A serious implication of such headlines in tabloids is the spread of hatred towards all immigrants and this should not be ignored. It is ridiculous what the Daily Mail, The Sun etc. makes up about e.g. the Poles, making generalisations about whole nations. It really angers me that they are not taking responsibility for the race hatred they are creating (or contributing to significantly) Great article.

Facebook automatically switches back to the "top stories" view when you haven't visited for a while. They do it so you don't miss out on some of the older, popular posts. It’s not a bug.

It keeps changing it back. Looking for a way to eliminate "top stories" once and for all. Its appearance is a bug that makes me hardly use Facebook, because "top stories" is useless, and i keep having to knock it down like it is a whack-a-mole. This does not work.

On a more general note what can any fair minded person expect when buying this hate rag? when you look at the list of regular contributors, the knuckle-dragger Littlejohn [BNP Nick Griffin's favourite journalist] that alone should tell you all you need about this odious homophobe....Kelvin MacKenzie, Melanie Phillips, Jan Moir and the chief immigrant hater herself, Aussie immigrant and self proclaimed moral conscience of Britain Amanda Platell. Lets hope that Chillcott makes these hateful people answerable for the bile they regular y serve up.

]]> Comment on Daily Mail uncovers the ‘truth’ about Catgate by Timhttp://minority-thought.com/media/2011/10/daily-mail-uncovers-the-truth-about-catgate#comment-2003 Tim Wed, 23 Nov 2011 09:23:21 +0000 http://minority-thought.com/?p=4794#comment-2003 I went to school with Jason Groves. In fact we went inter-railing round Europe together when we were 17. Haven't seen him for 20 years - the last I heard of him he was "Beast of Bodmin" correspondent for a Cornish newspaper. So I was shocked to find him referenced in this piece. Actually not that shocked. He was always a bit of a c**t. I went to school with Jason Groves.
