is she sure, she can handle Politics?


[She told The Times: '[The abuse was] a new level of grim.
'I have never felt slut-shaming to such a degree in my life.']

Sure
for some............

brexit is more to those (mostly elderly) who still believe britain is a empire, that they are better without the EU

anyone with good common sense knows britain isn't an empire anymore, for a long while they aren't anymore


this young lady over here for sure is misinformed then lol

She is talking about the Commonwealth
that's nations we used to Control (like Kenya)
that can trade direct with us.

Nothing to do with the British Empire

Nicky, please... do me a favour... stop making WILD generalisations.

Did you read the article?

"Haters even went so far as to dig through her personal photos, sourcing bikini pictures of the young, female, pro-Brexit, Conservative to share with the caption 'Tory slut'.

She received death threats and was 'outed' as a bisexual, something she had kept private from her family and colleagues until it was thrust into the spotlight. "


I hope the trolls are caught and prosecuted.

I am somewhat skeptical that she was recognised by some random person at a petrol station, it has to be said. Delusions of celebrity?

[Liam-]

Doubt that actually happened, seems like someone trying to make a name for themselves tbh

Yes but things like this ,do happen.


A Future MP
male or female
should not pose in a Sexy Way
it will haunt her.

Unless she becomes a Real MP
she will be forgotten.

[Livia]

I'm thinking people would be more shocked at what happened to this young women if she wasn't a Tory. Usually people are outraged that a women has been trolled like this, a photo of her in a bikini sent to various people, her bisexuality outed....

yes ma'am

but honestly that's what you get for associating with Tories, they are hated by some in britain and definitely those responsible here are those who are against Tories

not saying i wish this on that girl, cause it's sad, and yeah hope the ones responsible are caught and prosecuted

Somewhat sceptical that a councillor was recognised in her own ward after being on TV? By someone who has presumably also seen her online.

[Livia]

yes ma'am

but honestly that's what you get for associating with Tories, they aren't that much liked in britain

not saying i wish this on that girl, cause it's sad, and yeah hope the ones responsible are caught and prosecuted

So you're saying she deserved it for being a Tory?

[Nicky91]

So you're saying she deserved it for being a Tory?

no, she doesn't deserve this at all, i just mean to say Tories are hated by some

so this isn't very surprising i think

[Livia]

But it's exactly what you said. "that's what you get...."

The Tories are in power right now, someone must like them. Your view is kind of skewed because there are so many people on TiBB who hate them.

I'm surprised at you Nicky. I'm surprised you believe that's it's okay to play this down because you don't agree with her politics.

i know what i had said, and yeah i know the tories are in power right now (sad that Labour hasn't got a better more suitable leader for them than Corbyn)

i find it sad this girl has been treated like this, in a very disgusting way, if this is her political views, ok and btw i wouldn't have done this to her

[Beso]

Just shows to me that the left are more right leaning than the right with the way they persecute opinions.

[Tom4784]

If she was a remainer then she would have gotten the same, if not worse from brexiteers. Extremists are extremists.

That's an impressive crystal ball....it deflects the issue as well as telling you what would happen with something that hasn't...do you want to sell it. :shrug:

You're the one deflecting by making it an us and them issue and using it to push your own agenda.

Go look on twitter at how brexiters see prominent remainers and you'd see exactly the same kind of comments as this girl got. It's the same extreme elements on both side and if you refuse to see that then you are part of the problem, not the solution.

I just posted the link....her online abusers are the ones making it an us and them issue...I'm merely reporting a news story...about bullies...the leftie fascist type.....


I'm sorry as well but I'm not going to spend my day getting all depressed trawling the net for signs of abuse...you can do that and list what you find if you want...I'm not though, urghhhh..no way.:nono:

No, you're just choosing to ignore that the same issues exist on your side in order to give yourself a reason to lash out at a side you hate. There are trolls on both sides and this is a bipartisan issue that affects everyone who comes into prominence politically. As I said before, if you can't acknowledge that then you are content with the problem persisting as long as the trolls are on your side.

Well I've yet to see a young girl airing her remain views on tv before being horribly abused..one who then wants to join the labour party have her photos stolen to be used to mock her...I've yet to see that...when I do, I will post..

You can stop going in on me now, thas not how the forum works...keep it on subject son.

[Nicky91]

oh and btw i've found one article of a remainer who was verbally attacked

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6507453/Remainer-punched-pensioner-attacked-youths-anti-Brexit-T-shirt.html

[Kazanne]

Disgusing low lifes who have nothing better to do than mock and take the pee out of a hard working girl,jealousy comes to mind that they could never.

Also totally unacceptable. And if this thread was about remainers being attacked I'd go on to say more.

It was having her sexuality outed when her family weren't aware...shameful. Can't understand how people are playing it down. Actually... I do understand only too well.

I know exactly what you mean Livia , how could this ever be right in a sane persons mind and yes the sexuality outed is truly a low blow.

i may have missed the point here, but this is about a bunch of unpleasant online trolls to me. Something that by now is an unfortunate reality for anyone in public life if they choose to have a social media presence. The fact that she spoke about supporting brexit isn't the issue. The issue to me is that there are online trolls that will use any excuse to verbally attack and bully people on a whim

Yeah, I'd agree with that. But it seems to me that it's only unacceptable to some people when the victim shares their political view.
