Tom Hunt being an unpleasant virtue signalling idiot again. 15:19 - Jan 31 with 8087 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.

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?

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.

There is nothing good about him. He cares nothing for Ipswich — he was parachuted in to push a specific agenda very hard and that is what he will continue to do whether people want it or not. His priority is to divide his constituents rather than work for them.

My hope is that, as a town that has traditionally swung between the two major parties, there are enough people in Ipswich who will be appalled at his approach and refuse to feed it any further. But he needs calling out via every means possible, and often.

It's just worrying that these sorts of views are being normalised and lauded now. The lunatics are running the asylum and we seem to be on a downward spiral when it comes to truth and any sort of decency in public and political life.

I hope the people of Ipswich wake up to this vacuous, self-serving and frankly dangerous idiot as soon as possible and make their votes count when it comes to the next election.

If you play with fire you will get burnt. Methinks both of these gentleman should rethink how they present themselves to the public.
It is not about preaching to the converted; it is about convincing someone of opposite views that you might be worth listening to.

We're about 3 years behind the US at the moment. Tom Rhyming-slang will be sharing far-right conspiracy memes and indulging in dog-whistle-y incitement by the end of this term.

Hell, Priti Patel has already been doing that with immigration lawyers.

This is the bit where you say something controversial about something you know nothing about to get a reaction, have your pants pulled down and accuse people of bullying you.

There, I've saved everyone 10 pages.

You're just an attention-seeker, and not a very bright one.

Obviously I'm 500 odd miles away so my only knowledge of him comes from on here and what TractorDownSouth posts on tw@tter.

But from what I have read, he does comes across as an utter tool who indulges in dog whistle politics with the odd anti Semitic trope thrown in for good measure.

He sums up everything that is wrong with this current incarnation of the Tory party and one of the reasons I'll continue to give them a wide berth.

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.

It's the new 'do gooder' or 'PC gone mad' for intellectual second-stringers who can't bear the fact that the world's trying to grow up and move on from destructive prejudices and bigotries.

It's mainly the most inadequate who are upset by it, because they're suddenly finding out that the people they've been treating as second class citizens are just as good, if not better than them and the they're not entitled to be top dogs, they have to work for it, just like everyone else.
