draw-brothersTHE Edlington “Devil Boys” are making front-page news in the Mail. Names have been kept hidden from the great unwashed to protect the victims and the guilty – although how long before the web gets hold of them?

Pictures: Edlington Devil Boys

But still the Mail screams:

NAME THE DEVIL BOYS – WE MUST NOT LET THEM HIDE

Exclusive: Parents of tortured boys describe their terrible ordeal… and call for the attackers to be treated like the killers of James Bulger

It’s an exclusive. Or as the Daily Mirror says:

Tortured boys fear their tormentors will ‘finish them off’ when they get out – EXCLUSIVE

Penelope Cruz Does Ten From Nine At The 16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Award: In Photos

WITH Penelope Cruz and Marion Cotillard to the 16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles. No rain. Christina Hendrick’s portico was not required. Old Mr Anorak, our patron, wants the ladies to know that he appreciates their efforts to come as a 2-4-1 package deal but, laws such as they are, and Utah and Mecca so far removed from Anorak Towers, he can only marry one at a time. Rest assured that each marriage will be thrillingly short and mutually rewarding:

Tiger Woods’ British ‘Lover’ Emma Rotherham: In Pictures

emma-rotherhamTIGER Woods’s “secret British lover” is, allegedly, Emma Rotherham. Ever since the rumours of a British shag hit the media, we’ve been waiting for the denials. Katie Price. Cherie Blair. Sarah Ferguson. Edwina Currie. Amy Winehouse. Not one of them denied shagging Tiger Woods.

Tiger Woods’ Women (Alleged)

But now we learn that the secret lover is Emma Rotherham, a “curvy” 42-year-old blonde British mum of two who Tiger paid $500,000 to not shag ‘n’ tell. Emma is the 19th hole linked to Woods. They met at Orlando’s Blue Martini club. Emmas was wearing “a tight black jump suit”.

Tiger Woods’ Women (Alleged)

Says a source:

“Emma was his most recent mistress. They had a very, very passionate relationship and she has dozens of text messages and emails from him. Some were even sent while Tiger was trying to patch things up with his wife Elin. If those came out they’d bury him. He absolutely adored Emma and loved the sex. So did she.

“And as she lived near his Florida home in Isleworth she was always on call. They were at it all the time. Emma said Tiger was a great lover. But he never wore a condom, and she didn’t take any precautions.”

Victoria Beckham’s Private Dick Keep Tabs On David in Milan: Pictures

FRESH from having had his genitals groped by Vinnie Jones impressionist Elena Di Cioccio, David Beckham was spotted in Milan with his wife, the ever fragrant Victoria Beckham. As American soccer fans know, Dave is playing for the ACs of Milan, and has taken to posing in pants. Elena wanted to see if it was true and Dave’s balls were made of gold, as his wife had boasted. Now Vicky is in Milan, albeit undercover. Does Dave knows it his wife behind him, or does he think it’s the store detective or a private dick – not that Dave’s got one of those:

The Truth About The Edlington Devil Brothers: Vile Pictures

court-scetchIN Edlington, Doncaster, two brothers tortured two boys. They sexually abused them. One boy almost died. It’s a rare case. But can it be used as an emblem for a bigger debate. A voracious media and a complicit David Cameron get to work.

With no real names given to protect he victims as well as the guilty, the tabloids get to rebranding them. They are the “DEVIL BOYS

THE Sun (front page): “Fury as Devil Boys get 5 years”

NEXT TIME THEY’LL KILL – Victim’s dad warns – Never let them out

THE father of a boy left close to death after being tortured by two devil brothers yesterday warned they will kill if released. The shocked dad had watched in court as the 11 and 12-year-old – who had a “Beware Of The Kids” sign outside their home –

Says he:

“Never let them out. Next time they will kill. I am certain of that. I don’t think it will ever be safe to release them. I am convinced they will do it again. They loved what they did. You could see it on their faces in court. They were smiling. They are bloodthirsty.”

Munir Haussain And Frances Inglis: Law, Rights, Wrongs And Justice

inglisMUNIR Hussain is free. He badly beat a burglar Frances Inglis is jailed for life. She killed her son. He was painfully ill.

MUNIR Hussain is back at his home in Desborough Park Road, High Wycombe, after being freed from Bullingdon Prison in Oxfordshire. Hussain, 53, had his sentence reduced at the Court of Appeal in London. Mr Hussain and his brother Tokeer attacked Walid Salem, one of a gang of burglars who had broken into his family home and threatened to kill them. He hit the man with a cricket bat.

Salem suffered a fractured skull, ribs, jaw, and finger and lasting brain damage.

Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge, sitting at the Court of Appeal in London with two other judges, replaced 53-year-old Hussain’s 30-month prison term with one of a year, and ordered that it should be suspended for two years.

Tokeer had his 39-month jail term reduced to two years and could be released in five months.

And Mr Hussain is media star. Those front pages:

“MERCY – dad you hit a burglar set free by court. JUDGE SENSE SENSE AT LAST” – The Sun

“Freed, man who battered raider with cricket bat” – Daily Express

“COMMON SENSE JUSTICE AT LAST” – Daily Mail

The Judgement

Retired judge Paul Firth believes Munir Hussain went beyond the use of “reasonable force” as the burglars had already fled.

He said: “Munir Hussain was perfectly entitled to feel angry, to go running after the burglars and then to detain him using what-ever force was necessary until the police arrived. But there were two against one and breaking a cricket bat in three places over somebody’s head doesn’t sound like reason-able force to me. I think the jury got it right in convicting them and I think the Court of Appeal has been more than merciful in suspending Munir’s sentence.” – Mirror

The Appeal

Delivering the verdict, Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge called the case “truly exceptional”. He added: “The plain, simple reality is that Munir Hussain was acting under the continuing influence of extreme provocation.

“Involvement in this serious violence can only be understood as a response to the dreadful and terrifying ordeal and the emotional anguish which he had undergone.

“His family had effectively been kidnapped in their own home. He feared for their lives and the honour of his wife and daughter.” – Sun

The Campaign

Mr Hussain smiled before hugging relatives as he left Bullingdon Prison, in Oxfordshire, yesterday afternoon where he had shared a cell with his brother. Earlier his other brother Qadeer, 45, called for an overhaul of the law to clarify home owners’ rights. He said: “Liberal policies have reached a point where Britain has become a Third World country in the sense that the civilised population is not protected.

“There needs to be clarification of where the home owner stands, where the victim stands and where the thugs stand.” – Express

Common sense and true British justice, says the Mail

The Police

Sir Paul Stephenson, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, said that those who put themselves in personal danger to thwart criminals were heroes and that society was all the better for their bravery. He insisted that he was not commenting directly on the Hussain case, but his remarks will be interpreted as supportive of a change in the law. – Times

The Ass

Deborah Orr: “A life sentence for Frances Inglis makes no sense – but freeing Munir Hussain does”

Frances Inglis has been found guilty of murder and attempted murder – after her second, successful attempt at killing her 22-year-old son with a heroin ¬overdose as he lay, brain-damaged, in his hospital bed. I have no quibble with that. In fact, I’m wholeheartedly against a change in the law to make “mercy killing” legal.

But Inglis has been sentenced to life imprisonment, and I can’t imagine what purpose such a sentence serves. It’s true that she has been told she must serve a minimum of nine years, but even that seems steep – and anyway, the handing down of a life sentence, however theoretical, must “mean something”. What?…

The law looks foolish when it hands down a life sentence, however “symbolic”, to a person who killed her child in part because she couldn’t bear the thought of him dying slowly, of hunger and thirst, after his life-support was switched off. More emphasis on mercy is needed in this case, surely, and less on killing.

The Politics

In the wake of Hussain’s imprisonment, the Conservatives proposed changes to the law on self-defence so that only protective actions by householders that are “grossly disproportionate” would result in arrest and prosecution. Yet this was never a clear-cut story of self-defence, and it is unlikely that Hussain would have escaped legal action even under the reforms suggested by the Tories. After managing to break free from his captors, he chased the gang and, with the aid of his brother, caught one and beat him with a cricket bat so badly that he was deemed mentally unfit to stand trial for the serious crime he had allegedly committed.

Since this happened some distance from Hussain’s home, it is likely that he would have failed the “grossly disproportionate” test. However, the fact that the alleged burglar got away with it – while Hussain was jailed for 30 months – merely compounded the sense of injustice felt across the country. Some believe he should never have been convicted at all; but under the law, he was guilty of an offence – and vigilantism cannot be condoned. – The Telegraph

Jedward And Vanilla Ice Perform At National TV Awards: Pictures

FOR those of unable to comprehend the limited scope of British telly, there was the National Television Awards last night, an AGM for mediocrity starring Jedward and Vanilla Ice. The stars are extras in the big telly production, unsure whether to be celebrities and do as expected or to remind the viewers and their peers that they are actors pretending to be the person who won the National vote. Yep, National – slap that word in to give the do a new layer of faux up-its-own-arse credibility. Had Katie Price won she’d have dithered between eating a gonad in her professional I’m A Celebrity life and, er, well, eating a gonad in her private life. But you get the idea…

This is Katia’s “amazing tale”.

