If you want to know how to stand up to bullies, this is the way to go.

Richard Dawkins takes on the homophobes and wins, hands down, with a first round knockout.

Our hats are off, they’re off and they’re on the hook for the scientist – married to Doctor Who actress Lalla Ward – as he takes on the LOLers and gives them the middle finger.

Wonderful stuff.

We particularly loves his attempts to pronounce ‘beeeatch” and his assessment of the letters…

“I think they’re all just rather fun.”
