Homeopathy & Nutritionists vs Real Science!

There's a general, kind of... In the media,

there's a lot of that kond of stuff people don't know about numbers,

I'm a numbers guy, I'm a dweeb, all right? I apologise.

I'm a bit of a nerd about these kind of things

I get really pissed off when people give out about, like

crime going up, when say, the numbers are definitely going down.

And then if you go "The numbers are going down," they go,

"but the fear of crime is rising."

And you're going, "but so what!?" You know what I mean?

Zombies are at an all-time low level,

but the fear of zombies could be incredibly high.

It doesn't mean we have to have government policies to deal with the fear of zombies,

It's ridiculous, for Christ's sake.

The NHS... There was a survey in the NHS about dentistry, where they found that

some people were removing their own teeth! You know...

And they brought on some senior dentists onto Sky News, and gave out to him, and said

"This is terrible, People are removing their own teeth!" And this guy stood there and went

"Well, obviously systems should be put in place to deal with it."

Which is stupid! He should be going "Well, these people are clearly morons of the highest line"

[Laughter]

"Who removes their own teeth, for Christ's sake?

I'm a dentist, I don't remove my own teeth, y'know what I mean?"

But there's kind of a notion that everyones opinion is equally valid. My arse!

Bloke who's a professor of dentistry for 40 years does not have a debate with some idiot

who removes his teeth with string and a door. Alright? It's nonsense.

And it happens all the time with medical stuff on the television. They'll have a doctor on

and they'll talk to the doctor, and they're all "doctor this, and doctor that" and

"what happened there" and "doctor, isn't it awful?" Right?

And then the doctor will be talking about something, with all the benefits of research and medical evidence.

And they'll turn away from the doctor, in the name of "ballance", and turn to some

quak, witch doctor, homeopath horse shit peddler on the other side of the studio.

[Laughter]
