Jared Omara MP ..

[Guest sibon]

A recall petition can only be triggered by a custodial prison sentence, suspension from the House ordered by the Committee on Standards, or providing false or misleading expenses claims.

 

My mistake. I thought there was a serious misdemeanour clause in there.

 

I wonder what his chances are of being suspended from the house.

[Mister M]

Im not upset by it , more upset by the hypocrisy of some people

 

The hypocrisy of which people? No one had mentioned it until you started the thread. Maybe that's you being a hypocrite as it is the sort of stuff that you'd usually defend:rolleyes:

 

No, Hackey. You started this thread as a hypocritical thread based on faux outrage. None of the things that Jared said back in the dark ages are things that offend you. Indeed, you've said a few similar things yourself over the years. You are just digging dirt.

 

I'm pretty sure that there are many people who are genuinely outraged by his comments. You're not one of them though, you are just a stirrer.

We live in a world now where you cant say anything. 10 years ago tho you could say, well a bit more deffo. shouldnt this be taken into account? Guess if you're going to be a labour lefty preaching left wing politics, then if you live by that sword you should die by it like he has

[kaytie]

I want a byelection! NOW!

In 21st century Britain its all about tripping over yourself in pursuit of the ultimate status symbol - victimhood! It's why most liberals get out of bed in the morning. There are victims to protect and new "isms" to be found.

 

Don't get me wrong they're lovely people with good hearts, but their approach to solving many of our social problems actually makes things worse.

 

At this rate we're going to end up more like America and less like Scandinavia.

It suggests there is little or no background checks taken out by Labour on new candidates beyond the word of the candidate themselves.

 

(1) No way of thoroughly checking all the potential candidates in the time scale

 

This is a cop out. He's been standing as a Labour council candidate in Sheffield regularly since 2004 (the same time he was making these awful comments).

 

He's not just some guy that came out of nowhere - they've known about him for years.

Based on my personal experience of the Council from my day in the chamber, I would not be surprised if they haven't got around to vetting him yet in 13 years.

 

They are extremely partisan...or perhaps the vetting dept are on stress leave...

Cars at inappropriate speeds on a road with blind bends and dips, with a popular footpath crossing it, and used by kids to and from school, is the problem with Hangingwater Rd.

 

Ring road?

 

Correct. It is a local issue of importance to hundreds of local people.

Clegg and many others actively supported this campaign and tried their best to persuade the Council to implement a safe route to school, after a little girl was seriously injured.

 

Where is Jared's support?

Does he even know about this issue?

Why can't he have a word in Julie Dore's ear and help his constituents?

The hangingwater road issue with speeding traffic has been made worse, if not the sole cause, by the removal of trees. When the trees were in place they created a natural obstacle which slowed traffic down and calmed the traffic along the entire stretch..... Pity the councillors didn't listen to the locals

[bus man]

I feel sorry for the constants of Hallam who seem to have no real parliamentary representation.

 

Let’s hope the Labour Party acts quick and gets rid of this bigoted homophobic lout

 

 

They still have their MP he as been suspended from the Labour Party not Parliament. He is now classified as a independent

Rubbish. The sole cause of the speeding traffic are the motorists behind the wheel.

 

Does the presence or otherwise of a tree indicate how fast to drive?
