AN EXTREMIST described as the Animal Liberation Front’s main bomber faces life in jail after admitting yesterday that he planted explosive devices outside the home of a company director.

Detectives are now linking Donald Currie to ten similar attacks under investigation in six police force areas.

Currie, 40, pleaded guilty at Reading Crown Court to arson and to possessing explosive substances with intent to endanger life and property.

A senior police source said that Currie was the Animal Liberation Front’s “main active bomber” and described his detention as “a significant blow to animal rights extremism”.

The unemployed psychiatric nurse was arrested days after the bombing incident in March, for which the ALF claimed responsibility on its website.

An improvised bomb made from weedkiller and sugar was left under a car at the house of Caroline Brooks, 45, sales and marketing director of the courier company PDP.

A second device was found in a nearby garden, where it appeared to have been discarded. Neither was detonated but both could have inflicted serious damage.

I hope it isn't Glyphosate. I just bought a gallon of concentrate today and it's too expensive to waste on bombs...

These folks are truly nut-jobs. Nuts. If they are this enraged over the treatment of animals, why don't they try to work with the greatest threat to animals, namely, other animals? I'm sure all those lions on the Sahara plains could be taught a lesson about how their savagery is so wrong. Certainly the murderous pirhana of the Amazon could be reeducated to the benefits of a vegan diet. Those killer whales must, I say must stop their bloodthirsty war on seal pups immediately. Ravens and seagulls alike must be educated on the risks of a high-fat roadkill diet; doubtless their arteries are plugged solid with fat deposits. Certainly they can be trained to eat seeds instead, right?

Those animals, they act like... animals!

They're warm and cuddly towards humans. By aping nature "red in tooth and claw."

ALF is like flypaper for psychos.
