General Anaesthetic Taking the edge off.

What a twat

[Harman] told a cheering conference hall in Brighton: “Surely it can’t be too difficult for the terminator to terminate PunterNet. If he doesn’t I’ve got a message for Arnie – I’ll be back!”

Really, what a twat.

1. I’ve never heard of PunterNet, until now. I bet the owners are glad of all the extra traffic Harman has now sent their way.
2. The deputy leader of the governing party, she is in a real position to do something substantive about prostitution, and she wastes it on this shit, turning it into a glib [attempt at a] joke.
3. “I’ll be back.”? Really? No-one is laughing.
4. While the domain is registered to an address in California, it seems to be an entirely British affair (88% of visitors coming from Britain or Ireland). Even the name suggests that, Yanks don’t use ‘punter’.
