Yeah, that is pretty bad.

Looks like a serious problem if someone has hijacked the domain and
managed to fool Google too.

Not sure how to address that one though. I guess Google will sort itself
out at some stage or else we have a problem where the official Google
results are different from the actual website. Doesn't seem right that
they defaced the site and then removed all traces before Paul got a chance
to look at it.

I don't see any of that junk when I look at the site directly.
