Self-appointed poop scooping anger
It's not until you get to four paragraphs from the end for the real story to emerge: "What was unacceptable was the verbal abuse which Mr Taylor unleashed on our enforcement officer, who was only trying do her job keeping the streets clean and safe for the community."
Apart from the swearing at uniformed officials, keep up the good work.

Town centre flats anger
And a killer comment from our new hero ShipShape:
"I won't believe a word of this until the Echo produces a photograph of someone mournfully pointing at the block of flats. Mrs Rackley has let herself, the Labour party and the town of Basildon down by failing to raise at least one angst ridden finger towards the dastardly building."
ShipShape, you are a star.

Liverpool Post: RIP
Today sees the last of the Liverpool (Daily) Post after 158 years. It's always sad to see a title close, especially one with such a long history of reporting regional news. Farewell, and good luck to all former Post staffers.
Street parking anger with the best newspaper comment ever
I am indebted to the commenter ShipShape who recognises what this blog is all about:
"I think its a disgrace that the Echo has flagrantly risked having Trevor's innards splashed all over the road by not making him wear a Hi Vis jacket whilst having his picture taken. (And a fine picture it is too, kudos to the photographer, he has captured the glint of desperation and hopelessness in the subject's eye.)
I digress, how many more members of the public will be put at risk by this Newspaper's wanton disregard for their readership's safety?
What if a child were to read this article and decide that they too will photograph their chums on the road? The poor little mites copying the example set by the Echo and neglecting to don the necessary PPE to step out onto the highway? It's tantamount to murder!
WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN!"
