Do you think she has finally lost it or is this a ploy to create more employment???

I mean can you just see factories being created to produce tiny little milking machines for rats, cats and dogs???

And what do you suppose she proposes is done with all the little baby rats, cats and dogs which will need to be bred so that their mothers can produce milk for human consumption? Doesn't sound particularly ecologically sound to me.

but MB that's all media coverage of what she's said. She may have meant that they didn't really show up on her radar as she wasn't a fan not that she had literally never heard of them. She has to be allowed to defend herself against alligations like gold digger etc.

I'm off again, I really don't give two hoots honest!

Walnutshell · 20/11/2007 18:53

I feel rather sorry for her because it doesn't matter what she says - her media portrait has been cast and is almost unshakeable (look at Craig David for example!). So, even if she was making a flippant remark to illustrate a valid point, the context will have intentionally been lost in order to ridicule her.

Pigeons produce milk.

London could be one huge milking parlour.

pointydog · 20/11/2007 19:05

har!

Have you seen that Simpsons episode where there is a huge rat milking production line at the school providing the children's school milk? SOme fat tony scam I think.

It is var funny. And even Homer - yes, pork-snout Homer - turns green at the sight.

Flamesparrow · 20/11/2007 21:17

F&Z - A couple of DH's mates worked with her... there is a reason for the hating apparently

Prunie · 20/11/2007 21:36

Pigeons produce milk? From where?????

Tamum, how did s/he milk mice? HOW???

Moondog says weasel milk is the closest to human milk. Weasel...Rhino...I wonder why not chimp? I am off to google.

(Agree that HMM is by now a total victim of the press but not very savvy with it, iyswim.)

beansprout · 20/11/2007 21:38

Could people possibly be open to the idea that she has been misrepresented by the press?

Prunie · 20/11/2007 21:51

I googled
Buggered if I can find a list of milks that are closest to human
It's not much to ask of the world wide web, is it?

Freckle · 20/11/2007 21:57

I do agree that she has a hard time in the press. But it can't all be misrepresentations. Didn't her PR person resign because she ignored advice regarding her recent spate of press interviews, particularly the ones where she's been bad-mouthing Saint Paul.

Anyone fancy catching a rat to squeeze over your cup of tea in the morning?

Perhaps she is thinking of that Simpsons episode when the mafia were selling rats milk to the school? Jealous that she never got invited to do one thats what it is.

HowOldAREyouAgainDaniel · 20/11/2007 23:54

Everyone is misrepresented by the press.

However, anyone with any sense knows that there comes a time when the hole is just getting bigger and bigger and you need to shut up.

AlistairSim · 21/11/2007 14:35

Prunie - from their little pigeon norks, of course.

It's true, really it is....the sparrows told me.

spokette · 21/11/2007 15:16

Why doesn't she choose to stay out of the lime light?

I suspect that she craves the attention, adulation and perks that come with being a z list sleb who has no discernable talent other than promoting themselves via any vehicle that will have them. In her case, PETA, VIVA etc.

She is a grown up, she knows what the media is like but yet she deliberately entices them into her sorry life.

She does not want to be a nobody.

lol at cervical smears of epileptic rats.......

whatever for MP???

Tamum · 21/11/2007 16:10

Pruni, since you ask he used a teeny syringe (without the needle, obviously). I did suggest he should be wearing a mob cap and a pinny, and have tiny little buckets on a yoke, but to no avail. Incidentally, I don't believe a word of the weasel milk stuff- if they knew that it was closest to human milk they would have to have done extensive HPLC and proteomics and stuff, and if they had gone to all that trouble there would be some sign of it in the scientific literature. And there isn't, so I reckon it's a crock. Doesn't sound remotely likely anyway, as you say chimp would have to be closer.

Blandmum · 21/11/2007 16:18

Olive

There is some anecdotal data that suggests that epilepsy might affect the regularity of periods and have some effect on fertility as a result.

The question arises, does treating the epilepsy and reducing the number of seizures have any beneficial effect.

Thus the study on rats, because you cannot not treat epileptic humans!

(you did ask!)
