On the flipside I think it's fair for him to question Patrick's moralising. 

He's a provocateur, and an extremist. He's been less effective of late, but I'm aware of how bad cats are for native birds because of him. He was an early promoter of the UBI debate, pushing the ideas into public consciousness.

We haven't heard from him and Rob has become the spokesman, but Gareth's money has still funded Hooper, Davila and Taylor coming here and Sarpreet developing and moving to Bayern. He's stepped aside, but has still been working for us.

He should get more respect, IMO. His politics can be viewed at a distance from his support of the club.

The view that life can be valued is a constant of public policy choices. It's just that corona is making the choice stark. 

Agree with a lot this. He's a provacateur part nutty for sure - but some of what he says makes you question the status quo, and that ain't a bad thing.

Not so sure he deserves more respect, but yes would much rather prefer that his views didn't get tangled up with the Phoenix, through Twitter spats.
