Not so much the Mail and their agenda but personally i think the family of Kane Gorny are right to be angry by it, as they feel let down by them.

They've closed the comments and hidden the six already made. I think they might have already taken an absolute battering over that piece.

I'm not surprised, its probably as close to outright racism that an editor thought they could get without being prosecuted - you can only assume what the original drafts must have been like.

Its good however that the Olympics have driven the extreme right wing commentators and politicians out into the open - we know exactly how their minds work now and where they would like us to be in their utopia - we knew they were still there from the last time a Conservative government was in power, they just don't fly their colours very often, they must be feeling brave now.

If there was ever an arguement for no more free press, that article is it.

Am I reading this correctly? Are they really saying what it looks like they're saying?

Yep, and thats apparently the approved version, the one that got past the editor and the lawyers.

You obviously either didn't bother reading the article or are having trouble with basic English Language comprehension. Otherwise you'd have seen this bit:

How does the family of Kane – and indeed the thousands of others we have heard of and the many more we haven’t – feel when they see the NHS being shamefully glorified at the biggest sporting bonanza in the world?

Sick to the stomach, I imagine


He "imagines" how the family may feel. How the fook does he know how they may feel?

It's shoddy journalism of th very worst kind, eagerly supped up by clueless idiots like you.

If I were a journalist I'd be offended by anyone calling it that.

No, really it isn't. Its an argument for responsible journalism.
