As the Daily Mail picks up another story of mephedrone madness – this time the death of a daughter of a premiership footballer. Her tragic death is being used opportunistically by the tabloids to support their unscientific banning of mephedrone. In reality Sibylle Siberski tragically committed suicide, and the drugs she took are being used as a stick to attack them with. The fact that she killed herself after breaking up with a five month long relationship with her boyfriend is ignored – as is the fact she was taking another harmful drug, which acts as a depressant – champagne.
This dangerous champagne drug is associated with some of the worst criminals in the world – Saddam Hussein, Robert Mugabe, George Bush, Tony Blair, Maggie Thatcher and Tim Westwood are all known to have taken champagne at various times in their life. The effects of this drug have been disastrous – many former Eton pupils are known to have taken champagne regularly throughout their schooldays and then moved on to erratic and destructive behaviour resulting in millions of British people being made unemployed, in the coal and steel industries.
Alan Duncan gets high before launcing a vicious attack on the poor.
Champagne also inspired hostile, aggressive and unreasonable behaviour towards the people of Scotland, as many regular champagne users in the Tory cabinet continually denied the right for Scotland to have it’s own Parliament. This violent behaviour reached it’s worst when the Tories champagne induced madness led them to inflict the poll tax in Scotland. Regular champagne junkie Maggie Thatcher was so poisoned by the drug that she had to be dragged kicking and screaming from power by her own party members, desperate to put the clean living moderate John Major in her place.
SSY thinks if the tabloids are going to blame mephedrone baselessly for the tragic suicide of a young girl then we should take action against champagne, whose drug fuelled madness has allowed Tories to cause massive harm to some of the poorest communities in the UK.
“OH GOD OH GOD STOP I CAN SEE SATAN HE’S LOOKING RIGHT AT ME!” -- this is not a common response to listening to most music, with the exception of Green Day or Daniel O’Donnell. However the world’s finest newspaper has found another TERRIFYING threat to your children -- noiseodrugs. Just when you thought your weans were safe from mephedrone -- or “meow meow” as no-one under 40 calls it -- sick bastards have concocted a new method to terrify your kids, and this time all they need is a pair of headphones and (surprise surprise) the internet to overdose.
The “drug” is called idoser and works by playing a series of binaural beats which affect certain parts of the brain to simulate being high. Some users claim to experience a high similar to being on cannabis or ecstasy, depending on what they listen to. Other tunes -- called “Idoses” -- are designed to be more extreme, almost like a bad trip and are called scary names like “Gates of Hades”. One user allegedly clawed his own eyes out with his fingers so he could jam a pencil into his brains whilst listening to “Gates of Hades” -- it later was revealed he was in fact listening to S-Club 7 “Ain’t no party like an S-Club Party”, which is still legal and unregulated.
It remains to be seen if the Government will try and ban idoses. Right now it seems very unlikely -- no one has died or been seriously harmed from idoses, and the nature of the internet makes it almost impossible to ban someone from listening to a piece of music. There’s also understandable disbelief about someone being able to get high off of listening to something (though amazingly binaural beats can affect brain waves).
Listening to this man is 23% more dangerous than crack.
I wouldn’t underestimate the power of media hysteria combined with Government opportunism though -- the fact people won’t understand how you can get high off of sounds may disturb and scare them more than getting high off of something you can understand like pills or grass. And under the ridiculous and draconian Criminal Justice Act “repetitive beats” which may be associated with drug use are technically illegal -- someone tell the Orange Order ASAP. Thankfully the tuneful symphony of most Irish rebel songs keeps them clearly on the side of British law.
With mephedrone banned after a wave of hysteria and media exaggeration in the face of scientific evidence, it’s not impossible idoses could be banned if newspapers decide to run with it. All it would take is a couple of savvy editors picking up stories of folk dying within a couple of hours/same evening as listening to an idose to start a frenzy, regardless of how they actually died - the same way they did with mephedrone. The reality is stuff like idoses -- like all things humans do to get high -- has been around for hundreds of years, it’s just been called something different. Instead of listening through headphones to get high tribes used to listen to repetitive drumming beats. Fortunately it took British imperialism a few hundred years before they banned that kind of thing in the Criminal Justice Act.
