      The bleating out of the cu*ts ever since and just after the verdicts were delivered, plus the bleatings from the editor in chief on sky that night shows they fu**ed up and even they know they'll never get that readership from Merseyside back.

      Was also funny reading on twitter the sh*te they give Lineker after he slagged them off over Whittingdale/BBC - it really is a paper for numbskulls.

      they even tried to stitch up Ronnie Barker after he retired what sort of person sits at his desk and thinks "lets F**k up some ones life what about Ronnie Barker". the only justice for them is if the paper closes and its a day I hope to see in my lifetime. The next best thing will be to read the obituary of that fuking slime ball editor McKenzie.

      I didn't want to give this a thread and given the fact it probably stems from this sh*t rag I'll pop it in here.

      Some Worcester based munter (I'd imagine), his life has changed overnight, unfortunately for him.

      The least he deserves.

      It went absolutely ape-sh*t on Twitter last night over this F***ing mongrel, some gobs***e wannabe manc (you know having to prove what a top fan he is) got himself several printed t-shirts with offensive sh*t on them.

      Safe to say, the scousers on twitter pretty much made sure he won't be wearing any of them t-shirts anymore.

      Was arrested, charged and been bailed to appear before magistrates in July.

      It's amazing that a grown man (50 I think he is) would spend money to get sh*t printed onto a T-shirt, it seems the most vociferous munter is always from anywhere but manchester, must be a guilt complex.

      Nah those t-shirts he got printed have got F**k all to do with a guilt complex and more to do with him thinking he's a top Man U fan.

      One out and out c**t.

      Guys, I live in Worcester, I used to use the pub, the landlord Mark, and his wife Debs are top ppl, the pub is called the Brewers arms, nice wee boozer, friendly folk, there are genuine punters, many Liverpool fans and others, some of the blokes would have sorted this KUNT out, inc Manc fans btw,

      He will be sorted,make no mistake his face is all over fb so it won't be easy for the b***ard to go anywhere without someone recognising him, Worcester isn't that big a town to hide in, he is a marked man.

      It's been reported his name is Stuart Grange, he is a Manc unsurprisingly. Hopefully he'll be run out of the town.

      Fatima Manji: The Truth - why Kelvin MacKenzie's smears won't stop me from doing my job.

      14:34, 19 JUL 2016 UPDATED 15:05, 19 JUL 2016
      BY FATIMA MANJI

      WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Muslim Channel Four News journalist writes for the ECHO after former S*n editor's criticism

      Fatima Manji (Pic: Channel 4 News)

      Former S*n editor Kelvin MacKenzie sparked more than 800 complaints to press regulator Ipso after criticising Fatima Manji for wearing a Hijab on Channel Four News while reporting on the Nice attack.

      Writing exclusively for the ECHO, Fatima sets out exactly why he was so wrong
      It would be easy to dismiss Kelvin MacKenzie as an embarrassing, and serially embarrassed, relic of a bygone era in British journalism.

      After all, this is the man who slurred survivors of one of our most tragic national atrocities of recent decades. It took him 23 years to apologise and four more to claim he was ā€œcaught upā€ in a government conspiracy to tarnish Hillsborough victims, only after being confronted by brave campaigners and responsible journalists, including my Channel 4 News colleague Alex Thomson and the tireless team at the Liverpool Echo.

      So Iā€™m not expecting an apology from him any time soon.

      The Sun, you will recall, is the newspaper that appears at ease with its columnists describing refugees dying at sea as ā€œcockroachesā€.

      But itā€™s dangerous to regard Mr MacKenzie and those who echo his Islamophobic sentiments as mere pantomime villains. Their soapbox allows them to spread their ill-informed, irresponsible and malevolent invective to millions of readers. Racist and Islamophobic rhetoric has real consequences ā€“ lives have been lost and shattered in our own country.

      I was grief-stricken by the massacre in Nice, particularly by the haunting image of a little girlā€™s corpse laying next to the doll that was once her companion.

