The Burnley fan who orchestrated a ‘White Lives Matter’ banner to be flown over Manchester City’s Eithad Stadium says he apologises “to absolutely f***ing nobody”.

Jake Hepple claimed responsibility for the stunt on Facebook yesterday, but showed little remorse for his actions.

He wrote on the social media platform: “I’d like to take this time to apologise . . . to absolutely f***ing nobody!”

Hepple, from Colne, Lancashire, is in the Suicide Squad – a gang of Burnley-supporting yobs believed to have spent a week crowdfunding for the banner and flyover. 

In one of his pictures he has his arm around far-right fanatic Tommy Robinson.

The aerial display, held above City’s Eithad Stadium after players had got down on one knee in support of the Black Lives Matter movement, was widely condemned.

Ben Mee, the Burnley captain, said that he was “shamed and embarrassed”.

According to The Times Paradigm Precision, an engineering company that employs Mr Hepple, said it was investigating his conduct.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
