From a politico, that doesn't surprise me in the least!

Yes, Neil....true, how does that benefit his constituents?
You know, those folk who were confident in his ability to represent them and their concerns.
How betrayed we feel. I am one of those who put my cross in his box. I felt that he knew the town, he knew the needs of the town...and this is how he repays us for our votes.
Never again!

I wish his box had two of life's essentials in it, then maybe he'd be able to represent us instead of just the Labour party.

Fool me once...shame on you. Fool me twice...well, that won't be happening.

And copy and paste them somewhere else.

I've a large collection of insulting facebook posts directed at me. A local councillor suggested I take legal advice about one of the.

I think people forget when they are typing away after a drinks that they could be held accountable for things they say. Wine Wednesday and weekend evenings produced many of the silly comments

Surely you're not one of the claim 4 u brigade?
Most of us slander and are slandered.
A pinch of salt usually takes me away from the main culprits that attack.

I didn't do anything about it, just found it ironic that it was suggested I did

Sadly Neil that's the way of the world nowadays, well for some folk at least, mainly the great unwashed, " I know my rights!" & the Kyle candidate crowd.

No doubt he thinks that all AW members are in the 95% who know nothing at all and can't be bothered to educate us all.

Margaret Pilkington · 09-03-2017, 07:33

Well, I for one,do not need our representative to educate me.
I am more than capable of researching the things I need/want to know.
And would I trust what a politician was telling me? I don't think I would...well not without checking the 'facts' for myself first.
I would be asking myself why he was telling me whatever it was, and what was in it for him...because I feel pretty sure there would have to be some kind of incentive for him.

Or perhaps her?

Lets not be sexist about the thieves/fibbers and downright perverted crooks that wander through both houses of power.

Margaret Pilkington · 13-03-2017, 22:01

The one I was thinking of is male(the one who thinks 95% of us haven't got the brains to find our bum cheeks with both hands)...but yes, the thieves and fibbers are of both genders.