There are “red-hot pictures” of Katia inside the paper. But they turn out to be not all that hot, more lukewarm. We see Katia in her knickers; Katia on the bed in her nightie; and Katia drinking a glass of apple juice in her bath.

One page before that you can see Chelsea with her nipples out. But, Chelsea is not front-page news because she has never done painting by numbers with a Rolling Stone nor frotted a Scandinavian fish slice called Basshunter, aka Jonas Altberg, on the telly (pictures of his orgy here).

Susan Boyle on Oprah: First pictures of SuBo on U.S. talk show as fears grow over her erratic behaviour

Ben Todd and Sara Nathan have been watching the telly.

The first pictures emerged today of Susan Boyle’s much-hyped appearance on Oprah as fears grew over her increasingly unusual behaviour.

This alleged unusual behaviour was Boyle sucking her thumb as a joke and pratting about with a mop. Unusual for an international pop star, undoubtedly. Normal behaviour would see the shun the fans, demand only red M&Ms in her pill box and shag loads groupies while off her face on smack.

Madeleine McCann: Amaral ‘Fala Com McCanns’ And Ten More Years

FIRST the good news for the voracious media in the never-ending story of Our Maddie, as the Daily Star says:

MCCANN FIGHT MAY RAGE ON FOR 10 YEARS

After ten more years of Our Maddie, the Star will have to return to Katie Price updates. But ten years is not too shabby. If the Daily Express can do it with Princess Diana for a decade, the Star’s sister paper can darn well do it for Our Maddie. It’s the least it can do.

Former detective Goncalo Amaral has vowed to take the fight to get his controversial book published to the European Court of Human Rights if he loses his current case.

But legal experts say that process could take a decade. Mr Amaral’s book claims Madeleine died in her family’s holiday flat in Praia da Luz, Portugal.

British Suicide Bombers Strike For Better And More Plentiful Virgins

virgins1IN Suicide bombers to strike again, Yampster brings chilling news of BOOM and Bust:

SUICIDE bombers in Britain are set to begin a three-day strike on Monday in a dispute over the number of virgins they are entitled to in the afterlife. Emergency talks with Al Qaeda management have so far failed to produce an agreement.

The unrest began last Tuesday when Al Qaeda announced that the number of virgins a suicide bomber would receive after his death will be cut by 25% next January from 72 to only 54. The rationale for the cut was the increase in recent years of the number of suicide bombings and a subsequent shortage of virgins in the afterlife.

The suicide bombers’ union, the British Organisation of Occupational Martyrs (or B.O.O.M.) responded with a statement that this was unacceptable to its members and immediately balloted for strike action.

General secretary Abdullah Amir told the press, “Our members are literally working themselves to death in the cause of jihad. We don’t ask for much in return but to be treated like this by management is a kick in the teeth.”

Mr Amir accepted the limited availability of virgins but pointed out that the cutbacks were expected to be borne entirely by the workforce and not by management. “Last Christmas Abu Hamza alone was awarded an annual bonus of 25,000 virgins,” complains Amir. “And you can be sure they’ll all be pretty ones too. How can Al – Qaeda afford that for members of the management but not 72 for the people who do the real work?”

Speaking from a shed somewhere in the West Midlands, where he currently resides, Al Qaeda chief executive Osama bin Laden explained,

“We sympathise with our workers’ concerns but Al – Qaeda is simply not in a position to meet their demands. They are simply not accepting the realities of modern day jihad, in a competitive marketplace. Thanks to Western depravity, there is now a chronic shortage of virgins in the afterlife. It’s a straight choice between reducing expenditure and laying people off. I don’t like cutting wages but I’d hate to have to tell 3,000 of my staff that they won’t be able to blow themselves up.”

He defended management bonuses by claiming these were necessary to attract good fanatical clerics. “How am I supposed to attract the best people if I can’t compete with the private sector?” asked Mr.Bin Laden.

Talks broke down this morning after management’s last ditch proposal of a virgin sharing scheme was rejected outright after a failure to agree on orifice allocation quotas. One virgin, who refused to be named, was quoted as saying “I’ll be buggered if I’m agreeing to anything like that…it’s too much to swallow”.

Unless some sort of agreement is reached over the weekend, suicide bombers will put down explosives at midday on Monday. Most branches are supporting the strike. Only the North London branch, which has a different union, is likely to continue working.

However, some members of that branch will only be using explosives from the waist down, in order to express solidarity with their striking brethren.
