Huddersfield Canal attack

Can you help identify the cowardly vermin who attacked this young man by throwing him and his £150 bicycle into the Huddersfield Narrow Canal close to Ashton? The attack took place on Sunday 19th April 2009. Not only has this hard working young man lost his bike which he cannot afford to replace, he lost his mobile phone which was destroyed by the water and he is now petrified and traumatised by the whole sickening ordeal. It took a lot courage for him to do this video and he is still traumatised so please be respectful if posting a reply.

Efforts have been made to recover the bike but sadly these efforts ended in failure due to the fact the bike was thrown across the canal into a deep part and the opposite bank is inaccessible due to it being fenced off and within the perimeter of a factory. If anyone has any suggestions on how the victim might recover his bike please let us know.

check out the nazi iron cross on his coat and be aware it is west the pest conducting the interview. he will get no sympathy from us

The cross is meaningless, come on Mike you should know that being a historian - lol.

However, it's a put up job. if you have the misfortune of watching it then it becomes obvious

Canal Dredger said...

The cross on Mark’s jacket is the St John’s Cross which also happens to be the symbol of the St John Ambulance of which Mark is a volunteer member. The idiot making the stupid claims about it being a German iron cross is a bitter and twisted former Labour councillor.

Anon, what do you mean by saying "it's a put up job", are you suggesting the incident never occurred and that Mark is making it up?

Anonymous said...

He looks like a nice friendly lad. I hope you get your bike back and that the villians get caught.

Here's Mark at Buck house for St John Ambulance meeting The Princess Anne. You notice she also has the German iron cross on her jumper. Mark is a community worker and a great lad. His attackers need to be caught.

The second comment was not me. If I have something to say, then I will do so under my pseudonym.

Tameside Citizen said...

That is great news if true, but let us also remember there could yet be other victims of this crime. As we know the bike is submerged in the canal and there is a possibility it could be struck by a barge which could lead to the barge getting damaged beneath the waterline.

I have been given a name claiming to expose the identity of the poster using the name ‘labour til i die’ and this person is indeed an ex-Labour councillor. But hearsay is not enough evidence to publicly name and shame somebody who may in actual fact be innocent. And for anyone considering naming him do bear in mind the internet is not exempt from the law and he could very easily make a police complaint and have you arrested. The police can easily monitor who has posted comments and they can be tracked down in minutes if the will to apprehend them exists.

Anon, please stop accusing people of making controversial posts without any proof. Personally I do not think it was MRM who made the second comment because as he says – he doesn’t hide behind unknown identities when making accusations.

It is likely these scrotes will be known to the police so let us hope he recognises them from the police photographs.

West1964 said...

The police said a few attacks have been reported on the Droylsden part of the canal.

Scrotes seem to be everywhere these days. A good flogging would do them good.

War law said...

Sounds like there's a good chance of them being caught, after that is where it starts to go wrong. The fine, community 'punishment' or maybe derisory few weeks in prison he/they receive will actually make things worse as such widespread and chronic leniency devalues the judicial system still further. Punishment should be deterrent, proportionate with the crime-in this case a vicious and unprovoked assault-,take into account the long term effects on the victim and send out the strongest possible message to vermin like this that there are severe consequences for this type of animalistic savagery. I've met Mark, he's a decent, hardworking, law abiding lad, the people who did this are scum and in my view need some humility beating into them with the birch.

ukip said...

Tom Wise was suspendended over two years ago, he is not a UKIP representative. however the the money he is accused of defruading is less than 10% of the money Den Dover claimed , and a hell of a lot less than your local labour mp claims. please wait for the verdict

un-biased observer said...

UKIP is the most honest and sincere poster on here. You can count on my vote UKIP.

West RoyKevin1964 said...

The police told Mark that it would be difficult to prove criminal damage. They have logged the crime has common assault. I'm telling you, the police where Struggling to come up with a Category for the crime........................

This ex-labour til i die cllr is a disgrace attacking a young lad like that. This lad works for the local community not just in Dukinfield, but goes on duty for St John all over Tameside. This always on a voluntary basis. Also with his twin sister together doing St John duties. This failed labour cllr should be exposed for his vile attack on this young man.

Towton 1461 said...

Common assault? They'll get a caution at most and the victim (who counts for nothing in Britain 2009) will be left to live with the long term consequences. In the words of former Chief Constable James Anderton, 'They should be beaten until they beg for mercy.'

