Andy Murray was a 9-years-old when a man burst into his school and killed 16 of his schoolmates. He had to hide to survive. He’s now a three-time Grand Slam winner and two-time Wimbledon champion.
For tennis champion Andy Murray the memory of surviving the Dunblane Primary school massacre in 1996, in which 16 school mates and their teacher were massacred by former scout leader Thomas Hamilton, is still so raw, so traumatic that he almost never speaks about it. He claims he was too young to understand what had happened.
For the small town of Dublane, Scotland, the Newtown school shooting was all too familiar. The events that took place on March 13, 1996 led to the worst school shooting in Great Britain’s history.
Like all plonkers, Lineker has claimed that the language used about stopping economic migration to this country is in some way equivalent to ‘Germany in the 30s’ and is also a veteran Israel-basher, tweeting about arrests in the West Bank and lamenting the killing of a Palestinian man who was later revealed to be a member of Hamas, those lovely people responsible for multiple deadly bombings in Israel.
It’s only in his recent autobiography, Hitting Back, that Murray describes his emotional experience that day; how he struggled to cope with the fact that he too could have been one of Hamilton’s victims saying “some of my friends’ brothers and sisters were killed. I have only retained patch impressions of that day, such as being in a classroom singing songs.”
On that fateful morning, Murray was with his older brother Jamie, who was 10–both had been making their way to the gym, fortunately they were told to hide under a desk in the headmaster’s study and survived the horrific attack. Hamilton had burst into the gym and began firing shots indiscriminately; his victims were aged between 5 and 6 years old. After three minutes, Hamilton turned his gun on himself.
Being such a liberal conformist, it’s predictable that Murray simpers of Jonny Bairstow’s hands-on attitude to climate protestors ‘I didn’t see what Jonny Bairstow did, but it could be dangerous.’ Organisers at Wimbledon have, pathetically, told players and staff not to take matters into their own hands if protesters get onto the court. But how refreshing it was to see Bairstow carrying away a JSO toff as though he was a useless surfboard being stashed away for winter.

When Andy Murray declared his support for Just Stop Oil this week, he joined that ever-burgeoning brigade of what I think of as the Schlock Jocks, or perhaps the Poppycock Jocks. Their leader is Saint Gary Lineker, the most expensive dominatrix around, taking the pound of the people and in return scolding the people who pay him. Gary, patron saint of refugees, whose virtue is so magical and identification with the under-privileged so great that he once spoke about receiving racist abuse, despite being born in Leicester to Margaret and Barry.
