I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech, I will speak out.
I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.

Richard Bacon and James Delingpole
I have updated this piece with the original audio, listen to Richard Bacon in all his intellectual glory.
The part where Richard B challenges James to show where the Royal Society has failed in it's duty is surely best illustrated by looking at it's motto.
This is taken from the Royal Society website :- "The Royal Society's motto 'Nullius in verba' roughly translates as 'take nobody's word for it'. It is an expression of the determination of Fellows to withstand the domination of authority and to verify all statements by an appeal to facts determined by experiment."

Surely this is exactly what they are not doing.
