I have met Muffin, and his minder. Was in fact on stage with them, in Wimbledon. I remember being perturbed by the amount of powder on his keeper's face, and the possible damage that might be done to the grand piano's gleaming polished surface by his prancing about on top of it. My reward for the appearance, afair, was a book or two, and a jam tart. -
I look at some of the things I did and said in my younger days with embarrassment. Some of the behaviours crossed lines that most of us would consider appropriate for today's world. I can say I was a product of my time and my upbringing, where it was seen OK to joke about minorities, gay people and transgender people. Much of this we would have got from popular TV series.. None of what I said and did was intended to be offensive. It was juvenile and/or ignorant, and what many of my peer group did. But I recognise that it was wrong. My standards of behavior continue to evolve, as the world changes around me, and whist there are some things alien to me, I try to understand better. Nothing I did as a teenager or into my 20s comes anywhere near what Farage is purported to have done and said. If there is half a grain of truth in it then where is his apology, and where is he setting the record straight that this is not the way we should behave? -

Not sure if you've read the link but Crick's reporting for his 2002 book is different to the Guardian's reporting for its article last week.
