So he is the bowls entry in the Sun's Benefit Olympics?

If he can play bowls, then he can't be that bad really can he?

I could not play bowls, my knees have arthritis and I could not do the constant bending down, I dont get ANY benefits.
So if he can play bowls as you say.... well

To the original poster, please ignore these spiteful comments by people who aren't in the full possession of the facts and seek advice elsewhere. Maybe even contact your local MP? Every little bit helps.

There is far too much disabled bashing going on in the media right now, which quite frankly sickens me.

they play games in the paraolympics that go against what we could consider disability to be ie people with no legs skiing


so just because he plays does not mean hes faking

The Suns lies and has been proven to do so, time and time again. Hilsborough was their most famous example.

You think they're a believable/unbiased source of all enlightening truth, well bully for you .

Anyway I'll leave you so you can can carry on kicking the OP in peace...

Indeed, that may well be the case. Wouldn't you agree that someone who has signed the equivalent of an oath claiming to not be able to do something, to then be pictured doing that something, repeatedly, would raise pertinent questions?

For example someone allegedly unable to walk very well, playing a long game of boules. If something like that were documented then I think it is in the public interest to report on such actions.

Then why don't you provide ten examples - with evidence - from this mound of proof that you no doubt possess?

You may also wish to provide proof of your statement about me - or retract it. Of course if you don't do one of the above then we will have to assume that you are lying.;)

And lets hope it continues. Show them up in public. Take the benefits off them that they do not need.
