Labour Regional Mayor: Boris Johnson ‘Completely Deserves’ Coronavirus
Breitbart ^ | 04/08/20

Posted on 04/08/2020 9:36:02 AM PDT by BenLurkin

Mayor of Heanor in Derbyshire and Labour district councillor Sheila Oakes had responded to a Facebook post in a party group asking people to say a “little prayer” to Prime Minister Johnson who was admitted to the intensive care unit of St Thomas’ hospital in London on Monday after his condition had worsened.

Miss Oakes had written on the social media platform: “Sorry, he completely deserves this, and he is one of the worst PMs we’ve ever had.”

After backlash on social media, the Amber Valley Labour Group withdrew the party whip from Oakes, and she is no longer a Labour member. The group’s leader, Chris Emmas-Williams, said that there would be a party investigation into the mayor’s conduct.

Appearing astounded that so many people could have been offended by her remarks, she told the BBC: “I didn’t think what I said would upset so many people."

.....”The American(?) Dem party would welcome her with open arms”.....

‘Hatred’ does not recognize borders.....all the preditor needs is an open and willing host.

We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses hate, revulsion, and scorn toward those who disagree with us.

Michael Savage of Savage Nation stated 15 years ago that Liberalism is a mental disorder. He was right.

Probably not the best thread to post my remarks....on the similarities in appearance of our US President and the UK’s prime minister.

Notice their blonde unruly hair...they both look as if they need some serious hairspray;)

But they don’t need advice from left-leaning lunatics!!!!!

“I think liberals who make offensive remarks, for the most part, are amazed that what they said raised any ire. They truly believe what they say. Further, they believe that “everybody” else feels the same way. Therefore, who could possibly be offended?”

I personally know and interact with lots of “liberals”, and believe I see more ANGER than surprise or disappointment at others’, especially their acquaintances’, differing POV’s.

Lefties are rotten to the core all over the globe.

The accent makes them sound a little better, but they are just as bad or WORSE.
