Oink! 3 #gammons will be spending Christmas and a few months after that in #jail after travelling from semi-rural areas of #Essex to East #London, stalking #multicultural community buildings and where #BritishMuslims gathered for #education and #prayer and leaving pig heads and racist #graffiti

There would have been a significant amount of pre-planning, the buildings targeted are *not* obvious #mosques and the men drove some distance from villages on the other side of #Brentwood (I'd always suspected many of these places to be #WhiteFlight areas from multicultural London)

Neighborhood Focus: Trout Alley.

Another great, in-depth report from Capital B News. This one's about the water system in Jackson, Mississippi, which, after two years of fighting between residents, Jackson officials, and state officials, is still in a state of disrepair, spitting contaminated, often tea-colored water out of residents' taps. Capital B reporters unearthed evidence that the EPA failed to act on its own reports about Jackson's water quality, thereby leaving a large amount of federal money, which could have been used to prevent the crisis, unspent.

I hope you do! I hope you send them some money too!
