I meant to take photos of it the other day (pretty much just because we got a new digital camera and it's effing sweet, and I'm a child with a new toy), because the headlines were utterly laughable. But I forgot.

On the entire front page was scribed - in enormous bright read lettering upon a black background - "LAWLESS BRITAIN"
And then scrawled underneath, "turn to pages 2,3,4,5,6,76,7,57", as they like to do.

So my curiosity gets the better of me and I cautiously open the page. To be greeted with something like

"UNKNOWN NUMBER OF ILLEGALS IN COUNTRY. WHY?"

on the whole page.

Illegals.
Illegals

And Lawless Britain? Because I agree entirely - we really are in a state of absolute anarchy at the moment.
And clearly this is entirely down to the amount of illegal immigrants in this country. Because hey, every single one of them are trouble making darkies, hell bent on bringing the country to its knees.
None of them are decent, law abiding people, are they? None of them actually help sustain and improve the nation's economy at all!

Nope, this illegals species are doing nought but making Britain a place of lawlessness.
Ugh, I honestly do not know why my parents buy and read this paper so religously.

Does anyone disagree that The Sun spoiled DW by revealing the new Dalek way before broadcast?

I don't.

The Sun will tell you anything to keep ahead of the Mirror.

Remember the false photos that led to Piers Morgan being fired? We'll be hearing about that for years to come.

Does anyone think that the Sun could actually be dangerous?

It is sold as a family paper despite having pornographic content advertised throughout.
It stealthily encourages racism and incites moral panic over paedophiles/the internet/recent computer game/racial minority/ what have you. (Justified in some cases granted but always taken to the extreme and nearly always encouraging some form of illegal vigilanteism(sp?))

Constantly printing unverified exposes on possibly guilty people, destroying celebrity careers they were hitherto drooling over the day before...

Constantly calls its conflicting beliefs.. an example being their demonisation of red-tape but at the same time wanting more background checks on teachers/ pilots etc.

Of course I am not attacking freedom of speech (I hope). But it's the sheer hypocrisy of the libelous publication, coupled with the fact that it has a family name that leads me think it should have more responsibility.

Just a thought.

Ha, someone I know was in the Sun yesterday, and in the Guardian, and on the news, and on GMTV, all because he isn't getting any.

Funny, though.

I'm really not concerned, I meant that to be a light hearted comment. Well it's hard to fully express yourself over here anyways.

And yeah, it's not a surprise to see you have a little rough 'n' tumble on here. As I said, I like a bit of spice to the forums, and you my friend make it interesting :)