      Mr MacKenzie seemed to find my appearance on his screen equally horrific: ā€˜The scenes from Nice shocked audiences around the world, but did the C4 hosts (sic) headress (sic)?ā€™

      Widespread campaign

      Mr MacKenzieā€™s article was but one wild screed in a long-running and widespread campaign to intimidate Muslims out of public life. Young men and women of all backgrounds regularly ask me for advice on how to forge a career in journalism. Mr MacKenzieā€™s monologue will frighten many of them into believing that they will be on the end of tabloid attacks merely for daring to do their jobs.

      ā€˜Was it done to stick one in the eye of the ordinary viewer who looks at the hijab as a sign of the slavery of Muslim women by a male-dominated and clearly violent religion?ā€™

      Kelvin MacKenzie has attempted to smear 1.6 billion Muslims in suggesting they are inherently violent. He has attempted to smear half of them further by suggesting they are helpless slaves. And he has attempted to smear me by suggesting I would sympathise with a terrorist.

      In response to this, I have received kind messages from friends, colleagues, acquaintances and even those I have never met, expressing solidarity and anger at his words.

      However, others took Mr MacKenzieā€™s column as licence to manufacture a debate on whether someone like me even belongs on screen. Among them was the Guardianā€™s Roy Greenslade, who chose to cite the views of his ā€˜woman friendā€™ to give Mr MacKenzieā€™s jackbooted variety of Islamophobia some liberal credence. Meanwhile, other outlets have taken to discussing whether or not I am a 'token'.

      The truth is I always pride myself on journalistic integrity regardless of who Iā€™m interviewing or what story Iā€™m covering.

      That is my mission at Channel 4 News. I will not be deterred in this mission by the efforts of those who find the presence of Muslims in British cultural life offensive.

      THE TRUTH? I confess. I pi**ed on Kelvin MacKenzieā€™s apparent ambitions to force anyone who looks a little different off our screens, and Iā€™ll keep doing it.

      Parliamentary praise for Colin Murray's anti-shitrag stance.
      A parliamentary motion was made to support DJ Colin Murray who quit talkSPORT over it's links with the s-n.

      MP Steve Rotherham's Early Day Motion expressed ''admiration for the presenter's reference and loyalty to the 96 victims of Britain's worst ever sporting disaster''.

      Another major Liverpool supermarket stops selling copies of The S*n

      Another major Liverpool supermarket has stopped selling The S*n because there is ā€œno demandā€ for it.

      Tescoā€™s Allerton Road superstore has withdrawn the reviled tabloid from its shelves this week.

      It comes after around 100 city shops stopped selling the newspaper in recent months because of mounting public pressure, according to campaigners.

      And the ECHO earlier revealed how the Unite trade union is calling for a meeting with Sainsburyā€™s bosses after workers expressed concern about The S*n being on sale in Liverpool stores.

      Asked about The S*n being pulled from the shelves of Tescoā€™s Allerton Road superstore, a spokesman said: ā€œWe stock all major local and national newspaper titles in our stores and we are always listening to the feedback that our customers give us.

      ā€œIn stores where there is no demand for a particular title, that store would not receive that particular publication.ā€

      The spokesman confirmed The S*n was withdrawn from sale this week.

      The Total Eclipse of The S*n campaign group was set up earlier this year to pressure shops into no longer selling the newspaper.

      Paul Collins and Alan Gordon, two of the founders of the movement, previously said in a statement: ā€œIn less than eight weeks we have driven The S*n newspaper out of more than 100 newsagents and establishments in Liverpool, including major supermarkets and major petrol stations.ā€

      The campaign was officially endorsed by the ruling Labour group of Liverpool city council and protests have taken place outside some shops, including Morrisons in Speke and the Sainsburyā€™s store on East Prescot Road, Knotty Ash.

      The S*n has been boycotted in Merseyside ever since its shameful coverage of the Hillsborough disaster in 1989.
