Hey, I was just wondering what it was like getting to travel with Richard Dawkins. And if you could talk a bit about your new movie :) also as a bonus, who is the most stubborn person you've met in your debates/discussions and why? (Please say Neil Tyson)

I can actually really imagine Hawking being stubborn, thanks for the reply :)

You wanna give us some sneaky details for Interstellar? ;) It'll just be between me, you, reddit and the NSA

Plus Ireland and Scotland have a chance to be free
This is true. Well, if you change Ireland to Northern Ireland at least.
The UK offers more freedom and democracy than the EU
Unfortunately not. The UK has far more restrictions on freedoms than most other Western European nations, and since European laws have been blocking the Tories from their wet dreams of a police state things may get severely worse if the UK also starts withdrawing from things such as the ECHR.
The EU parliament is also elected via proportional representation and grants the UK (as well as every other member state) the option to veto a wide range of goings on within the EU which is a great deal more democratic than the antiquated political system of the UK.

It's great to hear information on how Palestinians are treated in other Arab nations. I honestly had no idea about the maltreatment until reading this. I wish you the best of luck and hope things improve for you and your people.
My question is, what do you feel will solve this maltreatment of Palestinians? Would it just be the formation of a Palestinian state?
Also, if you have the time, how do you feel about the religious extremism found in the places you've lived in the middle east?
