The supposedly left-leaning UK rag ‘The Guardian’ has been in the ZRC’s sights before, caught touting flagrantly Anti-Zombie viewpoints in the wake of the Leicester affair. Given that, I suppose it was inevitable they would show up and add their two cents to this tragic Bristol City Council story:

Local authorities routinely have detailed emergency plans for natural disasters such as floods and man-made atrocities including terrorist attacks. But according to a “top secret” plan revealed after a freedom of information request, Bristol city council appears well prepared for a zombie attack.

A Mr P Store contacted the council wondering what plans have been laid down in case the undead invade. Rather than ignoring the request or dismissing it, an officer wrote back – light-heartedly, of course – setting out the best ways to tackle zombies and highlighting areas of the city considered high-risk areas.

Excuse me, but ‘light-heartedly’? The document in question, which The Guardian then excerpts extensively from, is quite *literally* a manual for conducting an Anti-Zombie pogrom!

I guess open advocacy and planning for violence is now considered ‘light-hearted’ at The Guardian. Brother.

For the record, The Guardian is skating perilously close to receiving the first ever publication-wide negative ZRC rating for their continued campaign to promote Anti-Zombie prejudice and violence. Very close in fact.

For shame.
