Pathetic really.

Indeed. Recent comments from the likes of Aiden Burley, the Daily Mail etc have been pretty disgusting and divisive. Fortunately, I'm sure none of them would have the two-facedness to now celebrate some of these victories. For instance, only a week ago, the Mail was telling us all that it was nothing more than left-wing propaganda, in the opening ceremony, to suggest a happy, functional mixed-race family with an educated mother could exist.
Take a bow, Jess Ennis: father, a self-employed Jamaican painter and decorator and mother, a Yorkshire social worker (see, it gets worse – a nasty public-service, lazy inadequate; practically abusing children herself, and stealing a gold-plated pension off the state © Mail, Sun etc). Ennis herself attended state schools – including a comprehensive, which means it's an absolute miracle that she learned to be competitive, according to the frothing comments over at the Telegraph this week, in response to the cretinous former Miniature for Sport, who was seeking to make big political capital out of claiming that state schools were failing to produce sportsmen and women and public schools dominate in this.
.....Apart from Ennis, they are all part of a team with members from other parts of the country, so the whole thing is load of bollox, which is only to be expected from our Yorkshire friends....
