No offence JHB, but you spend an awful lot of time taking offence at the possibility that someone will take offence. In fact, I'd say that you and similar pundits have made a career out of taking offence at the possibility of others taking offence. Sorry - no offence intended.

No, I’ve made a career out of being a journalist. My hobby is taking the piss out of people who take offence at everything. It doesn’t pay as well as you’d think...

Journalism that takes a non-story and turns it into yet another myth about PC 'going mad' - I'm familiar with it.

Clive is my MP. It personally offends me that he would sit in the house of commons and mime killing himself because of a speech. Every time my mental illness has resulted in me shaking and crying as I push a knife into my wrist, it has been far from amusing.

The fact that you so easily dismiss how this might appear to those of us who live at risk of suicide doesn't speak well of you. And about people being too easily offended; this isn't a group of friends making a stupid joke, this is a front bench opposition MP on TV in the HoC.

You don't think it was ill-judged? Just because one 'can' cause offence it doesn't mean that one 'should'. Causing offence is a right, but let's not make it a virtue.
