BNP Fail - another great advert for the master race
 
Poor Dickie Barnbrook, signed off work through stress. The malingering git.

Quote:

A meeting to consider whether Richard Barnbrook, one of the most senior elected members of the British National party, had brought his office into disrepute was cut short today after he failed to turn up on stress grounds.

Barnbrook, who is both a London assembly member and sits on Barking and Dagenham council, could be suspended amid charges that he brought his office into disrepute by falsely claiming three murders had taken place over a three-week period in the Barking and Dagenham area

Aren't BNP members allowed to have stress related illnesses?

Indeed.... and anyone off sick with stress related illness is a malingering git. :erm:

I'm sure there are a few teachers, policemen, firemen etc. who might argue with that.

Indeed i know a soldier who has just returned from sangin in afghanistan with stress, Don't think he would be happy to be called a malingering git :mad:

I like how people immediately jump to the noblest of professions in order to make it seem BBKing was calling them malingering gits.

We don't know if he was off for stress but I think the story was raising the issue that it seems convenient that he is off sick just before facing a panel regarding the fact he invented crimes for political gain (although this is not uncommon with the BNP)

I think my point is that it's a bit rich summoning up the spirit of St. George, Churchill, (Polish) Spitfire pilots etc. (all of which have appeared in recent BNP literature) only to bunk off with 'stress' when called upon to explain in a democratic forum why you've made some inflammatory and untrue statements from a privileged position that should require you to at least pay attention to what you're saying.

Here's a bit of background. Apparently he's got dyslexia, too. It's political correctness gone mad, you couldn't make it up, blah...

The assumption he is faking has been made. We all know what assumptions are the mother of do we not ;)

Human nature, politics, this forum?

If this were a Immigrant or a Labour MP this topic would be 8 pages long with dismissive posts. Maybe a lot of :rolleyes: and :mad: faces to boot.

I don't know if he is faking or not, don't really care but might as well give him the benefit of the doubt. It's not as if he is avoiding it, they will come back in a few weeks and summon him again. See if he can explain why he decided to invent crimes.

EXACTLY. :)

So not a lot of point in being a malingering git then.....unless the term applies to anyone with stress. ;)

<edit> LOL @ politics not being a "noble" profession

In that case you concede that the assumption was wrong irrelevent of who he is or what party he is part of :)

You are quite right we all do it on here there are 2 distinct "sides" and they clash often in this part of the forum. Neither sides behavior is better than the others and often is it appallingly bad.

As you say he will face the music in the end :)

Isn't the real issue that yet again a senior member of the BNP has been found to be lying to whip up public fear and is soon to be rightly punished for it, not whether a member thinks he is malingering or not :shrug:
