Brian really does come across as a preaching leftie who never has to worry how his next bill will paid. His 'bollocks to the economy' campaign along with his rants about first-class air travel show just how out of touch he is with ordinary folk.

So why does it bother you so much? You must to some degree know he has a point.
It's like smoking, we know it's bad for us, but people still do it. While the industry has gotten way out of hand.
DISCLAIMER: Not a vegan/vegetarian or a treehugger nor a hippie.
Drinking Cows Milk is bad for you? Excuse the pun but that's Bullshit. May's all for saving 'Cuddly' Badgers which do carry TB, BUbut he said nothing about the mass cull of Cattle when the Foot and Mouth outbreak took place and he wants less Cattle as they cause global warming. He's a great guitarist and written some amazing tunes but I am sick of his left wing radical preaching tree hugging politics.

Saying it's "bullshit" doesn't really help your case. It's you vs. a wellread, wellspoken, PhD rockgod. :D You can't win, unless you come with sources to back it up.

The badgers got the TB from the cows. That's what all the evidence says.
So if the cows have the TB, should we keep them alive so that we can eat their beef and drink their milk?
The cattle industry is out of control. We should breed less of them to begin with - they account for about as much greenhouse gas emissions as all the world's transport combined. But, supply and demand. Until genetically modified meat is proven safe, cheaper, and equally nutritious, little will change.
Furthermore - calling Brian names as per his perceived political leanings (he is a lifelong conservative voter, for the record) isn't doing much to help your position.
