Disgusting

Disgusting indeed. And not someone I'd like to meet in the dark. Yuk.

Nasty man.

Why was he re elected ???

The people who voted for him are just as bad!

An example also of the minus side of independent councillors - had he belonged to a political party at least he would have been thrown out and not allowed to stand this time ( after his previous rant).

Dreadful man!

How awful. I didn't hear about it first time round.

Doesn't he look like Pete Murray in the first photo? Wonder if he is still around? Never liked him either.

That is dire, but more worrying is that this is probably only the edge of his views which seem to be veering towards fascism.

When he has "done away" with the disabled who will he go for next? The elderly, other races and religions, gays? does he want a genetically pure Cornwall?

He clearly does even have the common sense to realise that even if he thinks these things, it is inappropriate to say them. That suggests that he is extremely arrogant with no regard for the feeling or opinions of others.
Yuk!

For any Cornwall Grans who wish to air their feelings about these vile statements a protest has been organised at Truro County Hall at 10.30am on May 24.

As a grandma of a delightful little girl, who just happens to have Down Syndrome, and is thus classed as disabled, I am absolutely disgusted by this man. How dare he suggest that children such as my granddaughter should, in effect, be "put down"! What he suggests is quite horrific and it totally disgusts me that people have elected this person to public office.

Scary that there are more and more 'independent' and , dare I say, other councillors (in a particular increasingly popular party) whose opinions and views on a whole range of things have not gone through a proper 'vetting' process. I know there are 'loony lefties' and 'rabid righties' in major parties but there is a clear process to deal with them!

It seems utterly unbelievable that he could come out with such vile comments - and be re-elected. I don't get it.

Is he the one who said something equally offensive earlier this year, then resigned, then came back and stood for election? Whether it is or not, like you, Sel I do not get it at all!

Glad to hear, ga that there is to be a protest!

There is also an epetition here to get him to resign or be fired!

Right! thank you, chocolatepudding! Will do it now.

Foul person . I remember the article about him last year when he decided to resign.

Petition signed.

I thought I read in the paper he was UKIP!

THis man is despicable. End of.

Agreed, gracesmum. Along with anyone voting for him.

Signed. What a B*****d

Petition duly signed - just think he would have had me put down, and I wouldn't have given the world Rock God Eddie Argos !! ( joke - he's not really a rock god )

Bumped. Please add your signature to the epetition. Thanks.

I'm not signing. Before i tried to get somebody sacked i'd want to know more than i heard in the media.

There's a lot of hounding going on in our society at the moment.
