  The Mail seemed to have started the untrue story and the others just followed suit.

  The last part of this article shows the Mail up to its old tricks of spreading hate.

  Not sure what you mean Howard? You've linked to a Guardian article? Both would appear to be low life scum who have choked whilst attempting to swallow drugs stash while resisting arrest. Good riddance. Hope we managed to harvest some of their organs.

  Ah, Winnie Flabbott, the Mother of our Nation, who in spite of her Grammar School and Cambridge background, seems to be the sort of person the phrase 'thick as mince' was designed for.
