Tom Hunt being an unpleasant virtue signalling idiot again. 15:19 - Jan 31 with 9433 viewsGunnsAirkick

Do the people of Ipswich genuinely like this guy? He seems like a really nasty piece of work who is more interested in stirring up this culture war nonsense.

https://tinyurl.com/y5kgylcp

I don't know Alasdair, but he comes across as a decent guy on Twitter and seems pretty centre-left to me (not anything like he's being portrayed by Hunt).

I've seen other veterans calling out the conditions in these centres being appalling getting abuse on Twitter. It doesn't mean they approve of the fires that were set, just stating that they're living in awful conditions. Desperate people do desperate things and dehumanising them isn't going to help the situation. Thank you for your service, but not if you're left-wing and don't agree with Conservative Party policy I guess?

You can not believe that people who don’t agree with you exist, can you? It’s not a healthy way of approaching life.

Lowehouse doesn't think he's good, just that we should listen to his Vey Real Concerns and Seek To Build Bridges, to be fair.

Quite why it's us folks with some basic decency and respect for our fellow man have to keep doing it whilst these reprehensible t0ssers get to carry on being hateful turds, I have no idea, though.


Does describing folks as “ reprehensible t0ssers who get to carry on being hateful turds” qualify the author as a hateful turd?

Dunno, do you reckon it could even be equivalent to racism?

I'm not sure if this has been posted but I think the following quote from a BBC article speaks volumes.

"These sites have accommodated soldiers and Army personnel in the past and it is wrong to say they are not good enough for asylum seekers who have chosen to leave a safe country, mostly France, to come and claim asylum in the UK."

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-55877989

In other words "You think you have it good here? You're better off in France."

You'll have a hoot chatting to Paz then, cos he reckons it's OK to call Black people 'picaninnies' and suggest they have inherently lower IQs so long as you're a Tory PM. It's all about context, you see.

Ask him about it.

But Boris has and you like him. He is a racist, homophobic, misogynist.

Trump is the same and you like him too.

I think Tom Hunts comments are racist in that article as did the author of the second article posted.

As someone pointed out earlier people who like racists and I would add homophobes and misogynists are that too.

I dont like those type of people and therefore I’m none of the above

For the record I remain a remainer. I loathe most of the current charlatans in power in the Conservative party and now that Corbyn has been dumped my vote would go to labour.

I think there is a real divide - those that have lapped all the brexit rhetoric think he is great, the rest of us think is is awful. In a town that voted for brexit I suspect that means that he has more that like him than don't, but for me he is terrible and it makes me sad that he is our representative.


I know little about him but from what I have read he sounds like a real dick.

Sorry I do not understand what you are saying - If you mean that I am not here often enough to be counted as one of the regulars, then you are correct - I have neither the time or the inclination. I am aware though that any new poster or indeed those that are not 'part of the gang' are treated with disdain and not encouraged.
In this instance I think it a classic example where both protagonists have done themselves no favours with their public spat.
Oh and for further guidance the site administrators are well aware I am not a troll.


Mr Ross has been misrepresented in the most despicable and cowardly manner and you glibly suggest that "If you play with fire you get burnt."

If you have read the blog then you will know your first comment didn't make sense which suggests you posted with the sole intention of being a dick.

If you hadn't read the blog then that suggests that you posted with the sole intention of being a dick.

Being a regular poster or not is completely irrelevant but if your only mission is to drop by and make ill-informed comments, then to just turn on those who pull you up on it, then the whole exercise is pointless.

You seem more interested in sticking it to a few than actually noting what's been said or done.

It's clear to anyone with a shred of decency that Hunt is a piece of work.

Pushing the northern bypass and greater transport links. Pushing for strengthening of law and order


I'm led to believe Hunt was always likely to say he would support the Northern Bypass at the election knowing full well it would dropped after the election with Tory MPs and Councillors in surrounding areas not wanting it to be built

The Tories have been in power for so long, are now campaigning against the conditions they've helped facilitate in regards to crime. I hear a lot of moaning about 'Defund the Police' as a slogan, when they themselves have been the chief advocate of such a policy over the last decade.

I think you made me aware of Gummer setting up his 'Beer with Ben' thing, which, regardless of political affiliation, is what you would hope for from a local MP - getting out in the community, making yourself seen, being visible.

Obviously not all that many beers available at present, but has man Hunt done anything similar?

I've often thought that your average right wing law and order advocate is one speeding ticket away from going full Assault on Precinct 13.

They love a bit of stiff law and order - when it's aimed at the people they hate and not at them.

Quite so. Interestingly, Paz is on record in this thread saying he is in favour of an anti-woke agenda, which means he approves being against people who are conscious of and oppose racism and social injustice.

Imagine being the kind of person who gleefully gloats about being anti-anti-racism and anti-anti-social injustice. I mean, you can basically cancel out the double negatives there and call it what it is: it's supporting racism and social injustice.
