Bob Piper has been a Labour Councillor for the Abbey
Ward in Sandwell, West Midlands, for nine years. He is a lifelong supporter of Aston Villa Football Club and a follower of Yorkshire County Cricket Club.
The views expressed here are mine in a personal capacity, not those of the Labour Party, Sandwell MBC, Aston Villa or Yorkshire County Cricket Club. Get it! Mine... just mine!
Andrew Gilligan, a well balanced individual with a chip on both shoulders, has apparently linked Doreen Lawrence's criticism of Boris Johnson's use of phrases like "piccaninnies" to describe black people to a grant given by the London Development Agency to the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust. What a piece of excrement Gilligan is. Doreen Lawrence heroically stood out and defended the memory of her son and fought against the odds to establish the fact that the investigation into Stephen's murder was marred by racism within the Metropolitan Police Force... and this despicable little toerag wants to imply she was in some way being bribed.
Right-Wing journalism - the last refuge of the scoundrel.

Oh don`t be so naive , everyone knew it was a put up job right from the start and emanating from Compass about the one body who it has been impossible to discover GLA funding ((It is hidden behind trust funds and I fully expect to see it come out in due course). This was the one that refused to get rid of Grell . Given the close links between Mrs. Lawrence and the black left gang it was virtually impossible there would not be a link.=if you looked for it
I admit this is a less important than it might appear .The idea that Doreen Lawrence jumped spontaneously to her feet as a simple bereaved mother to engage in a carefully orchestrated propaganda campaign designed to split London on Racial lines , is however far more ridiculous .
I saw Boris speak the other day and there were plenty of black faces , I have met him with my wife who is also black . You will say , oh that's big of you I know I know '..however , if Boris Johnson has a racist bone in his body I would vote for Ken Livingstone . He quite clearly does not .
Given this obvious fact I have to ask what you think you are doing if it is not lying ? I am starting to wonder if Ken is going to get this is election as Labour`s candidate , Brown must be just hating the sight of this which the country will watch with horror
If that illiterate rant made one ha'porth of sense, I might even reply to it... but sadly, it doesn't. It is just gibberish. Try writing it down on paper and getting your wife (who is also black) to read it back to you and pretend it is a conversation... then you might appreciate how ridiculous you are making yourself look.

You are in no position to judge the literacy or otherwise of anything I write.Frankly you are a child compared to me when it comes to such judgements and I shall simply assume you have no reply , as usual.
If you are unable to defend your opinions from the most obvious criticism , I don`t see why you bother.
It is difficult to 'defend myself' from your illiterate ranting when I am required to spend so much time translating it into English. I'm afraid I usually plough my way through what I would assume to be the first paragraph before giving up.
I'll completely agree with you about Gilligan but I have to say I do wish Doreen Lawrence would shut up now she's had her day in court, quite what about having her son murdered makes her an expert of anything is somewhat beyond me.
