Thread: Godfrey Puts his Foot in it Again - Insults whole of NZ!

A British Member of the European Parliament has been filmed at last year's climate change summit in Copenhagen congratulating the French for bombing the Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior in 1975, NZPA reports.

Godfrey Bloom, the UK Independence Party MEP who says climate change is \\"a stinking ruse to put cash and power into the hands of political elites\\", was filmed standing in front of the present Greenpeace flagship, the Rainbow Warrior II.

In the film he said the boat was \\"one of the most, most truly fascist boats since 1945 ... Well done the French for sinking [it].\\"

Mr Bloom claimed that he had forgotten one man was killed and the French secret service agents were convicted of manslaughter after the bombing in New Zealand, the Guardian reported.

The environmental group have accused him of \\"celebrating\\" the death of one of the Rainbow Warrior's crew, photographer Fernando Pereira in the attack.

Anger as MP hails bombing of Greenpeace

Comments from Youtube.......

You ignorant little man. I am from NZ and the Rainbow Warrior was one of the worst things that has ever happened to my country in recent history. I don't care about wind turnbines or politics, if you say that bombing the Rainbow Warrior was a good thing, you need a beating you Imperialist Toff. How would u like it if I said the London Terror Bombings were actually a good thing over all? And this is the most insincere apology I've ever seem- so smug and so clearly fake!

Mr Bloom is one those arshole snobs that is not properly wired
to the real world,Why those French ***** where allowed to go into one of Allies countries New Zealand and then blow up and Murder a civilian from New Zealand and say that was okay,You can see by his video that he a pompous arshole,Its time to get rid of these ruling class worldwide for good,spook

You're ******* !! Killed a Greenpeace man after explosived and sunk the boat. Today, France Govt still pay for big clean up at ocean pacific Island were very very ill people who close the Nuclear went off..... SHAME A FRANCE !

What a total penis this bloke is.
Who's going to trust the words of a plonker who can't even orient a video correctly?
All that stuff about sinking the rainbow warrior. Oh yes hilarious. Idiot.

you are one of the biggest fuckwits in politics at the moment - **** off and die, prick .) lol

My god! People didn't actually vote for that senile, ignorant moron did they? He should resign in disgrace. But then he'd lose all his cushy perks.

Sometimes cretins walk among us wearing suits and spouting sensationalist drivel presented as knowlegeable commentary. Maybe he would have felt different if his brother or son was the one killed in the bombing.

Yeah well done for sinking a ship and KILLING a photographer. That's appalling.

UKIP MEP condones murderous terrorist attack.

He's old and senile. And most likely insecure about his penis size.

Wow, wot a knob. Does he have any idea how the 1985 Rainbow Warrior sinking and its aftermath universally really really really ****** NZers off. He should apologise to the entire country for this.

The English are sad n'est ce pas?
They fought some wars and lost an empire and now are nothing but a 3rd rate, corrupt, overpriced, cynical and desperate little country. Little men like this spend their depressing little lives looking to puff themselves up anyway they can. Like rats in a barrel. Enjoy the weather.

Fernando Pereira, a photographer, died in the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior. Fenanando had an eight year old daughter.

Have you no sense of shame Sir?

what a massive ********

Well done the Kiwis for stating some facts. One problem with calling Mr Bloom "English", though ...

so here's some straight talking Bloom is a F*****T and so is anyone else who supports this

Greenpeace used to be a green movement. It is now full of commies whose primary focus is the entrenchment of multiculturalism and the worship of all things primitive and ugly. It's been a long time coming but they have finally replaced all the genuine nature conscious folk in the environmental movements with petty hate filled anti-establishment lettuce munching lefties.

Killing people whose concern is the preservation of the earth's biodiversity is evil. Therefore praising this is evil and so I agree with you that Mr Bloom is what you called him. Callous, unthinking, self-oriented and basically stupid. Real green warriors still exist and what they think of this kind of individual isn't nice. If anyone thinks Rainbow Warrior was a bad idea they will also be the sort who think harpooning whales is fun and the kind who feel deforestation is unrelated to climate change and that polluting rivers and oceans is fine, providing you like mercury with your fish and chips and sewage on your beaches.

I hate *rseholes like this and am sorry there isn't some kind of raft of the damned they could some day find themselves on so the real green warriors could take a few potshots at them while they sail along followed by a wake of plastic bags and crude oil.
