women are leaving it far too late in life to have a baby. The best age is in your teens and at a stretch your 20's. like it or not that is the truth.

Fertility goes by the age of 38 in most women and by the age of 40 97% can not have children any more. Any fertility doctor who is being honest will tell you this

I think she has a spinal deformation that shortens her torso.

Fertility goes by the age of 38 in most women and by the age of 40 97% can not have children any more. Any fertility doctor who was asleep in class when they were talking about the age that most women go through menopause will tell you this

Fixed.

That's right, he's a wheelchair bound thickie, and that bloke that was on the TV this morning was obviously an impostor.

Less sarcastically, looks like someone came up with something he found hilarious, the Lou/Andy skit, and wrote a justifying preamble for it.

Mark G, Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:09 (fifteen years ago)

that's one of the most astonishingly offensive things I've ever seen from a British newspaper

schlomo replay (acoleuthic), Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:17 (fifteen years ago)

he put himself 'on offer'!! ON OFFER!

schlomo replay (acoleuthic), Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:17 (fifteen years ago)

Still doesn't beat the Steven Gately thing, but yeah.

Mark G, Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:18 (fifteen years ago)

Yeah. Isn't the comparison implying that JM is faking his cerebral palsy, too? What a fucking prick.

emil.y, Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:19 (fifteen years ago)

littlejohn really is an astonishingly hateful cunt. i'm so glad he seems to be getting moired today.

lex diamonds (lex pretend), Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:31 (fifteen years ago)

although reading that you may wonder exactly how the fuck the daily mail hasn't been shut down completely

lex diamonds (lex pretend), Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:32 (fifteen years ago)

imo Jody McIntyre has more in common with great men such as, choosing two completely at random here, Stephen Hawking or Christopher Reeve

the fact those people are famous wheelchair users is actually a coincidence, although I can see why people might think oherwise

ITV2: Jimlectric Beglinoo (DJ Mencap), Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:34 (fifteen years ago)

is Dacre not actually on the board of the PCC ie it is almost entirely self-serving? I realise I could look this up

ITV2: Jimlectric Beglinoo (DJ Mencap), Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:36 (fifteen years ago)

That is absolutely unbelievably offensive. I sort of can't actually believe it got past an editor, even one who works for the Mail.

ailsa, Tuesday, 14 December 2010 12:38 (fifteen years ago)

Complained :)

Fuck these guys.

just so you know what you're up against, here's the result of the last complaint against littlejohn, where the PCC decided it was OK for him to lie to make a point - ie, he really can make it up:

Well, he may or may not have known what he was getting himself into, but he must have understood that being the person he is was just going to cause confrontation. and if he wasn't prepared for it, he should have been. Or forget it, and stay home.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 14 December 2010 14:42 (fifteen years ago)

i've drafted and deleted several complaints to the pcc over this littlejohn bullshit, just can't quite get my feelings down on paper. i'm having a particularly visceral reaction to this story - my dad was severely disabled and often wheelchair bound, and every time i see footage of jody being attacked i'm sort of seeing my dad falling out of his chair, and losing my train of thought. that dacre is on the pcc and that littlejohn will likely escape any serious censure for this is making me seriously depressed.

I wonder if he enjoyed the Mail so much yesterday?

Fuck complaining to the PCC, I've half a mind to email Cafe Nero pretending to be a customer asking why they let a grey-haired old racist warble away to himself about how he hates the disabled.

The success of the Daily Mail website is almost entirely down to the side-panel of tits and Z-listers from what I can see.
