| Don't mind the massive homeless problem in Ipswich... on 16:40 - Oct 20 by monytowbray |
No, it was sarcasm in terms of priorities. If that's the best angle you can come up with you need to think in wider context of the MP in question.
50 dogs stolen in Suffolk over 2 years (2018 figures) vs 1,300 people (2019 figures) looking for shelter at any given time in Ipswich alone.
The problem is this is just distraction nonsense to win over the middle class so it looks like he's doing something compassionate when actually he's a sociopathic elite berk who never talks about the problems the extreme end of poor society locally faces, likely because he doesn't care.
But if you want to fall for it and defend him exactly as he intended, feel free. I'd expect many on here won't be fooled though. |
On a purely technical matter, using the 2018 figures for dog thefts misses the fact that it has, anecdotally at least, increased significantly this year as demand for dogs, and so their monetary value, has increased during lockdown.
I appreciate that current figures will be difficult or impossible to find at the moment, but the figures from 2018 aren't relevant to a problem that was only a minor issue then but has increased since. [Post edited 21 Oct 2020 14:09]