SSY has already risked life and limb to bring you a few examples of terrifying idoses which we have outlined below. Listen at your own peril,
Behavioural psychology tells us that in the morning you’ll be 17.8% safer after listening to this Idose
Call the polis, I can hear repetitive beats
OH GOD IT’S CALLED GATES OF HADES BAN THIS SICK FILTH NOW
A National Health Service. A welfare state. Letting 18 year olds get legally bevvied. Not bombing countries that haven’t attacked you. There’s a lot of things which are quite popular around the world which the United States hasn’t quite got into yet. But the biggest international phenomenon to go straight over the heads of Americans right now is the World Cup. It’s not exactly surprising given that Americans don’t even call football by it’s right name; they call it “Soccer” cos they already nicked the word football for their own version, which has nothing to do with actual football, kind of like how their Republican Party has fuck all to do with actual Republicanism.
Still each to their own, it’s not like many/any other countries are interested in American Football is it? Surely we can just leave it at that, and enjoy the relaxing and unending serenade of the vuvuzuela while Americans try to make sense of their own insane, overhyped, Michael Bay-directed, body-armour version of football? Unfortunately, some US nutters -- as previously featured in Leftfield -- go beyond leaving it at a simple sporting disagreement. They’ve seen the true nature of “Soccer” -- another part of the World Socialist Conspiracy to dominate and undermine traditional American sporting events. Check this guy out,
You can see that Barack Osama Homo Bin Laden, to give him his full Presidential title, managed to get the United States into the World Cup because he wants to discourage Americans from using their arms, as you obviously can’t use your hands in football (unless you’re part of the French/Uruguayan team).
Is it possible for this man to be any more awesome?
And it’s not just mentals on youtube who have declared war on football -- other people on the Right in the US media have attacked it as a “poor man’s sport” and said “baseball fans don’t riot”. Fair point but then again 13 year old Brazilian kids are unlikely to methodically mow down their fellow classmates in school with an M-16 assault rifle either.
A lot of American disinterest in football is because it’s quite different from other US sports like American football, baseball, basketball etc in that there is much less ’scoring’. The last US Superbowl result was 31 -- 17 to the New Orleans Colts over the Indianapolis Colts, while the last World Cup Final result was a 1-1 draw between Italy and France which Italy won 5 -- 3 on penalties.
Other opposition to football is based on the structure of the sport being less advertising friendly than mainstream US sports. The Superbowl in the United States is notorious for being among if not the most expensive television spot in the world -- a 30 second TV ad during this years superbowl will cost in the region of $2.6 million.
In football however you can’t squeeze a lot of adverts in 90 minutes with only a short break after 45 minutes (and even then a lot of that space is taken up by Alan Hansen desperately trying to find some way to kill himself with his own shoelaces in despair at the England squad). The last time the USA hosted the World Cup in 1994 they tried to break the game into quarters to make it more advertiser friendly, before being told to fuck off by FIFA.
There is a nastier edge to some opposition to football in the US though, which has it’s base in racism and prejudice against the working people throughout the world who support it. Conservatives in the US have attacked football as being part of the “browning” of America due to it’s widespread support among hispanics in the states, along with accusing football of being founded by Indians who used a head as a ball. There is also an association of football with Europe, which US conservatives believe is hell because it has a welfare state, Labour parties and nationalised healthcare. Also the riots associated with football are not as widespread as in US sports, which gives some right-wingers the opportunity to smear football as being intrinsically associated with hooliganism and criminality.
You get some of those arguments in the UK as well which go on to this day, over the Hillsborough Disaster, where a Tory minister repeated the slur that it was due to Liverpool’s predominantly working class support acting as hooligans that led to the deaths, and not incompetent police.
The reason why some Conservatives in the US dislike and slander football is because of the nature of the game -- anyone can play it if you have the skill for it. You don’t need expensive gear and equipment for it -- as one of the nutters in an earlier video said, it’s a sport poor people can enjoy, all you need is 11 folk and a ball and not lots of athletic equipment. You don’t need to have a knowledge of extensive regulations (bar the offisde rule). And you don’t even need to have a lot of space for the basics of it. You can master the basics of football in a school playground, then take it to a stadium. Put simply football is one of the easiest sports for people around the world who aren’t rich to pick up and enjoy.
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAH
You can see that when you look at the results of which teams have won the World Cup in it’s history -- 7 teams have picked up the trophy, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Italy, France, West Germany and England (and even then the English cheated). While 4 out of the 7 countries that have picked up the trophy are developed Western countries, the other 3 are teams from the poorer global south. Brazil has picked up the trophy more times than any other country in the world despite the money the west has available to spend on education and sport. And anti-imperialist Chavez supporter Maradonna is correctly recognised as one of the best football players in the history of the sport, for his stunning, magnificent and inspired handball against England followed by an acceptable second goal later on which unfortunately was still well within the technical rules of the game. Socialist intellectual and popstar John Barnes is bang on when he says that England will not win the World Cup until they adopt Socialism -- just compare the individualistic, Thatcherite millionaires of the Premier League with the austere, cooperative and hardworking German football team. No contest.
