The Daily Mail: by scum for scum

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Yet another corker from everyone's favourite middle England fascist rag.

What they think of the Jody McIntyre issue...

Phew, that's nasty stuff. :evil:

Not liking the way they equate getting beaten by cops with a natural accident either - as if it's a normal kinda thing that happens to people. What world are this lot living in anyway?

I quite like a read of The Mail in the morning.

I mean, how would I know what to be OUTRAGED about later in the day otherwise?

:lol:

That was my thought. It's like they're saying that standing near police officers at a protest is asking for a beating. This either implies you don't have a right to protest or that police officers are indiscriminate thugs.

I used to spend so much time commenting on articles in the Mail Online when it was on the main Yahoo page where they now have News, Sport, & Entertainment.

I think they're just Sh*t Stirrers and out for all the comments on their articles they can get.

It did really p*ss me off though when I'd spend so much time commenting on an aricle only for them to reject it. I think I was too Right Wing for their liking at times even though I'm in no way Right Wing (well maybe a little bit) but what do they expect when they have stories that would make anyones blood boil - Bogus asylum seekers living in luxury at tax payers expense, light prison sentances for big crimes................

Does that make me Scum? I don't think so.

Happy Christmas Everyone

The Mail just reports the extremes where asylum is concerned. The Guardian does the same thing but the opposite end.
Most of the asylum seekers I met were not remotely genuine, but they weren't living in luxury either judging by the look and smell of some of them. Most were in B&B's, which I doubt are luxurious.

As for Jody McK..
Well, it's a bit like me walking through a dark alley at night shouting "Look at my nice fat wallet", or my girlfriend doing the same but wearing nothing but a bikini. We've every right to do it, but we're putting ourselves in harms way knowingly, and most people would think "That was a stupid thing to do, what did they expect?" when something unpleasant happened to us. There are certain things common sense tells you are not good ideas and I think he ignored that unless his view of the police is a lot more rose-tinted than mine has been recently.

Would I be wrong in assuming that original piece was by a certain Mr Littlejohn?
