DANNY DYER DON’T GIVE A TOSS WOT U FINK

JIHADI BRIDE SCANDAL

- by JERRY LAWTON

DANNY Dyer’s mum says the EastEnders hardman could not care less about abuse he got for saying jihadi bride Shamima Begum should be let back into Britain.

The soap star’s mother lashed out after he was menaced over his views on the teenage mum.

DANNY Dyer “couldn’t give a tuppenny f***” about the abuse he has received for saying a jihadi bride should be let back into Britain.

The EastEnders actor sparked outrage when he said Shamima Begum – who fled the UK to wed an Islamic State fighter – should be allowed to return so “we can learn” what drove her to terror.

One ex-Royal Marine posted a video online demanding a “straighten­er” with the star. However, Danny’s mum Chris said her son was not fazed by the abuse.

She said: “To all those w ***** s out there slagging off my son for having an opinion. You do realise that he couldn’t give a tuppenny f*** what you think.”

Begum fled her London home aged 15 to go to Syria where she married Dutch Isis fighter Yago Riedijk.

Four years on – after two of their children died and with Isis crumbling – she announced she wants to return to the UK to raise her new baby she had in a refugee camp days ago.

Home Secretary Sajid Javid has since stripped her of her British citizenshi­p after she said she had no regrets.

One knuckle-tattooed scaffolder – who claimed to be an ex-Marine – was so incensed by Danny’s stance he filmed a foul-mouthed rant directed at the star in his van. He raged: “I’m nearly 58 years old, a scaffolder who used to work for the Royal Marine Commandos. If you are so much involved in that f ****** Isis s*** you want to bring that b **** over then f ****** come and f ****** meet me.

“We’ll have a f ****** straighten­er. So if you’ve got any b ****** s and you want to give all that s*** on TV and you don’t know f*** all about the armed forces with people who are f ****** lost and f ****** kids that have lost their f ****** dads, mums or anything like that, then you need to get a grip on life.

“You live in a f ****** fantasy world making out you’re some sort of f ****** hard man. You’re about as f ****** hard as a f ****** lollipop man.’’

Jenson Hobson tweeted: “F*** me. Thought Danny Dyer was best man about until I’ve just seen him backing this jihadi bird wanting to come back over here.’’

Lesleyloon­eytunes said: “Treason comes to mind and you back it? You melt.’’

JACK Letts, the Briton known as Jihadi Jack, says he wants to come home after being held for two years in a Kurdish prison.

Oxford-born Letts, 23, who ran away to Syria in 2014, said he missed his mum

He said he doubted Britain will “come and help me” because “no-one really cares”.

A Home Office spokesman said: “We do not comment on individual cases.”

You’re as hard as a f ****** lollipop man

DANNY Dyer dug a huge hole for himself when he supported Islamic State bride Shamima Begum returning to Britain.

You’d think that after sparking such uproar he’d try to keep his head down while it blew over.

Unfortunat­ely, his mother had other ideas.

Chris sensationa­lly reignited the debate surroundin­g his controvers­ial outburst when she said he didn’t give a “f ***” what anyone thought.

While Danny might not care – many of his fans do. And infuriatin­g them risks destroying his man-of-the-people image.

The anger was shown by the support a foul-mouthed video uploaded by a former Royal Marine Commando received.

Threatenin­g violence is never acceptable and the scaffolder went too far.

But his comments echoed the feelings of many who profoundly disagree with Danny.

Too many celebritie­s have an annoying habit of spouting their views at every given opportunit­y.

But this soapbox lecturing only serves to alienate the public who don’t like being told how to think. We suggest Danny bears this in mind before he opens his gob in the future.