You can’t buy the skills to be good at football. You can’t be at an advantage from having a western diet that allows you to bulk up and ram through your opposing team or from have the money to buy the helmets or education you need to understand it all. It’s instinctive, demands self-sacrifice, commitment, vision and hope when you’re losing, and teamwork. That’s why football is socialist and the nutter right-wingers in the USA are right to hate it!
Here are some of the best moments in football Socialists have enjoyed over the years,

Just a few days into the new coalition Government and it’s clear that the Con Dem’s planned “new politics” are even more undemocratic than the old. Not only have the Lib Dems surrendered PR but their coalition with the Tories now wants to make it harder to hold Parliament to account.
Vince Cable outlines his three priorities - brains, brains, brains.
The Con Dem coalition is planning to change the rules governing the dissolution of Parliament. The status quo is that if 50% plus one MP votes to dissolve the Government, it is forced to resign and call new elections. This happened in 1979 when the Labour Government lost a vote of confidence. The changes the Con Dem’s want to make is to raise the limit, so it has to be 55% of MP’s who vote in no confidence for the Government to be forced to call new elections. This means that a Government could stay in power with only 46% till the next election.
Ah yes, I see what you've done there, very good.
The diagram below outlines the reasoning behind this rule change – if the Liberals broke from the Tories, and allied with all the other parties in calling for new elections they still would not be able to dissolve Parliament, despite having 53% of the seats (which represents 64% of the vote). The only way Parliament can be dissolved is if the Con Dem coalition votes to dissolve it. This effectively means the Tories can stop any dissolution of their Government – and allow the Tories to run a “Zombie Government” which cannot be removed but cannot pass legislation either. This is far from the Zombie Government SSY has long hoped for, a Government based on a fundamental and irreversible shift in brains from the living to the undead.
On that note, the new fixed term Parliament David Cameron has introduced has decided on a date for the next elections in 5 years (which the Tories would be able to hang on to thanks to the new 55% limit). Fixed term parliaments can be progressive, because they remove the option of a ruling party calling an election later or early for their own advantage. This time however a small oversight appears to have been made – the next General Election has been called for the same day of the Scottish Parliamentary election. That means Scots will be asked to vote for their FPTP MP for Westminster, their FPTP MSP for Holyrood, and their List MSP for Holyrood.
It’s a disaster waiting for happen, a repeat of the 2007 fiasco where hundreds of thousands of votes were spoiled because people confused the vote for the council with the vote for Parliament. It was that disaster which forced them to hold the council elections separately from Holyrood. It now appears that logic has been thrown out the window. Also, it will mean that a Scottish Parliamentary election will take place with the backdrop of a British General election, which will confuse and skew the debate. Expect thousands of Scots to vote Labour for Holyrood who would otherwise not do so to “keep the Tories out” of a Parliament they have no chance of controlling.
Scotland should have it’s own Parliament, with full powers, no Crown involvement, and full PR in an Independent Socialist Republic – where MSP’s would only be paid the average wage of a skilled worker, and both they and the Government would be recallable. That’s a far cry from the undemocratic gerrymandering the Con Dems are trying to introduce.
After 13 years out of Government -- the bastards are back. And in the ironies or ironies, it was with the help of Guardian readers; the Tories are in power thanks to a leg up from the Lib Dems, millions of people who voted for the abolition of Trident and other progressive policies will now know that their votes have in fact counted towards keeping an Eton schoolboy in office.
David Cameron has risen from riches to riches, in a fairytale story of triumphing by paying to bypass any kind of small adversity. With only a ragband crew of the Murdoch press, billionaire tax exiles and 200 years of ingrained privilege, the Tories have been able to scrape back into power in coalition with people called Tarquin who wear sandals and like Tibet.
Liberal Democrat Federal Council meets to discuss coalition plans
SSY is already negotiating it’s own constitutional solution to the crisis, by proposing a land swap -- England shall receive Dumfries, Clydesdale and Tweedale (the only Scottish constituency to vote in a Tory) and in exchange Scotland will offer political asylum to the North of England.
