Mercury = bollocks.He doesn't speak a word of English, so would be at an instant disadvantage in expressing his ideas.

These days they show him with a silhouetted shape of a face. He is just about every nasty ism you can mention. He is a fascist, racist, misogonist, fatist, homophobic, little englander, inward looking, bigotted, reactionary little shit. Probably a blue nose too.
I'm just bemused by the idea that somebody could be so incensed by his nonsense they would see him walking down the street and immediately attack him, so for his own protection he's as mysterious as a member of the KGB. Come on, we all know what Littlejohn, Gaunt and Jan Moir look like and as far as I know they're still up and about. In fact, they're positively loved by their fans and unread by their critics, so why should Tyndale be the same?And just to keep on thread, Maradona's still a c***.

The Mail's TV writer Molly Blake was the same - you never saw a photo of her because she was that nasty little everythingphobe Maureen Messent.