But victims like Mark can never see justice done said...

Britain appears to be evolving into the first modern soft totalitarian state. As a sometime teacher of political science and international law, I do not use the term totalitarian loosely.

There are no concentration camps or gulags but there are thought police with unprecedented powers to dictate ways of thinking and sniff out heresy, and there can be harsh punishments for dissent.

Nikolai Bukharin claimed one of the Bolshevik Revolution’s principal tasks was “to alter people’s actual psychology”. Britain is not Bolshevik, but a campaign to alter people’s psychology and create a new Homo britannicus is under way without even a fig leaf of disguise.

The Government is pushing ahead with legislation that will criminalise politically incorrect jokes, with a maximum punishment of up to seven years’ prison. The House of Lords tried to insert a free-speech amendment, but Justice Secretary Jack Straw knocked it out. It was Straw who previously called for a redefinition of Englishness and suggested the “global baggage of empire” was linked to soccer violence by “racist and xenophobic white males”. He claimed the English “propensity for violence” was used to subjugate Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and that the English as a race were “potentially very aggressive”.

In the past 10 years I have collected reports of many instances of draconian punishments, including the arrest and criminal prosecution of children, for thought-crimes and offences against political correctness.

West RoyKevin1964 said...

Well one of the best posts ever on this blog the above.
It's a creeping crawler in our country. The thought police are making their plans for the future of this nation. The support in Dukinfield continues to grow as I tell folk about the police action. The raid on my home, the police sent three officers armed with cameras just to take photos of flags in my living room. Residents in Duki have told me that the police were knocking on doors in the last local elections, telling folk to take down my election posters from their front windows.
In a recent meeting with new charter, I was advised by them not to post comments on here about fox hunting. I received a phone call from PC Edwards about comments on this blog. I was told over the phone by the Borough Solicitor that the police were very frustrated with this blog and it's contents. They are all of the same politically correct movement determined to stiffle free speach.
Come on: who ever heared of the police wanting to raid your home to take photos of Enoch Powell dvds? It's a creeping crawler alright and it's only a matter of time til it comes your way.........

Roy, Youtube is for sharing videos - not images. If you want something that does both then try Flickr.

Imageshack is also good for distributing images.

Mr West stop using this young lad for your own political agenda, you are making him look daft like you are.
What he needs is real help and support and not being made fun of because of you on here.

Thank you Roy! The Wests were in Jamestown, VA in 1607 [three of them] and the first Governor of Yorktown, VA was Captain John West. Most came through Virgina but seem to have originated from the same region in the old country. I am confident that we are related. Please visit us when you are in Orlando next.

This is what new labour are all about make no mistake about that.

Did you hear Nick Griffin's interview with Peter Allen on 5 Live. If not, why not catch the podcast. Germans and Italians can "become" british but those with darker skins can't. ha ha ha ... So the Gurkha who stood proudly with us in our hour of need is less British than the German! ha ha ha. What a buffoon!

I have enough of this vile and truly evil man. How dare he try and say who can and who cannot be British. What has this vile individual ever done for this country apart from ferment hatred and division? The real British heroes are icons like Amir Khan, Lewis Hamilton, Lenny Henry, Mary Seacole, Leona Lewis and Frank Bruno. Use your vote in June to destroy his chances.

how can he describe Germans and Italians as more British that Gurkhas? Its just beyond belief.

Is a dog born in a stable a horse? said...

Italians and Germans are indigenous to Europe as are we British. We all come from the same European tribe so we are linked. Ghurkhas are wonderful people but they are not British or English. Just because somebody resides in a particular country, is born in a particular country or holds citizenship of a particular country does not mean that they are indigenous to that country.

I will ask again, as a white European if I was born in China would that make me Chinese?

West RoyKevin1964 said...

The Ghurkhas put their lives on the line for the Brits. Massive respect goes out to them. They are in the hall of fame of our military forces.........I see them as friends of The British Family Of Nations.

I.D. said...

Leona Lewis, Lenny Henry, Frank Bruno, icons? Get back to your rubber room. Nick Griffin and the BNP confront issues and are prepared to defend their point of view. The PC brigade's response is childish 'moralising' and namecalling, "You're 'evil' if you don't agree with us." Such tactics are used to divert attention from twelve years of attempted destruction of our national identity.
