The voice of reason speaks....
I always wanted to have a column, I could subtitle "The voice of reason". Much like the late Woodrow Wyatt, except without being a babbling, incontinent fuckwit. Thus "What would Puskas do?". And one of the things I've always felt very strongly about - indeed, one of the first rants here, if you care to click on the archive on your right hand side and go skedadling down the pages - is about Gibraltar. Let's come back to this. I've just heard, on radio 5, someone from the Sun saying how they support the rights of the Gibraltarians to commemorate the seizure of Gibraltar from Spain by the British, and how the folks of Gibraltar are proud to be British because they put up Union Jacks.
Well pardon fucking me. But the Sun has consistently opposed immigration into this country, with an often racist line taken against some of the poorest sections of the world who really want to live here, who are fleeing from oppression in their home countries, and who are called "bogus asylum seekers" by the Sun, being attacked the most. Yet a bunch of people who don't actually want to live here, who instead live on some rock by Spain, so they can avoid paying taxes, are known as genuinely British, simply because they fly our flag? So does the Sun support football hooligans who beat the crap out of foreigners, as long as they hold a Union Flag whilst they're doing it?
I've said it before, but it wants to be said again - remove the British citizenship of the people of Gibraltar, and give it to those people who want to live here.
Although, of course, Rupert Murdoch doesn't live here. Mind you, he doesn't pay taxes here, either, as despite his company, News International, making a gross profit of approximately 1.5billion GBP, he's not paid tax for the last 11 years.
Just who are these patriots he loves, again?