On a more serious note, this development will put the national question back to the top of the agenda in Scotland. After only voting in one Tory MP, Scotland is again run by a Tory prime minister -- the Liberal support does not increase the legitimacy of the Government by much, and very few Liberal voters in Scotland will back what the Lib Dems have done. The devolved Scottish Parliament will not be able to stop the cuts -- Westminster decide the budget, and the Tories planned budget cuts will disproportionately hammer Scotland due to the higher % of public sector workers -- itself a product of de-industrialisation under Thatcher.
Only Independence and Socialism will give Scotland the democracy it’s citizens deserve and the protection against poverty, cuts, low pay, and unemployment the next Tory/Liberal Government will bring. The SSY is the only group of young Socialists in Scotland which has fought consistently since our founding 10 years ago for independence as a necessary part of the struggle for Socialism in Scotland.
The You Tube clip below of William Wallace being tortured by an evil unionist bastard wearing a Santa hat accurately depicts SSY’s strongly held feelings on the issue of Tory rule of Scotland.
Well he’s finally done it, like a bullied teenager forced into taking weed by his peers, Gordon Brown has bottled it and given into pressure. He has resigned after spending only 3 years in the job he has lusted after for practically his entire political career. After taking Labour to it’s worst result since 1983, Brown has taken the hint and left No 10.
Fuck it, I don't care anymore. You're all FUCKING BIGOTS.
A year ago, the Tories would have been ecstatic if Brown had stepped down -- now they’re running about like headless chickens, terrified that the one major stumbling block between a Lib-Lab coalition has been removed. Despite the Lib Dems being closer to the Labour party in the political views of their electorate and MP’s, it was clear that there was no way Nick Clegg was going to prop up a Labour PM as popular as the bastard offspring of Myra Hindley and Saddam Hussein. Brown was despised in Middle England due to his being Scottish public relations difficulties.
Now with Brown out the way, a deal between the Lib Dems and Labour -- while not ideal -- is a lot more credible. There’s the obvious attack that’s going to come from the Tories and their allies about one unelected PM being replaced with another, but ultimately it’s the politicians who make the decisions, like it or lump it. And a youthful Blairite PM like David Miliband might not be too unpopular in the Home Counties marginals Labour need to retake in the future.
The biggest stumbling block left after Brown’s departure now though is the arithmetic. Despite taking 52% of the popular vote across the UK, Labour and the Lib Dems together do not have over half the seats. In order to form a stable Government, they would need to put together support from an eclectic mix of Democratic Unionists, Irish, Welsh and Scottish Nationalists.
While the Tories Unionist allies are non-existent, the Democratic Unionists do have 8 MP’s in Northern Ireland who could be potential kingmakers in a coalition. Whilst they have officially said they are not opposed in principle to a Lib Lab pact, they are clearly on the right of the political spectrum and would fit more comfortably with the Conservatives.The arithmetic still does not add up though. A Lab-Lib-SDLP pact would not have a majority and neither would a Tory-DUP pact. The SNP, Plaid Cymru, Alliance and Green MP’s would hold real power over decisions.
There’s another issue which makes an elaborate coalition unstable -- English Nationalist resentment. While the Tories may have taken only 36% across the UK, in England they have a clear lead of 40% to Labour’s 28%. If a Government dependent on Scottish Labour, Scottish Liberal and other Nationalist MP’s from within the UK enact cuts on English public services you can bet the Tories, UKIP and BNP will attack them for enforcing a dictatorship on the English electorate.
Lets hope the SNP negotiate to ensure these scenes are never repeated again.
There’s already been discontent brewing south of the border on the issue of Labour’s legitimacy to govern England -- in 2005 Labour got less votes than the Tories in England for example, but more seats. This is alongside the West Lothian question where Scottish MP’s can vote on decisions that only affect England, and the Barnett formula where Scots receive more funding per head in public services than their English counterparts.
A lot of these concerns are pish -- 52% of English voters did support the Liberals and Labour, and the Barnett formula does not take into account Scotland’s massive subsidies to Westminster in Oil money. But the principle would remain -- Labour and the Lib Dem’s would rely on Scottish , Irish and Welsh MP’s to govern. Any negotiations to spare cuts from their respective parts of the UK would be attacked in the Tory press as robbing from England.
This would be a difficult situation for a Government in normal circumstances, but this is a Government that needs to enact brutal public service cuts the likes of which have not been seen in generations. When the schools, hospitals, and jobs start to go you can bet MP’s in marginal seats will feel the pressure to defy the whip to save their own skins. A lost by-election or two could scupper the entire Government’s spending plans. This is not a stable environment to make the UK a profitable place for capitalism again.
