A jilted husband killed his wife because she said that she was “single” on Facebook!.
Wayne Forrester from New Addington, south London was outraged when Emma, updated her Facebook status to “single” days after the couple split, he then went on a drugs and alcohol binge and armed himself with a knife and meat cleaver and proceeded to attack his wife as she lay asleep in her bed.
How outrageous is that to go and murder someone simply because they changed their status on a website!?.
On Friday July 25th, Michael Causer was murdered in a Homophobic attack which happened on Tarbuck Road in Huyton,Liverpool, two teenagers have been charged with his murder and another with witness intimidation.
His murder was reported in the Liverpool Echo and on BBC’s web site’s but only received limited national press coverage and Time Out’s Paul Burston was so outraged because of the lack of National interest in the story that he wrote to the BBC asking for an explanation. Their response was to explain that it was impossible to report every story and more important events had occurred at the time of going to press which deserved priority over Michael’s story.
Burston thinks that maybe a more sinister explanation of “institutionalised homophobia” may be a more accurate explanation for the lack of interest,stories of gay interest are considered target specific material and often relegated to brief reports. But Gay times columnist Terry Sanderson was more understanding regarding the issue and feels that maybe [the media] regards a gay relate murder is no more important than any other.
Whatever your views about the lack of press coverage and my personal opinion is that in the current climate where there are weekly stabbings and murders, the only one which hasn’t been given the rightful position in the media is homosexual in content . Michael Causer should have been given the respect from the media because his life was equally important as [sanderson] suggests” other people”.
“Michael Causer rest in peace.”

“A jury at Liverpool Crown Court has found 19-year-old student, Gavin Alker, not guilty of the murder of gay teen, Michael Causer, in a shock verdict.
However, Alker denied all charges, always maintaining that he hit Michael Causer in self defence. Alker blamed the attack on his friend, James O’Connor.
The jury took 13 hours to clear Alker of murder and manslaughter. Members of Michael Causer’s family wept and ran from the court as the verdict was delivered
James O’ Connor of Runcorn last month pleaded guilty to the murder of Causer, but the basis of his plea was that it was not motivated by homophobia.”
Alker will walk free, while O’Connor and Binsteed will be sentenced at a later date.
I hate the rain more so than any other weather condition because it makes me feel oppressed and depressed all at the same time, its only in the last five years that excessive rain fall has become a problem in the UK,and I know we need rain for environmental reasons but other than that it causes more problems than it solves!.
Not only is it destroying property and causing heartache and possible death but the effect on the fashion conscious is catastrophic and I know that fashion is created specifically for the winter months but its all about covering up!, yes a blessing for the over weight and ugly crowd but what about the beautiful healthy sexy fashionistas who want to be proud and show off their hard worked for bodies, the winter period is nothing less than exile from admiration and adulation!! No one has the time to admire anyones fashion sense when its pouring down with rain ,its all a case of running to the next starbucks. Life is really hard in the winter months when you have to grit your teeth and hope for gods help and guidance to lead you into the light and warmth of spring when you can discard those drab ugly garments and emerge wearing those fabulous traffic stopping, “I’m full of life and up for hot sex” clothes that you know, make you who you are and what you stand for ….and in the end what is better in life than that!?.
