men chaser, and in our society they are succeeding.

It is not that women are not equal, they are not the same, does anyone not see the difference anymore.

I still think most women are better off in their in their traditional role of wife and mother, they have evolved for it.

Although I have no objection to a women doing a mans job providing she works on exactly the same terms, no extras.

I note Germany encourage women to stay in their traditional role , also they have civil union but no gay marriage.

The Germans tend to be a sensible society, except sometimes in matters of war or dealing with diesel exhaust emissions.

It'll come to nothing.

The intolerant left will go 'Booo. Naughty Tyson Fury! Anymore of that and we'll get the Police - who we normally refer to as 'agents of state repression' - onto you'

The intolerant right will go 'Freedom of speech!! Freedom of speech!! You may have the intellect of a Paramecium but you're sincere and that's what counts'

The taxpayer will get shafted, Plod will have their time wasted and Fury will get an even bigger persona (it's money in the bank for when boxing no longer pays the bills).

That's a low blow Roger.

The 'right wingers' as you call them are largely in favour of a Judeao/Christian society that stays loyal to a culture light years away from the Sharia Law of Pakistan, Iran, Saudi and parts of this country.

It was the liberals who took us to Iraq, Afghan, Libya and now Syria. The National Front, UKIP and BNP opposed the madness of Iraq.

I would humbly suggest the carnage that is today's Middle East would have been largely avoided if the 'right wingers' as you call them had been listened to.

Their age of consent is 14, Berlin is one of the most gay-friendly cities in the World and there are many more gay politicians 'out' in Germany than there in other countries in the world.