That’s why the Tories (and probably the markets too) are desperate to keep the Lib Dems in a pact with them. They are the most stable offer on the table, with both parties having a clear majority when put together -- and enough breathing space in case any MP’s rebel. But right now it appears the Lib Dems know they won’t get this chance again to hold so much power, and are demanding a voting system that takes their support into account. That could mean the end forever for single party Tory rule, and it’s whether or not that’s an acceptable price to pay for one stable Government that the Tories are mulling over just now.
Armando Iannucci already described in detail what a hung parliament might be like in 1997,
Despite an incoming Tory Government ready to enact a brutal austerity Government, possibly in coalition with Liberal Democrat’s selling out, there are a few good results from the general election worth mentioning. A small number of left-wing and Green MP’s were elected to Westminster that are worth a mention.
Caroline Lucas, already elected to the European Parliament was elected as MP for Brighton Pavillion. She’s the first Green MP to be elected to Westminster, and was a welcome surprise when it was expected any non-mainstream party MP to be elected would come from the far or radical right – BNP or UKIP. Lucas says she won’t go into coalition with the mainstream parties but will decide how to vote on a case by case basis. Lucas and the English Greens are well to the Left of the political ground in England, backing the legalisation of cannabis and an increase in the minimum wage – 2 policies SSY supports and has campaigned for. It’s just a shame the Scottish Greens are nowhere near as radical as their English counterparts.
Most of the other good guys in Parliament are left-wingers in the Labour Party. The best known is probably John McDonnell, who tried to challenge Gordon Brown for the leadership of the Labour Party unsuccessfully. He’s the chair of the Labour Representation Committee, which is a campaign to push the Labour Party back to it’s Socialist and Trade Union roots. SSY doesn’t believe you can reclaim the Labour Party back to the Left, but we support folk like John McDonnell who are part of the few remaining Socialists in Labour. That said we’re unhappy about McDonnell’s support for the digital economy bill, which criminalises people who download films or music off the net! Poor show John.
Two other goodies are Katy Clark and Ian Lavery. Katy is the MP for North Ayrshire and Arran, and was a supporter of John McDonnell’s leadership bid. Katy is also a member of the Socialist Campaign group in Labour, and has voted against Trident, restricting abortion rights, 90 days detention and ID cards.
Lavery was elected as the Labour MP for Wansbeck, but previously served as the President of the National Union of Mineworkers. He was attacked in the run up to the election in the Daily Mail, for saying he had “absolutely no respect for the police” for their actions during the miners strike. Nice one Ian.
A few other folk who weren’t elected but deserve an honourable mention – Eamonn McCann, a living legend of the Irish civil rights movement stood for the Foyle constituency and got 7.7%, taking votes off the Shinners and the SDLP and coming ahead of the Ulster Unionists and Conservatives. McCann was active in the Northern Irish Civil Rights Association and was present during the Bloody Sunday massacre. Eamonn’s vote shows the Left can pick up support outside of the tribal system of Northern Irish politics – and despite Sinn Fein trying to censor his electoral material.
Another unlucky candidate was Salma Yaqoob. Salma is the leader of Respect, and was their best placed candidate for election to Westminster. She stood on a platform of building more social housing and withdrawing troops from Afghanistan.
She came very close to being elected in her constituency of Birmingham Hall Green in 2005 – and it was hoped with the collapse in the Labour vote and the sustained community work she’s done in the constituency where she is also a councillor, she might be the first female Muslim MP to be elected. Despite a swing to her, and an increase of 14% in her vote Salma came second. Respect were always going to have a harder time in an election where the war was not as big an issue as it was in 2005, but hopefully this won’t be the last we see of Salma.
Since 2001 the BNP have made steady inroads into British politics, gradually building up a significant base in local councils, and expanding slowly but surely into other arenas – winning a seat on the Greater London Assembly and their highpoint last year, winning 2 seats in the European Parliament. It’s almost been a grudging acceptance by some people on the Left that the BNP’s growth could at best only be slowed in the short term, due to their high profile and the constant anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim sentiment in the British press. So it’s not surprising a lot of folk looked with dread to what was going to happen in Barking and Dagenham, the BNP’s stronghold.
