		<description>I know you&#039;re very busy, Barry, sorting out the Christmas dildos, etc, but can&#039;t we have an update on this story now, as it&#039;s obviously been a tissue of lies right from the start, and this vile woman needs exposing for what she really is (the &lt;i&gt;Daily Mail&lt;/i&gt; aren&#039;t going to do it, after all!). She and her lovely husband quite clearly thrive on the oxygen of publicity, so why not give them what they crave? It would be the Christian thing to do!</description>

		<description>Barriejohn - you might get a few clues about &#039;darling hubby&#039; by listening to the dopey bastard - sorry I mean mentally challenged gentleman of questionable heritage - in his own words.

So try this for a start

		<description>I thought everyone was aware of that fact, &lt;i&gt;rog&lt;/i&gt;! She had been &quot;witnessing&quot; with a bunch of other Cretins at the parade, and didn&#039;t like some of the things that were said to her - surprise, surprise!! (She was telling THEM what she thought about their &quot;disgusting&quot; behaviour, though, in no uncertain terms: a &lt;i&gt;&quot;public display of such indecency on the streets of Norwich which was so offensive to God and to many Norwich residents&quot;,&lt;/i&gt; believe it or not!) She also claimed that she had been &quot;pushed&quot;, which isn&#039;t entirely unusual when trying to distribute offensive literature, and shout invective in the ears of people, in a largs crowd! 

I would just love to know where &quot;darling hubby&quot; fits in to all this, as I smell an enormous rat here! I have been unable to unearth details of his benefice in Norfolk, as I was hoping to ascertain HIS views on &quot;homosexuals&quot;. I bet they are no less extreme, but I have a feeling that she is being put forward as the &quot;patsy&quot; here. I still think that the whole thing was a set-up, and the council fell for it hook, line, and sinker. She is not the naive little granny that she makes out!

There is more news on this site, and some very well-written observations:

http://freestudents.blogspot.com/2009/10/little-more-comes-out-about-old-bigot.html

However, I have to warn readers of a nervous disposition that these &quot;students&quot; are far from polite about the old... I mean dear, sweet lady!!</description>

		<description>barry, I can&#039;t say that the religious world view inspired those little bastards, but surely the attitudes expressed by the woman in the article and those of her ilk create a climate where such acts are more likely.</description>

		<description>Well, &lt;i&gt;Catlady141&lt;/i&gt;, I&#039;m nearly as old as her, so let me spell it out again, she&#039;s a homophobic old haridan! Got that?

And I still haven&#039;t changed my opinion, &lt;i&gt;Stonyground&lt;/i&gt;, that this wasn&#039;t all orchestrated by the bitch and her doubtless sweet and reasonable, evangelical husband. (Whether the Christian Institute were in on it from the start is a moot point, but I&#039;d love to know!)</description>

		<description>It would appear that the goal of the modern police force is to meet government targets without having to tackle anyone who might actually prove dangerous. It would also appear to me that Pauline Howe is the ideal candidate, effectively harmless but a stranger to any kind of political correctness and therefore an enemy of the state.

Personally I am sick to death of those who pay lip service to free speech and then persecute people for saying things that they don&#039;t like. Why not just give her the right to talk like an idiot and give the rest of us the right to point and laugh? Surely that is what free speech really means.</description>
