On another thread he was losing an argument so started down the line of "my missus is better looking than your missus, go on put a picture up of your missus and I shall do too".  Like you're losing an argument on politics so you start saying "Yeah but my Dad's bigger than your dad".  It was cringeworthy, he's getting worse.

On another thread, a poster invited him to stick Newham up his arse.

It seems that he has taken that advice on board and now needs it to be surgically removed.

Perhaps a lobotomy could also help.

I know where I live all local weekly newspapers have a full page dedicated to local court news. Its not usually serious crime. Things like speeding offences, driving without insurance etc. I have to say a disproportionate number of offences  are committed by eastern European people who live in my area.

What this utter cretin does not seem to grasp is that "bigot" may also refer to asians in his beloved Newham, British or otherwise.

So where's the list, smart arse?

To be honest, I've never even heard of, or imagined, a devoted 'crime and courts' page. (Or whatever you called it).


Look at the 'Newham Recorder News' website. On the red bar, run your mouse over 'News' and it comes up on a drop down menu.

If they didn't report any crime and took out the 'houses for sale' pages, the real paper would be a lot thinner.

As I said in my very long post on the politics forum.

The govt don't like spending money in Newham.

Apart from the overcrowding and shortage of council housing, Newham has the highest risk of getting evicted with 1 in 36 private tenants  likely to be evicted because of rents being too high.

Barking is next with 1 in 38, then Haringey with 1 in 42.

Perhaps, if families get evicted, they can go and live just outside Bicester,  in Cleggy's  new town.

On the other hand, they may get the same reception as the plan to put Newham's population overspill into cheaper housing in Stoke last year.

Narrowing it down to two words, instead of reams of paper detailing why not, 'fack off' would have sufficed.

Still, £30 million on a new roof for the Olympic Park Stadium (which is in Newham) will no doubt cheer everybody up.

It's duly noted that not one of the forums luvvies has ever tried to explain why so many asians and africans flock to one area of east London, where there's not enough work for them.

Do they know where to go before they get off the plane, ship, or 40 footer?

Gangs unit activity (June 2013-4)
105 arrests
52 search warrants
35 charges
35 detections
14 convictions
47.5 years worth of sentences
31 proactive operations
3 firearms recovered

I wonder if they have the same sort of gang trouble in Chester?

Apart from the money-launderers that have settled there from Liverpool/Manchester, the most terrifying gangs in Chester are the legal folk charging ridiculous fees to keep them in nice cars, nice houses (well away from the immigrants they pretend to love), nice holidays in 'safe' Africa, and fine-dining opportunities in London.

Yes, I remember the 'we felt entirely safe' quote from the african holiday.

Shame he never replied about the abandonment of singing of xmas carols in junior school in Barking, but there you go.

fine-dining opportunities in London.

Brick Lane, Whitechapel, Tower Hamlets.

A run down road back in the day, is now a 'trendy road' for restaurants.

Mind you, he thought he was in Newham, just like when he had a 'pleasant time' playing the piano as a student in a shopping mall in East Ham (Newham)

There isn't one.

It was Vicarage Fields Shopping Mall, which is in Barking. 

Bless.

It's a real shame that the Great Man ran away like a cowardly 'in-denial' leftie after losing the bet about the cancellation of the Infants Christmas Carol concert. I for one would have been interested in his opinion about the subsequent PROVEN mass-rape and violent assault of white underaged girls in the UK, having first been groomed by highly-organised gangs of "men of Pakistani and African Heritage" (copyright : the UK liberal media). I would have asked him whether he thought this was a minor or insignificant detail when set against the (alleged) "Enrichment of Britain" by such immigrants.

Personally I don't think any exciting fine-dining opportunity is worth a single crime of that nature, even if consumed in a Brick Lane fashion eatery.

There are far more of you luvvies who have a go at me than I have 'cavalry' members. 

boxingthefox is correct, I don't ask for, or need, support.

I still sleep at night.

The Chester one Laugh lost his long running battle with a bet. 

He may have got fed up and left the forum, but that was long before his glorious leader, Sir Nick of the Clegg, was smashed to bits in by-elections, but it was only a  few days before Christmas 2012 that he said, and I quote, 'I'm prepared to wager a large sum of money....' on a bet that he lost.

Just after the festivities, he stopped posting.

You can choose either reason, or make up your own like you normally do, I don't really care.

Wesdag 02 Dec 14 12:40 
You really have to question the intelligence and/or the sanity of this op. 
From my innocuous comment "Newham certainly does seem to produce more than its fair share of bigots" he goes into meltdown!!
He produces a list of famous people who were born in his beloved Newham, asks for lists of bigots, and rants about the last census.
What this utter cretin does not seem to grasp is that "bigot" may also refer to asians in his beloved Newham, British or otherwise.

FWIW naydam
there have been Newham news threads for over a decade on here.

They used to get pulled as they were incorrectly reported as 'racist'

Perhaps the moderators checked the NR site, and eventually discovered that all the crime news was being posted, not just the black and asian crime, with a smattering of white crime throw in for good measure. 

5 years ago, threads on Pakistani child abuse on a massive scale would get reported as racist, and pulled in 5 minutes by the moderators, and the luvvies would gloat.

The truth is out now. 

But not one luvvie has come on herE and said 'Sorry, you people were right'

Page one was all about an estate closing down, the Newham Generals(?) and BBW(?) Ladies of questionable intent.
At least I know now, though. It's sorta in the North-East of London. No doubt this will be useful information one day.
