Is this the place the vile, layabout, unemployed and unemployable far right and Britain First members earn their money?

We pay for your stories! Do you have a story for The Sun Online news team? Email us at tips@the-sun.co.uk or call 0207 782 4368.

They only pay for racist and anti Muslim stories, though.

Doesn't matter if they are true, they will issue a 1" apology on page 37 in 2 years time if it is a proven lie.

Well, we know someone who will make up some stories for them don't we.   His lies probably keep them going..

Nope, HA said the Sun paid for stories and we do know someone who would probably be happy to supply them, true or not.

So why don't you just lock the thread? It's obvious that it's a stirring thread.

You mean like Major's threads are racist threads?

No, I mean that you have turned what was already a dodgy thread into one aimed at another member. It's what you and your ilk do all the time.

While you ignore Major's racism all the time.   In fact, you positively buoy him up the minute it is pointed out.

Not stirring at all.
Another thread is about a bloke who ran to the Sun with a non story, which they gladly posted, as it suited their anti Muslim editorial agenda. They paid him their customary £1k for the story. Cheap at the price.
There are countless other stories like this from the Sun - so many are outright lies, which get a miniscule apology hidden away months later, laying blame on the original author , not the editor for failing to fact check.
It happens with most , if not all tabloids.
Of course it is a relevent thread.

All his threads are racist or homophobic, he'll chuck some normal shit in now and again.

It's time to discuss his motives, as some moderators struggle with this and some posters claim victim status when his racism is challenged.

So you admit you want to turn this thread into one about the Major then.

Have you forgotten the fact that Ben said only yesterday, that simply posting up stories aren't of themselves, racist?

Or do you ignore him becasue you think he's "naive"?

Anyway back to the point, everyone has known for years the Sun is mainly a racist paper. It's hardly news.
