Summary

It's O'Neill versus O'Neill... versus O'Neill versus O'Neill versus O'Neill versus O'Neill. It's a six-way Brendan O'Neill battle moderated by the only man who could possibly moderate a clash of intellectual titans like this: Brendan O'Neill. It may sound like @inthesedeserts, @raaleh, @Hkesvani, @AliceAvizandum, @milo_edwards, @rocknrolga, and our friend Phoebe Roy (@10kpostspod), but we must insist it is all Brendan O'Neill. They are debating the motion: THB the chattering classes of this once great nation are at it again.

Tonight's motion is the following.

0:40.3

This house believes that the chattering classes of this once great nation are at it again. Our teams are composed of leading lights in the field of rationality, free speaking and cultural analysis. From the government, we have the dream team of Brendan O'Neill, Brendan O'Neill and Brendan O'Neill. They'll be facing off against formidable opposition, however. A team comprised of the titans of Brendan O'Neill,

and of course,

0:45.3

if you like a caramel waffle, we just don't have too many and do a bit better.

0:48.3

We have gathered together such mighty teams because the question is such a mighty one.

0:52.3

The peculiar psychology of the chattering classes has been a matter of concern for Brendan's

0:57.2

O'Neill since the early 80s when their beloved political correctness came into being.

1:40.0

able to hold opinions not only contrary to their opponents,
