Tom Hunt is sounding incredibly dangerous 09:45 - Apr 3 with 12799 viewsMullet

The latest findings from one teaching union found the following https://www.nasuwt.org.uk/article-listing/covid-impacts-on-teacher-mental-health

No other profession had the constant scrutiny and scapegoating from the government and its media chums did it? But the anonymous survey reveals grim reading at a time when people are trying to support each other still.

Then Hunt goes on to tweet some of the most tone deaf and sinister rhetoric aiming this at people.



You couldn’t get hawking the latest populist gimmick more wrong if you tried.

Now I think it's plainly clear that I don't really hold much sway with the politically correct la de dahs but I am in control of my own brain and I have certain standards and it is quite clear that Tom Hunt is full on tvvat. In fact he is an embarrassment to me in the fact that he represents my town.

I have a question though.

Is he really known outside of his constituency?


Don't think so. I'm only aware of him through posts on here.

If he wasn't before, he is now. Definitely one that CCHQ seem keen to push to the foreground.

That point though is that he is failing his constituents by dragging them into campaigns they didn't ask for and - in the midst of a global pandemic - can ill afford to be sidelined in favour of.

Would be interesting to see what he's done for his constituents versus the time and energy he's spent on stoking this pathetic social media culture war. I'm guessing Column B would far outweigh Column A....

The sooner he leaves us and our town alone the better.

No links to Ipswich, parachuted in and as others have said, is more interested in dividing our community than serving it.

Ipswich always used to be an easy-going laid-back town accepting of anyone.... unfortunately I’m not so sure that’s the case any more thanks to certain quarters.

Personally I don't see the need for assemblies, not in the traditional guise anyway.

As much as I love my country and the Queen I don't think people should be forced to sing the national anthem. As an atheist I also don't see why people should be forced to say prayers.

It's all a bit antiquated. Schools are for teaching, not brainwashing.

Yes, I think that Brexit has given racists an opportunity to spout their repugnant views.

But you said "Everyone who voted for Brexit is responsible for this"

Sorry but I think you're a tvvat mate.

Edit; Looking back it wasn't you who said it, but you obviously agree with it so my point remains.

Not sure where the "forced to say prayers" comes from either. Perhaps it is a historic thing from school assemblies before the 1980s? I know it happens in Roman Catholic schools, but I assume parents who choose to send their children to a Roman Catholic school either understand what they are choosing or don't care.

Of course, our national anthem is a prayer so I can see the link there, though.

I didn't actually say that.

However, if you recognise that it has given them more opportunity, how can you disagree that everyone who voted for it is responsible for that outcome? To me, it was a reasonably obvious outcome to a campaign waged mainly on disliking foreigners.

It's a classic 'not what I voted for, mate' when anyone with half a brain could see what buttons the leave campaign were pushing and whose views they were emboldening. You can't separate the two- actions have consequences.

He blocked me on Twitter after I politely questioned him on two separate occasions. Good job I'm not a constituent who, party colours to one side, needs his help! It's so important Ipswich sees sense at the next election.


i dont do facebook, but just joined, to leave a nice comment, so he can block me.

I agree that some people voted on a dislike of foreigners but It is ludicrous to suggest that this was the be all and end all. In my humble opinion those that spout that rubbish are just sore losers.

I thought long and hard about the whole thing and decided that it was better to remain - even though I can't stand the Brussels mafiosi.

Personally I think that people who suggest that everyone who voted Brexit is a racist are as thick as the racists that did.

This was always my concern with brexit, far more than the ramifications of the actual vote. The way that the campaign was run was all about division, about pitching the population against each other, and about appealing to an unspoken type of racism and discrimination. It was a massive green light to a really unpleasant part of our country to crack on.

I'm wary of blaming EVERYONE who voted for it, as everyone has their different reasons, but no one can be surprised that this is where we have ended up.

I never said that everyone who voted for Brexit is a racist - just that the result enabled the flag-saluting lot to feel more empowered. They would never have felt that way if we had remained.

No need to be so defensive.
