“****in failures in a country of failures. Its nae good blamin it oan the English fir colonising us. Ah don't hate the English. They're just ****ers. We are colonised by ****ers. We can't even pick a decent, vibrant healthy society to be colonised by. No..we are ruled by effete arseholes. What does that make us? The lowest of the low, the scum of the earth. The most wretched servile, miserable, pathetic trash that was ever shat intae creation. Ah don't hate the English. They just git oan wis the ****e thev got. Ah hate the Scots.”

DRUNKEN Liverpool fans viciously attacked rescue workers as they tried to revive victims of the Hillsborough soccer disaster, it was revealed last night.

Police officers, firemen and ambulance crew were punched, kicked and urinated upon by a hooligan element in the crowd.
Some thugs rifled the pockets of injured fans as they were stretched out unconscious on the pitch.
In one shameful episode, a gang of Liverpool fans noticed the blouse of a girl trampled to death in the crush had risen above her breasts.

As a policeman struggled in vain to revive her, they jeered: “ Throw her up here and we will **** her.”

Sheffield officers – stung by criticism of themselves and their boss Superintendent Roger Marshall – hit back yesterday to reveal their side of the story.
As the death of a 14-year-old boy brought the toll to 95, cops claimed their rescue effort was hampered by hooligans tanked up at a three-hour boozing session.
One furious policeman who witnessed the disaster on Saturday stormed: “To paint all the Liverpool fans lily-white is wrong.
“As we struggled in appalling conditions to save lives, fans standing further up the terrace were openly urinating on us and the bodies of the dead.
“And as policemen on the pitch tried to savethe injured they were hampered by other Liverpool fans kicking and punching them.”
His story was confirmed by Police Federation rep Paul Middup, who revealed how several of his members broke down and wept as they told him what they had witnessed.
“I don’t doubt these stories are true,” he said. “I am sick of hearing of how good the crowd were.
“Some arrived tanked up and the situation faced by officers was simply terrifying.”
But Pc Middup stressed that only a small minority of the Liverpool fans behaved so badly
Most police officers refused to be named because of the impending full scale inquiry.
But a high ranking officer at the ground said: “They were just acting like animals. My men faced a double hell – the disaster and the fury of the fans who attacked us.”
South Yorkshire ambulance chief Don Page revealed one of his men was so badly assaulted by drunken fans he needed hospital treatment. A fireman was also attacked.
A second police officer added: “As one young officer gave the kiss of life and heart massage he was given a savage kick by a lout.”
A third policeman said: “There was a lot of pilfering.
“Personal possessions were missing as well as cash. People were picking up coins which had fallen from victims’ pockets. It was sickening.”
The police claims were backed by Sheffield MP Irvine Patnick, who spoke to officers on duty in the mortuary hours after the tragedy.
“They told me they were hampered, harassed, punched, kicked and urinated on by Liverpool fans,” he said.
“I have kept quiet about this because I didn’t want to inflame a delicate situation.
“But these are the stories told to me by policemen just after it had happened. I saw the bruising on their bodies.”
