Still irrelevant, Mickey. So you can't get away from them - so what? Does that mean then that you should nominate someone you loathe but could put up with for a while, or someone you want to try and talk round to your way of thinking, or someone you want to take out of circulation for a while to benefit the rest of the world, or someone you just want to drown on the beach?

In other words, the "island" part of the question is not relevant because it doesn't narrow down the possibilities at all. You could just as well say, "You're in a hotel lobby, and you see someone you loathe next to you. Who is it?" The situation has no bearing on the answer.

Now if you said, "You're on a chat-show with someone you loathe and you have the chance to expose them for the fraud they are", now *that* would narrow it down to something worth considering. Or, "You can nominate someone you loathe to be stranded on a desert island for the rest of their life."

PS. "belt" = hit, "bonce" = head, "boulder" = large rock.
