Disagree

Right, I need you to actually make an argument first, mate. You can't just say "disagree" and expect me to have a proper row with thin air, can you? What's your position on celebrities in politics? Do you think they should stick to their day jobs and shut up about Brexit and Trump, or do you reckon they've got every right to use their platform to bang on about whatever cause tickles their fancy? Give me something to properly tear apart here. I'm Ricky Gervais - I didn't get where I am by pulling punches against vague statements. Make your case so I can destroy it properly.
