Not likely to have been Jezza. The police put themselves in danger by neutralizing the flammable liquid.!!

[ToraToraTora]

good point retro!

That could have had such a tragic outcome, well done to the Police for their prompt action.

He may have been willing to set himself alight but it would not be an image an onlooker could erase from their mind.
Quick thinking by the Police Officer.

a life threatening politically motivated mental health act occurs outside parliament:

TTT takes the opportunity to have a pop at "jezza"

Ah the maturity of a brexeteer.

Spath //politically motivated//
Not according to the witnesses.

[Mamyalynne]

What proof do you have that a political motive was behind this?

[spathiphyllum]

"Not according to the witnesses."

I can't see anywhere of that in the report. In fact, i see it mentions something about a local council parking ticket.

Seems political to me. Especially given the location....

[spathiphyllum]

"the man was trying to draw attention to a "personal" dispute with a local council over a parking fine."

Some random women said this.


Also i think the location of the event says it all.

[dannyk13]

Spath. from the report:-
//the man was trying to draw attention to a "personal" dispute with a local council over a parking fine.//

[spathiphyllum]

How is that not political?

[dannyk13]

Spath, as usual you are inventing circumstances that don't exist. Why don't you just stick to the facts as reported?

[Mamyalynne]

Someone who was there , it's you who is random Spath.

Perhaps the papers he strew about held some clues too or maybe (waits for sound of laughter) he is seriously unwell.

[spathiphyllum]

Danny where have i drifted from the report?

[spathiphyllum]

Ah so are councils and their parkign tickets not political?

I find it odd yet again.. a quite sad story of the mental state of some poo guy in the paper. Yet the focus is now directed on proving spath wrong, not matter how pedantic you make yourself look in the process.

I think you aught to get a grip.

A typical ttt post, totally not relevant information for news topic. Yet every day ( sometimes) several times a day ignored by mods and/or editorial staff .

[retrocop]

//How is that not political? /
Because it is allegedly a civil dispute about a parking fine that is all.
The fact that most TV press is camped out helps his stunt though.

[dannyk13]

Anne so what are you suggesting that a moderator/ed should do and why?

[spathiphyllum]

There need not be such a drama about my use of the word "Political".

Remove the post to a suitable topic. May have to open a new topic for ( useless information ) .
