Why Labour Might Be About to Lose the Runcorn By-Election: Because it Hates its Own Voters Tue Apr 29, 2025 07:00 | Steven Tucker
Reform is favourite to win the Runcorn and Helsby by-election, overturning Labour's 14,700 majority. Why? It might have something to do with having the nation's third-highest number of asylum seekers, says Steven Tucker.

 Tuesday November 12, 2013 02:07 by Anti racism and anti animal cruelty
I am involved with a number of groups that focus on opposing animal cruelty and from time to time I receive details of what people involved in controversial practises are getting up to. In particular I receive occasional information concerning what appears on a website called "Greyhound Nuts", a site that deals with aspects of Ireland's greyhound industry but specialises in promoting hare coursing.
 The extract I attach below, however, relates to a more serious issue. On October 22nd, several members of the "Greyhound Nuts" forum posted what can only be described as racist comments, directed at both the Roma and Traveller communities in Ireland. I believe there is no excuse for this appalling form of bullying which amounts. I believe, to incitement to hatred.
The "Greyhound Nuts" site is not accessible to the general public (as you will find if you search for it and try to explore further)...only to people who have registered with it and can show themselves to be keen supporters of the greyhound industry, but it has hundreds of members from all over Ireland. The person who supplied me with this disturbing material managed to register with the site ( a very difficult undertaking) and has given me an exact copy of the page/pages containing the comments.
Below I've pasted all of it as I received it. I personally believe it contravenes the Prohibition Incitement to Hatred Act. The astonishing thing is that Tom Brett, the site's administrator and "moderator", is among those posting the offensive comments.
Here is the page from the “Greyhound Nuts” site with the comments referred to:

Not looking good for the Gardai on this one....
They might investigate who reported it.....the papers seem to believe the child did belong to the Roma couple....recessive genes and that type of thing...knowing Roma I would not put it past them to orchestrate it........knowing of course that one of them was not a full roma and was capable of having a blond child with blue eyes
