maybe he was having a bad day...

"My wife [...] was totally horrified at the sight of the school buses coming down the road towards Twickenham full of children who were indulging in a pastime which I believe is called mooning," Lord James said.

"The sight of some 40 children mooning simultaneously is not a pretty sight, my Lords."

I'm struggling to see how he connects drivers throwing litter from cars, kids mooning from cars, and cyclists wanting to be run over whilst filming it, at a debate focussing on only one of these subjects.

Maybe he should have a word with his driver....

And is this guy on another planet, or not been reading the news?

"It’s going to lead to some catastrophic accidents very soon," Lord James warned during yesterday's debate.

So 8 deaths in 2 weeks doesn't count then?

 

[shouldbeinbed]

appropriate he mentioned mooning as I was thinking what an ar****le he seems to be

 

[snorri]

That must have been a weird debate
The topic was littering, but the noble lord managed to include cam wearing cyclists, media campaigns regarding cyclist safety, mooning children and cyclists with attitude,

Edit, woops posted same time as cosmic bike

I rather doubt his lorships credentials, I would have thought anyone who had been associated with rugby for any time would be well aware of the word 'mooning' and what it means.

Really!! This is all just getting a bit silly now. Next they'll be accusing of being eco friendly!!

Typical Tory piece of shoot,only 18 months and these scum are history

If a cyclist has felt it necessary to get off his bike and stand in the road in front of Lard James, then I think we know what kind of a driver he is.

He sits in the Lords....as such lost touch with reality a long time ago.

"My wife [...] was totally horrified at the sight of the school buses coming down the road towards Twickenham full of children who were indulging in a pastime which I believe is called mooning,"

That's feckin' hilarious!

Is this a character from The Fast Show?

He reckons that happened three Saturdays in a row. I think his missus just likes staring at childrens' bums.

 

[themosquitoking]

Or he does, i bet he doesn't often let the wife drive or chose the route.
