You don't mean he *is* .@doonhamer60. You mean that you *believe* he is. You know perfectly well that this definition aids general mass migration. But why do you choose this odd meaning? By the way, I have asked you not to use my Christian name. Please oblige — PolitiTweet.org

Actually @ianturner4, Neville Chamberlain spent *billions* in today's money on rearmament in the late 1930s. See my book 'The Phoney Victory'. But it was for a different war from the one he ended up getting us into https://t.co/VuA2rh5TED — PolitiTweet.org

3/3 .@doonhamer60. your position, as well as being dishonest, is inexpressibly boring and unoriginal. I can see why you struggled for so long to avoid making it plain. I must ask you to leave now. The door is over there. — PolitiTweet.org

2/3 Anyway, @doonhamer60, we have now established that you do not in fact favour any real restrictions on migration to this country, and maintain this position, rather dishonestly, by having a definition of 'refugee' so broad that almost nobody could ever fail to meet it. — PolitiTweet.org
