chump

The above chump is called Jeremy Hunt, the new Conservative Sports and Culture Secretary, and, concerning crowd behaviour at the World Cup, he said he was........

'...incredibly encouraged by the example set by the England fans. I mean, not a single arrest for a football-related offense, and the terrible problems that we had in Heysel and Hillsborough in the 1980s seem now to be behind us''.

Heysel was hooliganism at its' very worst and Liverpool football "supporters" were responsible for it. Hillsborough was unforgivable botched policing against innocent football fans. To mention both Heysel and Hillsborough in the same context is appalling insensitivity and ignorance from a Government minister.

Mr. Hunt has quickly apologised, but the damage has already been done. You know, as Liverpool fans we've spent the last 21 years trying to reverse the misguided opinion of the right-wing Establishment. And just when you think you're getting somewhere, a dickhead like this spouts shit like that.

What's the point?

The point is we keep on telling the truth. Generations to come will appreciate the injustice and cover-up of Hillsborough, even if this one won't.
