Anarchist's Call to Occupy Hester's Garden

It seems that Stephen Hester’s bowing to public and political pressure to refuse his bonus was not enough to satisfy those who believe that anything less than burning bankers on a pyre is too good for them.

Hester’s country home of Broughton Grange, Oxfordshire is due to be opened up to the public to raise money for charity, and in his blog, the founder of the newspaper ‘Class War’, Ian Bone, calls on his followers to “BRING THE CLASS WAR TO THE RICH APRIL 29th.”

With so much enthusiasm he can barely control the caps lock button, Bone writes: “Stephen Hester’s 350 acre country mansion is BROUGHTON GRANGE at Broughton near Banbury in Oxfordshire. The next OPEN DAY there is on APRIL 29th – when for a mere £6 you can marvel at Stephen’s good luck and shake hands with one of his eight gardners [sic]…….no doubt the scullery maid will also be present. Soooooo……CLASS WAR are urging as many people as possible to come on the open day and chuck a few more quid into Hester’s maw. Fun and games assured. BE THERE – BEST FUN SINCE HENLEY. Our French comrades will be visiting his ski lodge at Verbier on the same day.”

Of course, it’s perfectly reasonable to keep badgering a man who played no part in RBS’ downfall and has refused two bonus packages in his time as CEO as he raises money for charity. So occupy his garden.

But why stop there? How about breaking into his house and cutting the crotch out of all of his trousers, like some bunny-boiling ex-girlfriend? Perhaps an equally constructive gesture such as setting fire to his sofa cushions?

After all, he deserves it, doesn’t he?

Can someone please tell me who Ian Hope is ? He certainly has nothing to do with Class War. GET YOUR BASIC FACTS CORRECT, MORON

Ray Hulm

Ian Hope was one of the founders of Class War. He is the most evil man in England.

Richard Brandon

Ian Hope does not exist, it is a misprint. Google Ian Bone Class War, and then google Ian Hope Class War if you want to see where the truth actually lies.

I for one will be full of enthusiasm in joining England's most evil man on his inspired occupation of filthy rich parasite Hester's ill gotten country pile. You can't have enough rich person pyre burnings I say.

Well yes, if you insist, that can be arranged...

Robert Hode

burning is too good for this lot. hang, draw and quarter him, and then demolish his house around his defiled corpse please

Looks like the Indymedia trolls are quick to come here to further spread their poison. Shame they don't let facts get in the way. Ian Bone should to shoved in prison - have you actually heard what they guy has got up to. This is what happens to people when they retire early, have a good amount of cash and nothing to do

Ian Bone is a twit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vciXxY5ADoA
He is only interested in the working class people, and is not interested in what everyone else is interested in. He wants the working class to rise up and take what they want.

He is also very boring, swears alot, and rants at people in an offensive way.

Ian Bone

F@ck off! No I don't!

Touché. It's one of life's small pleasures causing the arrogance of the rich to veer into frightened self doubt. You will see the day of your executions and it will be a good day.
