Tory Chief Whip 'Plebgate' Thread


Recommended Posts

The worst thing is that he said it the day after those two poor WPCs were killed in Manchester. It's disgusting really.

 

He's the perfect advert for all that is wrong with the Tory leadership, a daily reminder to the country about what they really think. So no, don't sack but keep him there to remind us what we're really dealing with.

He sounds like a really arrogant person, however, I'd have thought that bikes would normally go through gates used by vehicles rather than pedestrians.

 

The incident occurred on Wednesday after Mr Mitchell, MP for Sutton Coldfield, was told by officers to get off his bicycle as he left Downing Street and use the smaller pedestrian gate instead of the main entrance used by cars.

Wow. Imagine what sort of idiot thinks he can ride a bike on the road. The police were right to tell him to use the pavements.

 

Who would ever question the police directing you after the Hillsborough report?

From The Telegraph:

A source told the newspaper Mr Mitchell said: “Open this gate, I’m the Chief Whip. I’m telling you - I’m the Chief Whip and I’m coming through these gates.”

 

The officers declined to do as instructed, and warned him he would be arrested under the Public Order Act if he persisted.

 

He then began pushing his bike, before telling a PC: “Best you learn your f------ place. You don’t run this f------- government.

 

“You’re f------- plebs.”

 

What a B'stard.
