I suspect it's another example of the Police frantically finding a "suitable" law around which to fit a crime. I haven't read the law but would not be surprised if there's a few little caveats in there which allow them to prosecute for this sort of thing. Then again, he might have made reference to the make up of Bradford's community. Who knows. It's mental to jail people for singing or tweeting stuff like that though - the prisons are full enough as it is. Make them do community service and actually achieve something worthwhile. Either that, or in cases like this, stick them in a pub with the families of the victims for 10 minutes. They won't do it again.
And yet the Police destroy evidence relating to peadophiles -and we'll get into trouble if we chant " Nice one Cyril" (Smith)
And yet on this very site we witness every day the hateful rants of a bunch of deluded psycopaths, and no **** gets sent to prison. Are all you ****ers masons or something?
I predict the anti-italian racism displayed on the QUA thread will be thoroughly investigated with mick giving us all up. (I think ER was the only one doing it anyway so it's ok)
