We could have worked out the last bit ourselves, but thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsimButtHitsASix Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I would be seething about that if they hadn't kept the Saddam Hussein quote. That just made it hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He becomes befuddled in his first sentence and thinks the deficit in Scotland is a mere £15 million. If someone told him it was actually billions these days, we could be one roaster down. Then another boy complaining about a local sculpture, then a would be Solidarity Councillor (not going to happen) having a really obscure rant about a current Councillor, then some boy not happy about the DWP call centre and wanting all 650 MPs to investigate this never before seen example of a government department being shit, and so on. If the letter pages reads any worse than this paragraph I'd be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same three or four people arguing with one another, and occasionally Clark Cross from Linlithgow moaning about wind turbines (I'm assuming he probably posts the same letter to multiple local papers) AKA Cross Clark...

Every week it's rammed full of anti-SNP, anti-EU letters with the occasional sprinkling of barely disguised homophobia and/or misogyny, usually from some dithering pensioner who insists on using his old military rank in his title. If you ever wish to cause a meltdown in any of these papers' online comments sections, throw in something about the old age pension being a State Benefit. The offence that causes them is fucking amazing Going to register and mention how the elderly can afford to spunk so much on Xmas decorations for their gardens.

Be sure to remind them that they can only afford this due to the triple lock on their state pension benefits. It'll go down superbly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
