Did anyone see Leon Brittain on TV yesterday refusing to answer questions about a list of paedophiles at Westminster around the time when the fat reptile from Rochdale was at it.

 

Surely, there can't be any paedos at Westminster these days.............can there?

I remember that the police did investigate some MPs back in the day. Greville Janner was caught up in a massive child abuse trial in Leicester when Frank Beck tried to implicate him in his trial.

 

Janner was not charged with anything. Beck died shortly afterwards in prison at a relativly young age.

 

I am not sure how widely this was reported outside of the East Midlands.

 

Greville Janner will not be charged owing to the severity of his dementia.

Interesting, some accused politicians at least have the manners to die of shame. So the dementia might work in this man's favour.

A report there from 'the sixth most visited newspaper website in Nigeria'.

 

Is that the sound of barrel-scraping I can hear?

Lol dude I just run the same set of search terms across Yahoo couple times a day; I don't weigh the value of the headline. As for my ongoing list of most visited Nigerian newspaper websites I had vacancies after the top 4 so at least we figured #6 out.

[Edit: the correct response was "I think it just moved up to #5"]

TIME this one's for you, as I cite the 11th most popular Nigerian online news source in English.

 

"The Chairman, Senate Committee on Education, Senator Uche Chukwumerije is dead. He died on Sunday at 5:30pm today, Sunday, April 19, 2015 at a Turkish hospital in Abuja. He was 75. A former Minister of information, Chukwumerije was elected a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in April 2003, representing Abia North Senatorial District. According to a statement by a family representative, Chidi, the Senator died on Sunday after a long but gallant battle with lung cancer."

Loool, and you complain about me posting the death of a SF Bay Area singer/songrwriter?

 

Besides, can any battle against lung cancer really be gallant?

Fuck yes I do; you may be thumping your chest at poor little Nigeria, but here in death we are all equal, no borders. This guy was equal to our (USA) Secretary of Education. So yes he deserves a mention. As for your local hack that never played with a single band/musician of note, meaning HE was the musician of note, fuck yes I'll fucking complain.

No, he was not the Nigerian secretary of education. He would have been equal to the chairman of the Senate Committee on Education who I could not name by heart (but I checked, it's Lamar Alexander from Tennessee).
