The people who moan the most about being silenced have called for, and got someone silenced. Stupid hypocritical twats.

Without Caudwell Children/Centre we’d have been fucked as our local NHS CAMHS isn’t fit for purpose. Oddly enough though I’m positive Caudwell Centre wouldn’t be required if CAMHS was in a better place after 12 years of Tories - to which I now discover he is a bloody donor…Jeeze 🤦‍♂️

> Match of the Day host decries Stoke-on-Trent North MP’s claim he called constituents ‘racist bigots’

a Conservative MP used the sentence -

“when I talk about upsetting people I’m talking about the **Twitterati** , the **Wokerati** of north Islington”

what the actual fuck. he sounds like a child. he sounds like Steve Bannan or one of those fucking idiots who backs Trump. it’s pathetic.

also accusing Lineker of that slur against the North with no basis whatsoever should qualify for litigation. ridiculous behaviour from a sitting MP

His lord and saviour Boris Johnson also lived or possibly still lives in Islington too.

Edit: [Boris Johnson £3.75 million Islington town house sold | Tatler](https://www.tatler.com/article/boris-johnson-house-on-market-375-million)

Reality and clanging hypocrisy doesn’t mean much to shaved chimps like him though I suppose.
