A mother who killed herself and her disabled daughter in a blazing car had faced constant abuse and threats from a gang of youths, an inquest heard today.
Fiona Pilkington made dozens of calls to the police and council officials to complain about the way her daughter, Francecca Hardwick, was being picked on.
The single mother was told to ignore the 16-strong gang. When Miss Pilkington called to complain that youths were trampling her hedge, police told her to close the curtains in her front room.
The 38-year-old set light to her car with Francecca, 18, and herself inside.

WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT ??
how about letting the english people have guns and giving the ringleader a 45cal lobotomy
Who knew a Clockwork Orange would become reality?? Being of Norman decent, I am pretty sure it was those Saxons who are responsible.
So the police have resorted to acting like 1st grade teachers? Cowards.
what a shame...
That was a very sad story.
Churchill must be spinning in his grave.
Is this what England has become?
One could ask the same about parts of America too, I know.
An unarmed society is an impolite society, apparently...
I had a kid pick on me when I was in the 2nd grade. Our teacher said to ignore him. I tried that and eventually the little **** spit on me! I lost it, and tackled him and started just pounding on him. Didn’t hurt more than his pride, but no guy likes getting owned like that by a girl. Anyway, he never bothered me after that.
Unfortunately, English yobs of pure white ancestry have quite a well-earned reputation themselves.
“The inquest heard that, just hours before she killed herself and her daughter, Ms Pilkington bought a 10-litre can of petrol from a nearby garage.”
Okay...after reading more of this....I don’t know how much litres translates into gallons...but I think that is a lot. I have a feeling this woman was desperate. I thought my redneck neighbors were a pain in the ass. I thought the police in my area did not care. Just damn! This is so wrong! What did they have against this kid? This family? If I had been her I would have put a bear trap in that hedge! Yea let those little brats come around then. I am full of little booby traps!
And they’re positive it was suicide, huh? My God....
10 ltrs is a little more than 2.5 gallons. A liter is a little more than a quart. Like I said, they’re SURE it was suicide, right?
It should be against the law for Britain to preface their name with Great.
It is also a shame that the lady didn't turn her wrath on the authorities and burn them down. Going Postal seems the rational thing to do.
I wonder if us FReeper ladies have similar experiences. I punched a little feller in the throat in second grade because he wouldn’t stop teasing me. Poor kid couldn’t talk above a whisper for three days, and it was my first and only trip to the principal’s office.
He never bothered me again.
Now that I am the mom of three sons I have figured out he probably liked me and that was his boy way of saying so. Poor kid.
Alan Moore's conceptualization was, unfortunately, leaning very much to the pro-Left. But the basic idea was that government is not your friend. Government is not trying to protect you. Government protects the wolves who prey upon the population. And at some point, people have to rise up and say "Enough".
ever see the movie “Watchmen” that recently came out. It originally was very pro-left, but the message was that when someone wants to take over the world, they will manufacture a crisis and then “save” us from said crisis that they control. Sounds kinda like the whole swine flu panic.
I need to filter out some of Moore's message, but I find him worth the effort.

Not to let the Brits off too easy but we have been putting up with registered Democrats for waaaaay too long.
I finally lost it, and hit him in the face. I forgot that I had a pencil in my hand at the time.
The eraser of the pencil cut him just under his eye, but inside the socket. The point of the pencil dug into my palm up to the paint.
I still have the grey mark there.
You have a point there......who kills them selves by setting them selves on fire...aside from Buddhist monks. I don’t think they were Buddhist Monks protesting anything...so there you are. Most people who kill themselves in a car do it by pills, a gun or CO gas from the engine. For them do die of CO gas they would have had to start the car in the Garage, or other closed area, and let it run. You are correct, this is strange, very strange.
What did people have against this child anyway?
Some archaic cultures have a fear of people who are disabled or deformed, thinking they are possessed by demons or some such BS.
Wow, Great Britain has really gotten bad. Australia is having the same problems. Compared to them, the U.S. is doing pretty well. Whether that will continue remains to be seen.
“archaic cultures”? Then they had to have been attacked by the muslims living over there....I refuse to believe that any Britons would be that primitive in believing such non-sense. I mean...yes the Druids believed that way...but that was thousands of years ago. Muslims however...they still believe the way they did...thousands of years ago...
