And they call the BNP racist...

Lib Dem parliamentary candidate David Jack resigns after an offensive email was sent from his official email address.

The Liberal Democrats have launched an investigation into the incident after learning about it earlier today.

A spokesperson said: "We were first alerted to this email exchange earlier today. David Jack is no longer a parliamentary candidate for the Liberal Democrats and we have launched an immediate investigation."

Channel 4 News Political Correspondent Cathy Newman has spoken to Mr Jack, who denies sending the email, which contains sexually offensive and racist language - although he admits it did come from his official email account.

Mr Jack said he had been drinking in Stoke last Friday night when the email was sent at 10.24pm but he was nowhere near his home computer in Cheshire.

The email contains the following sentences (we have removed any reference to the recipient to protect their identity, but Channel 4 News can confirm it was sent to someone with a name of Asian extraction).

Warning: you may find the language used extremely offensive.

"...if I was you I would f*** back off to the hills of tora borro (sic), I have your home address, you are f***** sunshine, we shall see who has got balls now you two faced lying f****** paki... your cards f*****... prison awaits you b** boy. Think your (sic) brave, you don't know the line you have crossed you f*** witt (sic) - keep looking over you shoulder theif! (sic)"

Pakistanis Using Fake Documents Try To Enter Great Britain

Five Pakistanis have been arrested while trying to fly to Manchester using fake documents.

They checked into Islamabad airport supposedly enroute to Dubai. Once at the airport, they exchanged documents with five other men who had documents for the Manchester flight. Raja Zia Ul Haq, Raja Fizal Ul Haq, Muhammed Usman, Imran Asgher and Abid Hussain were caught on CCTV and arrested, while the British 'nationals' went on to Dubai.

While we all know that Pakistan is a training ground for terrorism, Sky's home affairs correspondant, Mark Wright said:

"the arrests are unlikey to be terrorism related and are more likely related to an immigration offence"

Who is he trying to kid?

The World Cup, Terrorism and Racism - South Africa

At the time of writing this article there are 142 days to go before the start of the World Cup. As an ardent football fan I eagerly await the first game.

The good thing for me is that I will be watching the matches in the comfort, and more importantly the safety, of my own home.

While South Africa is a beautiful place, it is also a very dangerous place, especially if you are white and a Christian.

90 people a day are killed in South Africa; white people being slaughtered left, right and centre. Don't believe me? Then take a look at a video I previously posted.

Apart from contending with violent blacks, there is also a very real threat of a terror attack. There are many blogs cataloguing the atrocities and in November 2009, the creator of the Zasucks blog, Uhuru Guru, was arrested for showing the real side of South Africa.

“A massive contingent of police from no less than five different specialist units, ranging from Organised Crime, Cyber crime, vehicle theft, etc; raided his home and confiscated all his computer equipment.

This arrest is motivated ultimately by the State.

When they finished the raid, two very grey, shady looking characters sat him down and questioned him about the blog.

Trying to get him out on bail proved impossible. Not only did the police lie, they pulled every trick in the book to prevent him from getting him to court for bail. He arrived at the police station at about 11h00, which gave them more than enough time to process him and get him to court.”

I believe it is because of blogs like Zasucks, that FIFA’s media committee have been given restrictions on reporting.

Restrictions on video packages for websites - Fifa will allow only single photographs and not the presentation of an in-motion set of frames on websites, to avoid interfering with its video rights; news organisations cannot write anything that brings Fifa into disrepute; newspapers cannot send picture content via cellphones - they may only send text.

The South African Media Interest Group (Sanef) representative Raymond Louw said this meant that a journalist who was not covering the tournament might be prevented from covering an unrelated labour dispute at a hotel where teams were based.

‘Unrelated labour dispute’? More likely they don’t want people to see the truth about South Africa.

If I were going to South Africa I would be buying a stab vest from Protektorvest. Better to be safe than sorry.

To any of you going out there to support your team, stay safe and I wish you luck.

There’s a high chance you may need it.
