Sadly, Ronnie is now confined to wheelchair and ccannot speak. Well good luck to him, if he was smart enough to get away with it. Shows what a bunch of losers the cops are.
I Love Ronnie Biggs..He said nothing to the filth.And he took off to the only place on planet earth where women can out fuck a bloke-Brazil-and that ranks with me -a 100% warrior for the working class..a fucker and a fighter...and wot a fucking tune-always one of my favourites,this and ' Mesrine' by the Blood,totally awesome..
@Noodles37UK He is an actor who is pretending to be John Boorman. Who was a Nazi war criminal who was never cought at the end of world war 2. For years people thought he was hiding in Brazil. The actor played Borman in a few Russ Myer films. So McClaren got him to appear in the film. Bormans skeleton was fund in Germany a few years back.
@badhead --- What????? that's Ronnie Biggs himself gettin crazy in some rio beach... nothing to do with Martin Bormann - that is the name of the nazi...
@vanDeursen Ok, I got the name wrong (mixed it up with thr director Jihn Borman) But on the 12" version of the single of the song The guy who plays Martain Borman is there. Dressed in Nazi clothing.
@vanDeursen I have a tiny black and white photo towards the end of my book Sex Pistols file- a non fiction paperback about the size of a magazine. Sort of book we'd spend our Youth Training Scheme wages on lol. There's a shot of Cook, Jones, Biggs and some " Nazi SS guy " . At the time, 1986, someone suggested it was infamous Nazi Martin Borman and of course, knowing bugger all about the realities of life age 17, I believed them...
@badhead Your Nazi history is slightly off. His name was Martin Bormann, not John Boorman. lol. And they aren't sure if he escaped.Some witnesses saw saw Martin Bormann killed in an explosion at the end of the war. So it's not certain if he escaped or was killed. ps: Actually... your info about his remains being found in Germany is true. And I didn't know that until I read your comment. So although you had some facts wrong, you also taught me something I didn't know. So thanks. :)
@badhead Your Nazi history is slightly off. His name was Martin Bormann, not John Boorman. lol. Historians were never sure if he escaped or was killed at the end of the war.Some witnesses saw saw Martin Bormann killed in an explosion at the end of the war. But, ps: Your info about his remains being found in Germany is true. Found in 1972! I didn't know that until I read your comment. So although you had some facts wrong, you also taught me something I didn't know. So thanks. :)
A True Criminal...Love you Mr Biggs....you are a real man...too many fucking criminals run this country and get away with it...good on ya mate..you fought the law and you won.....respect.
@SuzLa1 Thats because he was out of the band by the time Cook and Jones went to Brazil. Lydon's a shithouse anyway with his butter adverts and poxy Ant and Dec jungle shit. Biggsie was a hero to our generation because he screwed the establishment. Good on yer Ronnie, and Steve and Paul
To everyone who regards Biggs as a 'hero', and thinks it's good that he's got out - I think it shows that this country is in a pretty sad state. 'Beating the law' is a good thing? So what, if you murdered someone and got away with it, you're great for 'f*cking the system' or whatever?
I'm very glad you're a free man. My father knew you, is almost a year older than you. Fuck em, Ron. Stay alive. To many of my generation, you're a hero - because you stayed one step ahead of the law. You fucked with them, and many like me love you for that. You're a 20th century folk hero in England. You've lived a life; not many of us can say that come our 80th. And your son is a man of immense respect. Power to you, Mr Biggs. Get V well soon.
Glad he wasn't released until now, dont do the crime if you cant serve the time Mr Biggs! Why some people hold the train robbers in high esteem is beyond me? I suppose the Krays were lovely boys too?
if you put two fingers up to the system they will hound you until you are on your death bed, they hate independence they are vindictive and cold. Ronnie should have stayed away from the system.
You say no need to get excited but he's an old man who is dying and might die any minute.
I work hard for my money and have had my greedy bank steel money off me many times, then watched our government hand my taxes over to the banks like candy.
We are the sheep and the police are the sheep dogs. They are not here to keep us safe, they are here to keep the people in power safe, namely the banks.
Prevailed. I don't think so. Read and weep the numbers that support him.
The banks deserve all they get. They are making him into a hero by keeping him locked up. His name will live on for hundreds of years and kids will read poisonous remarks on the internet made by the hideous people who supported him being kept locked up.
jonny had nothing to do with the pistols when this was made it was just jones and cook . johnny had long since left and sid was to fucked up to do anything apart from a few bits in the movie
shut up u toss piece who the fuck do u think ur talkin to u mug, ur the foolish child u cock sucker. jonny rotten did not sing on this record, he might be talking at the end but he didnt sing and that is was i was sayin u fuckin prick faced slag
god save myra hindley god save ian brady even though he orrible and she aint what youd call a lady if ever there was a line meant to shock that was it
WastedBritain.... did my comments in ANY way mention Johnny Rotten's involvement in this song. I was simply stating that John Lydon is a prick, a false prick......... which he IS !!
Read the words more carefully......... prick (-: !!

He should be freed.
If he was a dodgy MP or a thieving bank he'd get a medal from the queen.
It's one rule for them and another for the rest of us.
Still he's one man who had a thieving bank over and that makes him a national hero.
