The blokes probably a Muslim, or at least sounds like a Paki.
The bloke has some sort of Mental illness.
The bloke may have broken the law by trafficking drugs.
Result = let him hang, good riddance.
Compare that to.
Being a white Brit.
Being middle class, maybe even a Christian or at least C of E.
And computer hacking, or a bit of bank fraud.
I see we have a “shambles” and “chaos” on the hight street. This reversion to the original VAT rate has been on the cards for the last six months. So what’s the problem?
Perhaps she means “a newspaper industry full of recreational drugtakers (and liars, workplace bullies, drunkards, adulterers, thieves, phone-tappers, etc) has no right to lecture anyone on morality”. Although I’m not sure I’d totally agree with that, since even Paul Dacre hasn’t actually shot anybody in the back of the head, to the best of my knowledge.
Wow! Michael White in the Guardian is much more sophisticated – we’ve no right to condemn China because of the oOpium Wars, which were fought 150 years ago. The quality press may have more elevated points of comparison, but the arguments are equally stupid.
How is that a headline? Chaos reigns in Christmas sales……………?
Shops have already said that they won’t action the VAT rise until after the sales, to help continue the good sales this Christmas.
And anyone with a brain realises that it’s going up anyway.
Typical Mail I guess. Criticise when it’s cut. Criticise again when it’s put back to where it was!
Very hard to actually read about politics when you have one Communications man deciding what we read.
Every paper is tory these days. It has to go through the Andy Coulson censor before it gets to us.
As an example, independent report today suggesting that unemployment levels are much better than expected (in large part because of Fiscal Stiumuls). What’s more, another claim that unemployment will rise by quite a bit more if the tories win power, and implement immediate cuts.
Does this beat the Coulson censor? Well I’ll challenge you to find the full story anywhere!
The “to rise even more under the tories if they gain power” has been conveniantly chopped from everything other than the BEEB coverage!
politics is depressing.
1: Big business decide who they want in power based on tax promises
2: Big business, who own media, tell them who to back to get such tax promises
3: Media back such person
4: Wall to wall coverage of one party for 12 months
5: People decide that the party who the media is criticizing so much, must be bad
I like how the Mail assumes that everyone in the country has a hive mentality, a nation full of people, huddled around an open fire, revering Kate Moss.
“A columnist who reveres straw man arguments like this has no right to lecture anyone about anything”
“junkies like Kate Moss”??? That’s a libel suit waiting to happen, surely?
I knew the Fail would take this stance:

Result = outrage, no extradition

I just walked down Clapham High Street and it didn’t seem in the least chaotic
A junkie refers to someone addicted to opiates. As in narcotic opiad found within poppies. As in heroin.
Hasn’t Kate Moss just been pictured taking cocaine like twice?
Labelling her a “junkie” to make a poor point. I guarentee she will probably sue.
As in, David Cameron has admitted taking class A drugs in his 20s. As has George Osborne.
Are they junkies?

And so it goes on
Does Littlejohn count for the Nonentities award, or are they keeping it to just British people?
um… i didnt even know this nation “revered” kate moss.
The Mail certainly reveres Mossy going by all the shite stories it publishes about her hols in the Med.
I like how the Mail assumes that everyone in the country has a hive mentality, a nation full of people, huddled around an open fire, revering Kate Moss.
Here’s a non-entity but hey, she’s got big plastic tits so we’ll shove her on the front page anyway.
nonenTITIES
Kate Moss is still one of the prettiest faces in the whole world.`~~
even if Kate Moss is short, she has that unique pretty face’,`
