Bloody great swastika Brexit campaign anger

Southern Daily Echo: Taxi driver makes his views about the EU referendum perfectly clear.

I am told by my employers - in the name of balance - that I am not allowed to make any public announcements on my voting intentions in the forthcoming referendum. I quite like having a job, so just leaving this story here for you - dear reader - to make up your own mind.

Strewth! Done a poo in my taxi anger

NT News: Man cuts off a length in the back of a taxi

Clearly the best local newspaper photograph in the history of mankind. It's this one to beat, editors.

UPDATE: We've laid down a challenge to the UK's top local newspaper - the epic Bromley News Shopper - to restore our country's pride in the face of the renewed Australian Angry People dominance. It is, we are delighted to announce, a challenge they have accepted.
