Best And Worst Of British: Christine Ohuruogu And Gary Glitter
GARY Glitter is at the airport. He’s dressed as a chav, with baseball cap on head and checked scarf pulled up across his face in true precinct gangsta fashion.
He’s the Mirror’s “CLUB CLASS PAEDO”.
Glitter, says the Mail on its front page, is the “WORST OF BRITISH”. Alongside Glitter is the “BEST OF BRITISH”, the Olympic gold medal athlete Christine Ohuruogu. She’s wearing the uniform of the New Britons.
Glitter has served time for abusing two young Vietnamese girls. He is in transit to Blighty via Thailand, but has yet to arrive back home. Is he the worst this country has to offer?
And what of the best, or as the words spread across Ohuruogu’s midriff on the Mirror’s cover spell it out: “THE GREATEST EVER BRITS”?
Ohuruogu is the 24-year old from Stratford, East London, whowas allowed to compete in Beijing having forgotten to attend three out-of-competition drug tests, an offence that carries an automatic life-time ban from the Game.
Little Miss Scatterbrain was, however, allowed to compete after the British Olympic Association rule banning athletes who have missed strict drug-related tests was overturned in the High Court.
She is the best of British. Fact.
And in light of that, we wish the Best of British to one and all…

Fuck off to the Mail! What a wet rag that has become over the years!
Gary Glitter had some stuff on his pc that he should not have had!
He went to prison for it.
Gary Glitter then goes abroad and is arrested for offences - which we don’t know the true and full details about -and he did not get a fair trial.
Incidentally, he did not know that the age of consent was 18 years old in that country either.
A certain Prophet got up to some distasteful crimes as well. With at least one girl that we know about.
Does this stop millions and millions of people going to a gig for him every day of the week?
No!
Gary Glitter will make a come-back as big as Jesus ever could in the near future.
How many people who have met Gary Glitter alone without chaperone
are going to drag him through the rags over the next few months whilst the story is hot?
People will always have their suspicions but ……….

IMO she should have been banned along with Duane (sp?) Chambers. No second chances.
Why should she be the face of the 2012 Olympics and not Rebecca Adlington? or the yachtsmen?
……………………….
Gary G….. while he is despicable and I wish he was still in jail in Vietnam, it makes me laugh that Jackie Smith is bandwagon-jumping about it.
GG is one of many thousands roaming the world but because he is a ‘celebrity’ offender she sees political mileage in trying to ban him from leaving the country. (if he ever gets here) what about all the others? will it apply to them as well?
IMO her grandstanding is nearly as despicable.

Apparently he has suffered a heart attack at Bangkok Airport - honestly where did he think he was, T5?

CuckooClam! Jacqui Smith needs all the air-time she can get.
She won’t have a job soon - so she’s making the most of it.
She may shout about banning people from travelling - but she knows that the proper channels are already there if she could be arsed to get off her fat arse and do something about it.
I wonder if any more DATA files have gone missing from her very very well-run offices recently?
Jacqui Smith wants to set to on the tasks in hand first - before she sets herself any more tasks.
Jacqui - The One Woman Task Force Without Clothes Sense!
I’m going to send the Fashion Police round to her house! Have the Fathers 4 Justice come down off her roof yet? lol

If I was under a death threat I could probably say Paul Gadd and perhaps even Gary Glitter.
I think though that Karona probably had help in typing Ohuruogu.

in response to you Coco………
You said: Gary Glitter had some stuff on his pc that he should not have had!
reply: 4000 child porn pics, explicit sex acts ranging from the age of 2 to 10 …normal is that? excusable even? accidental?
You ranted: Gary Glitter then goes abroad and is arrested for offences - which we don’t know the true and full details about -and he did not get a fair trial.
Reply: 2 girls aged 10 & 11……ooops my mistake. In Vietnam, they might look like 18 years old at 10?
Oh boy, if people like you ran this country, corporal punishment would still be in schools along with wank rooms!!!!
Wake up will you!
