14 year-old dies in Gosport ...


The scan from The News of Tue. 4 May article about 14 year-old boy who "plunged from a ship's rigging into Solent". The news made National headlines Monday May 3 (Workers Day Holiday). The bottom line on the scan is half cut-off, it seems. It reads (four coloumns):

I hope Gosport people do know how to vote tomorrow. I don't. British papers are in a frenzy with headlines about the 3 main parties only. Desperation is palpable.

Just an example of the madness.
