A tart who is running as a Tory has said she'd like to see people on benefits put down.

You heard it hear first.

Thanks, that link shows the initial post was indeed incorrect.

She was a poor misguided individual, who was only 27/28 years of age when she wrote it.

Only 5 years ago; hardly a different era with different social norms.

It's an interesting insight into the mindset of this 'person', for sure. Now Davies has got his peerage and is leaving the scene, I hope the Tories will fade back to where they've been historically in Gower. This'll help.

In the interest of fairness and balance I hope you are going to post her apology.

I thought the whole idea of benefits street was to provoke reaction from hard working tax payers who have to support these idle feckless scroungers who live there.

How about posting some of macdonnel quotes on the IRA and his wish to destroy capitalism despite him getting £75000 plus expenses and his local government pension of £15000 all earned as a result of capitalism.

Why?

The thread is about Francesca O’Brien. Someone who finds the idea of tw*tting tramps amusing. And she wants to be a Conservative MP.

No, it was to persuade the hard of thinking that the Tories kicking away the safety net in this country was and is a good idea.

Clearly worked, didn't it?

It is simply astonishing that there are apologists for this candidate on this thread.

Her comments are abhorrent, at least certain of her friends are abhorrent and almost more than anything else, she is obviously completely stupid. Imagine standing as a candidate and not having these sorts of comments on Facebook wiped beforehand. The Gower Conservatives are seemingly also utter idiots for not vetting candidates in an open process.

What on earth made them select her anyway? I would bet everything that she is a candidate who will have no views other than the ‘official party views’.
May as well put a dummy up for election for all the insight she’ll bring.
‘I think Gower can be better’. Terrific. How?
What, specifically, will you do to make it better? Name the policies you will support, oppose, propose. How will you make a difference to people in the area? How will you manage the impact on local people of the services that are provided (by devolved power) by Labour / Plaid from a Conservative seat in Westminster?
Why bother pushing a central government line on health, education, when you will have no impact on delivery of those things? How, exactly, will your doubtless support of ‘get brexit done’ have a positive impact on your constituents.

It’s politics for morons, by morons. We all deserve better. She deserves every criticism that will be thrown at her.

It’s madness for candidates of any stripe to bugger about on social media because there are always people looking to dig up comments no doubt made in jest and put a spin on them. She’s learning that the hard way as we speak.

It’s all nonsense mind, Lis. A bit like your comments on here about wanting to bash UKIP (I think it was?) candidates over the head with a plank of wood. Granted you’re not standing for election, but still.

Umm, no. I’ve repeatedly said that any and all violence against politicians (and anyone else for that matter) is wrong - including saying milkshaking Farage was wrong.

I did say if someone bashed someone in KKK regalia over the head I’d cheer (despite my dislike of violence in general) as the act of wearing such regalia is an act of horrible aggression.

Let’s not make stuff up.

Jill Hughes, who was the party's prospective candidate for Batley and Spen, also believes in "elves/fairies/mermaids/unicorns and all things elemental and otherworldly", and that her horse was reincarnated as another horse.

Are you sure she’s not standing for the Greens? I’m sure most of that is in their manifesto.
