Sounds like the Daily Mail to me!

Ken Bruce you mean?
The Mail readers can all congratulate themselves for wasting their time complaining about something that their favourite paper made up in the first place!

That can't be the real Littlejohn.
He hasn't managed to shoehorn in a single diatribe against poofs.

"Somewhere out there, there’s a baseball cap with her name on it."
I think the word you were looking for was 'BAT' and it's got your name on it, Dick Littlejohn.
Incidentally, if the woman in charge of Harringey Social Services is responsible for the actions of a sick twisted individual, can we blame Littlejohn everytime a BNP thug beats an asian lad to death?
I hope so.

This is nature vs nuture debate
One side, Littlejohn, thinks it is nature that these people lead relatively squalid lives full of difficulties for themselves.
You lot are saying it's nurture - the environment they are in, societies responsibility to offer the chance.
It's not an homogenous group of chavs: Somepeople would fall into the Littlejohn category, some would fall into the !Littlejohn category.
Some people are scum.
Not everyone on benefits is scum, and the scum might be a minority at the end of the bell curve.
But they exist, and are annoying.
Littlejohn exaggerates the case to make a point, and he chooses his examples to back him up.
So do the !Littlejohnners.
The truth is I was iving in a beautiful large house, with a beautiful woman, and 4 great kids, in an idyllic rural setting 48 hours ago.
And now I'm in the cheapest inner city B&B I can find, and I signed on, and my life seems just over. My cash will run out at Xmas, and there is a real risk I shall be on the streets for Xmas.
I am not scum. But I am rubbing shoulders with people who clearly lack some motivation, or self-awareness, engaging voluntarily in behaviour which is self-destructive, self-harming, unproductive in a personal as well as a capitalist sense.
They are fellow humans, and deserve every possible chance and opportunity. If they don't take any of those opportunities, then fuck 'em. They are scum.

That is sooooooooooo fucking wrong.
i mean it seriously too, journalists should never be able to cherry pick the responses they get, it's just escaping from the fact they may be worn from time to time.
fuck that makes me siock. i gave a fully thought out appraisal of his article, perfectly articulated and puntctuated. granted, it was critical, but just as worthy as positive comment. but that gets nowhere near his comments section, instead we get this shit:
"Richard, please, please apply for the PM job. You're the only one left with enough common sense to fix this country from its rottenness."

pffft!!
Fuck I didn't see that one, that's terrible. As well written as the article is, it's clearly laced with bullshit. Considering he walked past this family eating chips, he managed to stare at them long enough to pick out intricate details about them, none of which I believe, other than eating chips. He probably just got shitty and up himself because he had to step off the pavement! oh fucking dear! Shit happens, I walk off the pavemennt intentionally for most people, it's called manners, something which he thinks he has so much of, being of "breeding" and intelligence, but it's quite obvious he is just a stuck up prick.
I judged his own article with the same predjudice attitude that he opens it with, by only reading the first few paragraphs and deciding to wing the rest with my own imagination.

i must say i did the same. i read the first 3 or 4 paqragraphs and then skimmed.
i've read him too many times when he was in the sun (i blame this wholeheartedly on my housemate, i'm an independent or grauniad myself) and it's always horrible horrible hateful digusting shit that has no base in reality in the slightest.

That is such poor quality writing.
I know that I'm not perfect, but this is appalling! I thought that he was being ironic when I read the word "bay-bees", which I assume means babies. Then I got as far as "yuman rites" and I couldn't believe my eyes. Maybe hitting the 'y' key instead of the 'h' key is a simple enough mistake, but it should have been picked up by any simple spell checker. Spelling rights as rites though, that is just ignorant. Doesn't anyone proof-read this rubbish?
I won't go into the actual content as I would just be repeating things that have already been said.
