1 October - The woke self-identify. Councillor Read is definitely innocent
I’m not sure what has happened but
a month ago I said
that the Bonkers blog was going to shut up shop and here we are still pointing out political idiocies.
Bexley’s
Code of Conduct Committee reported that an unnamed Councillor had been on the receiving end of complaints about his Social Media
activities. An anonymous Twitter account now claims to have done it and that Councillor Philip Read was reported for having racist views.
If he does his Retweet (below) provides no evidence of it.
Like me, 2,419 fellow Twitter users and probably you as well, Councillor Read thinks that a regime that
‘disappears’ young men, hangs gays from crane jibs, stones rape victims to death while buried up to their neck,
imprisons British citizens on trumped up charges and sentences women to 20 years for not covering their faces is a
terrorist organisation undeserving of support of any kind.
Ali Khamenei’s punishment for mask dissenters is even more severe than Boris Johnson’s.
I
really do not get why some people feel the need to complain about Councillors
for an innocuous Retweet or for that matter how supposedly reputable newspapers
publish letters from people who wish people dead.
The previous Labour leader certainly lent support to all of those terrorist
organisations and his successor makes no secret of the fact he supports an
organisation which aims to bring down Western civilisation. Defund the police, abolish Capitalism etc.
All the evidence is on the side of Councillor Philip Read.
Note how the complainant distorts the truth by claiming Councillor Read was
racist against “Iranian citizens”. He Retweeted no such thing. The complaint was both
malicious and frivolous. Why did the Code of Conduct Committee issue any form of
admonition for endorsing the truth?
Perhaps I should place on record that in the experience of this voter Bexley’s Labour
Councillors and especially my former MP are among the most well intentioned and
frequently helpful people one could hope to meet.
Clearly the issue was not resolved.
Looks like it is being raked up all over again.
