Tory candidate sorry over Tommy Robinson retweets

A Conservative election candidate has apologised for retweeting posts from former English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson.

Campaign group Hope Not Hate said Karl McCartney shared several posts from Mr Robinson and far-right commentator Katie Hopkins.

The posts, it said, contained "anti-Muslim and anti-Semitic material".

Hope Not Hate has called for Mr McCartney to be suspended as the candidate for Lincoln.

In a statement, Mr McCartney said: "I apologise unreservedly. In no way do I endorse the tweets or the accounts behind them. I accept retweeting them was ill judged and could cause offence.

"This divisive figure [Mr Robinson] has no place in our politics or public life."

Any word yet about his anti-semitic re-tweets from Lord John Mann?

That's well argued and this exchange of views has caused me to think very carefully about my call for greater economic literacy. (thinking this might make an interesting thread...if there isn't already one on economics!).

Discussion along similar lines is on this thread. Happy to contribute to a new thread though.

their candidate for Leicester east looks like a cracker. Sacked and suspended from her professional body, but still a candidate and all over their manifesto.

I wonder why they chose to use a picture of her with Michael Gove?

Are these assorted loons and ne’er-do-wells standing in seats where they have a hope? Could be a good distraction technique putting oddballs in unwinnable seats to draw fire from places where they have a chance. Or am I crediting them with too much strategic nous?

The Ashfield guy is in a Lab/Tory marginal seat. I don't think this is strategic stupidity, I think this is just what they're like.

Not an MP but a Mayor, a tory none the less

Mayor told children Santa was too busy to bring presents leaving them in tears

I, for one, am very much looking forward to the civil war and hope that on the way to victory we spill very large amounts of their blood. The more the better.

They've managed to keep Ree-Smug in a cupboard - you'd think they could manage to do the same with Gove.

E2A Probably aint no cupboard big enough to contain all their horrors.
