Cant say I was a fan of his writing, or of his musical taste, but at least he was a character. Music journalists these days are so faceless.

Banging on about … Racist, right-wing scum
By Steven Wells (2000)

The British, eh? Violent, pig-ignorant, xenophobic bastards.

Of course, when we say British we mean English, obviously. Drunken dog’s arse-faced morons. And when we say English, we actually mean the ones that follow the national football team, naturally. Shit-eating, racist skunkfuckers. But when we speak of England fans, we actually only mean the ones who chant racist and anti-IRA songs, the ones who spit on Moroccan women, the ones who wipe their huge arses on foreign flags, the ones who song, “I’d rather be a Paki than a Turk.” Micro-cocked, sub-human slime.

Let’s get it straight. The problem isn’t the English. The problem isn’t football. The problem isn’t even English football fans. The problem is racists and – at their core – a few score Nazi vermin.

But what’s the solution? Well, it isn’t the introduction of birching. It isn’t manners being taught in schools instead of maths. Ant it isn’t banning England from all future international competitions. The solution is to take passports away from Nazis. And Sun readers. And Conservative voters. In fact, nobody right-wing should ever be allowed to travel abroad ever again. If they ‘love’ England so much, they should stay here and rot.

You see, it’s not an English problem. It’s not a football problem. It’s a right wing problem. So let’s hobble the bastards. Literally. Cut their fetlocks with a cut-throat razor, make bonfires of their passports and fit them with high-explosive collars that’ll blow their vile racist-shite-spewing heads off if they stray more than five miles from home.

“But what about their human rights? I hear you squeal. Fuck their human rights. Right wingers aren’t human. They are pond scum, microbes, mere filth. In fact, thinking about it, why don’t we just gas the bastards?

“But that would make us just as bad as them!”.

Shut it liberal! God! It’s just that sort of woolly-minded politically correct do-gooder thinking that led to the horrible scenes in the low countries a couple of weeks back. It’s time for action!

If you have a racist friend, its time for that friendship to end!

That's an entertaining piece Kevin. It reminds me of the trouble I've gotten myself into on the Michael Jackson thread!
