He is the well-known British boxing promoter
and UKIP politician is Frank Mahoney, who
recently sent off his late old dad Tom with an
elaborate and respectful English funeral that
no doubt cost thousands of quids to arrange
for his mourning family and his close friends
to attend on a warm, late-morning, summer’s
day as the double-horse drawn, black Victorian,
bevelled-glass, hearse arrived carrying the
The Funeral Director.
~~~Funerals are for the living. Burials are for the dead.
And, such was the same case for Frank Mahoney’s
funeral and burial of his good and beloved Catholic
father of deep Irish stock from head to toe. Ironic-
ally, Irish Tom Mahoney was given a quintessential
English funeral and not one that would be typically
seen at his beloved Shamrock Eire.

After The Requiem Mass.
~~~As I observed and recorded the family
funeral and the ever so somberly dressed
mourners with their even more somber emotions,
I was suddenly struck at seeing, with one excep-
tion, only Caucasian faces at the Tom Mahoney
funeral. That exception was one tall, mixed-race,
boxer in his late 40's among the 250 or so
mourners at the officiated Requiem Mass by the
Carmelite Friars at The English Martyrs Church.
In my mind, I then simply called what I saw at
In my mind, I then simply called what I saw at
the local Catholic Church - “White Funeral Day.”

~~~Anybody who hasn't visited London in years
or who doesn't know London today will be
shocked to see how flooded it is with millions
of Africans, ayslum seekers, illegal immigrants,
foreign students, Asians, Orientals, Eastern
Europeans, and shiploads of menacing Muslims,
that now sees London as a huge dumping
ground for many of the world's unwanted riff-
raff that loathesome New Labour under hideous
Tony Blair brought about with 13 years of their
socialist tyranny that has now turned England
into a ghettoized and foreignized country of
the like never before seen in our 1,500 years
history. Hence, not to see at least one black face
or two or some God-damn foreigner at a white
funeral in London thesedays is pretty rare un-
der our now vile multicultural and multiracial
imposition inside "Broken Britain." That's
why I was so struck at old Tom's
funeral being so lilly white!

Next Stop Is At The Graveside.
~~~Every day in Britain there are now All-Black
Funerals, All-Black Weddings, All-Black Clubs,
All-Black Gatherings, and almost All-Black Schools
because of the shabby, mindless, and abusive
because of the shabby, mindless, and abusive
political power of leftist Blair & Co. It ‘s okay for
them to have all-black institutions in the UK to-
day, but it's not okay in the warped socialist
minds to be all-white in what was once our all-
white nation. What I saw of Tom Mahoney’s
grand funeral was also the coming death of the
"White Funeral Day" in the modern and
sickeningly politically-correct England
that is so broken of today.

Another thing that struck was how small Tom's coffin

Another thing that struck was how small Tom's coffin
or casket was at almost youth-size. I take it Frank
Mahoney's dad was a short, small man, if the casket
was any measure to go by.

~~~Thus the 250 or so sombre mouners at Tom
Maloney's funeral were overwhelming white
Irish and Anglo-Irish Catholics with a couple
of Irish Anglicans along with one mixed-race

mourner. I certainly saw no blacks or foreigners
present as the magnificent black and white
horse-drawn funeral hearse proceeded to
respectfully trot to the nearby cemetery.
While, "In London alone, 10,000 people are
buried each year," wrote recently Chris
Herodotou in The Church Times.

Truly Christian & Catholic Was
The Funeral of Tom Mahoney.
~~~ Back in the 1970’s, Jessica Mitford wrote the scathing
book and exposé about the vicious underbelly and dis-
gusting tricks of the American funeral business called
“The American Way of Death.” As a result of her shock-
ing and best-selling book, new US Federal laws were en-
acted to regulate what funeral directors could or could
not do. One thing that Jessica Mitford’s book exposed
was the rip-off funeral prices charged the bereaved and
the emotionally-vunerable loved ones of the deceased in
order to maximize the profits of the funeral operators.
~~~
I don’t know what goes on in British funeral homes
I don’t know what goes on in British funeral homes
thesedays, but I do know that the rip-off cost of funerals
in the UK far outstrips what is the regular cost today of
an average American funeral. I’m sure if Jessica Mitford
was still around, she would expose whatever are the
goings on of the British funeral business to maximise
their rip-off prices. American funeral directors look
almost angelic today, compared to the average funeral
operator in the UK that are rarely without dead people
to bury and with handsome profits almost assured.
~~~
Without trying to sound macabre, I suspect when
Jessica's dead body arrived at her local San Francisco
funeral parlour, the English lady was treated very
unladylike due to her scathing attack on the funer-
al practices that she rightly exposed. I fear they
also did some awful things to her dead body.
Americans by nature are a revengeful people
and so even in death some Yankees will take
their revenge even out of the dead!!

of Tom Mahoney Quietly Commiserate.
~~~"White Funeral Day" was for me another up-
close human experience of witnessing daily
life in the raw at one of the world's biggest
cities that London truly is. But the problem
with London today is that it is no longer a
truly English city that has now been invaded
by everybody and everything that is no longer
English. Therefore, to see White Funeral Day
was abit reminiscent of London from years ago.
~~~
Although I know who Frank Mahoney is and I
have seen him before at boxing events and on
the national political campaign trail, I neither
know him personally nor his late dad Tom. But,
when I was asked by an acquiantance of Frank's
to came and write a story about the English
funeral, I jumped at the chance and I am glad
I did for if I had not gone I would never have
seen or recorded "White Funeral Day"
like I did ...
