The Mail has learned that miners, bent on revenge are responsible for drilling for oil in one family's back garden.

Has the world gone mad? Miners, bent on revenge are drilling for oil in one family's back garden with impunity. Hanging is surely too good for these no good scum. Why doesn’t the Government use all the money it has stolen from the hardworking families of Britain in stealth taxes to make amends for the situation. Probably because they are too busy lining their pockets!

The Mail spoke to Paul Dacre, who said "Things got out of hand and we’d had a few drinks. We smashed the place up and Boris set fire to the toilets."
