    This is what he's too scared to mention, Infact I'm surprised Master has the time of day for a Minter post as Minter was know to have ties to and support the National Front.

    "And this is where the conquest took a racially charged turn. Right-wing racist groups, personified by the National Front (NF), were gaining traction in English society in the late 1970s and early 1980s. "Paki bashing" and "nigger knocking" were national sports. All over London – especially South London, where I lived at the time – the walls of buildings and properties were daubed with "NF" graffiti and propaganda posters urging forced repatriation of immigrants from countries once under the fold of the defunct British Empire. Asked at the time about his upcoming bout with Hagler, Minter became an unofficial poster boy for white English racism when he told the attendant media: "It has taken me 17 years to become champion of the world. I'm not going to let a black man take it away from me."

    Why are you surprised? You have always insisted that Master is a racist. Why does Minter's supposed tenuous ties to the NF not bother you then? You can't have it both ways. Are you finally admitting that you are pretty comfortable with the company of racists but not anyone who points that out to you?

    Why would anyone care what Sime-Sime thinks? Fuck him. If he does one more line of coke, his eyes will look even blacker and sink even farther back into his head. Brain cancer, looks like really.