It’s where the BNP’s leader Nick Griffin was standing against New Labour hack Margaret Hodge – who gave the BNP ammunition with her comments on housing – and it’s also where the BNP were the official opposition on the council. They had a real chance of both taking Hodge’s seat and taking control of the council – the BNP were throwing the kitchen sink at Barking, and telling their members and supporters they were on the verge of a breakthrough.
Instead they were annihilated – to the surprise of BNP supporters and antifascists alike. They lost all their council seats in Barking and Dagenham – Labour now hold all 51 council seats. Griffin’s vote was also down from 2005. He came nowhere close to challenging Hodge, and finished third behind the Tories. In his speech conceding defeat, Griffin said that they had lost the battle for Barking, and that the area was “colonised”
The BNP’s misfortunes weren’t limited to Barking and Dagenham – they lost councillors all across the country, and are down from 45 councillors to 19 (though English council elections don’t happen all at once, they have other councillors who weren’t up for election).
This result might seem surprising given the BNP got their best result, in terms of votes a couple of nights ago – over half a million. But we don’t know how much of this increase is due to the BNP’s ability to field many more candidates than they were able to in 2005. For example the BNP vote in Scotland in 2005 was only 1,590 but jumped up to almost 9000. On the face of it this looks like a fantastic boost for them, but in reality it is largely due to being able to increase the number of seats they can stand in. They only stood in 2 in 2005 (Glasgow Central and Glasgow North East), in 2010 they stood in 13.
The only direct comparison we can make then, is the vote in Glasgow Central and Glasgow North East – and in both seats, the BNP vote was down from 2005. It’s particularly surprising in the North East, where there’s a lot of concern about immigration and asylum seekers and the BNP nearly held on to their deposit in the by-election last year.
These results couldn’t come at a worse time for Griffin, who has already had to deal with internal difficulties in the BNP – like Mark Collet allegedly trying to kill him, mutiny in the Scottish BNP, their website owner walking off, as well as other discontent around Jim Dowson’s practical ownership of the party. The BNP’s electoral meltdown will inflame the anti-Griffin opposition in the BNP, who may now feel that Griffin’s holocaust denying past is baggage that the BNP can no longer carry, and a new leader more in line with the image of the “new” BNP must be found.
The smarter BNP activists will be asking why their vote collapsed. The reality is that across the UK people who were willing to vote BNP as a protest vote in elections were Labour were certain to win will no longer do so under threat of a Tory Government. From Glasgow North East, to Stoke, to Barking, traditional Labour areas are prepared to hold their nose and vote for Labour to defy the Tories.
Setbacks for the BNP of course aren’t solely attributable to the threat of a Tory Government – it’s likely that thousands of voters would have gone to the polls to vote in fear of what a BNP council would look like, and would have probably chosen Labour as the far lesser evil.
The setbacks for the BNP shouldn’t make us complacent though – the BNP’s ideas still have an an echo among hundreds of thousands of people, and relying on a Tory Government to scare people into voting Labour to keep the BNP out is no long term strategy. If people won’t cast protest votes for the BNP out of fear of the Tories, they won’t cast protest votes for the Left or the Greens. If Labour don’t stand up to the Tories the BNP could posture themselves as the real party against cuts, for British Jobs for British Workers etc.
This shouldn’t mean we don’t celebrate though – it’s squeaky bum time for Griffin and co, whose seats in the European Parliament now look a lot more fragile than before. If the Tories do take power, they may do to the BNP what Thatcher did to the NF – steal their rhetoric on immigration, and steal their votes. And in Scotland they will have a very interesting time upholding “British” identity if the union foists upon us a Tory Government we didn’t vote for.
Having trouble with a break up? Most people just do the decent thing and degenerate into alcoholism, but cockney hardman and wank Danny Dyer thinks you should go one step further and slash your ex’s face, so no one else will fancy her.
When you’ve stopped being a nice pair of tits for Zoo readers, all that’s left is to cut you. Danny also congratulates Cheryl Cole for winning sexiest women of the year award, but says he might only shag her out of sympathy.
Sources close to Cheryl have told SSY that she is inconsolable at not being able to get a proper shag out a sexist arsehole and Z list celeb Danny, best known to SSY readers as Kent Paul out of GTA: Vice City.
Dyer’s comments about slashing women are gonna be picked up by thousands of young men across the UK who read Zoo, and will think it’s acceptable to abuse a woman if she decides she’s not your property anymore.To complain about Dyer, send a message to the Press Complaints Commission here. SSY is gutted to see Danny Dyer drop his standards so low, we’re hoping Danny will return to some of the quality entertainment he has provided us all before, as outlined below:
