She's a bit stupid then isn't she

Nothing like the press hounding down their next victim, she is a bit naïve and stupid for tweeting that stuff but I am sure most people have done something not right when young.

This will probably mature her. I saw her on BBC Breakfast and she seemed nice enough, maybe they will accuse her of playing up for the cameras next. Although this whole Police Commissioner business is a waste of time and money IMHO!

She's 17 ****ing years old and she is being vilified by the press...is there any depths that this God awful ****ing paper will not sink to

What a load of rubbish. Those tweets mostly mean nothing lol

I agree Jack. The Daily Fail are more obsessed with the TOWIE and Geordie Shore types of this world, which Paris probably has more talent on her little finger than all of that lot;).

Kent youth PCC Paris Brown apologises over 'inappropriate' tweets

http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/image...2749_paris.jpg

A teenager who became Britain's first youth police and crime commissioner (PCC) has apologised for her "inappropriate" comments on Twitter.

Paris Brown, 17, was appointed to work alongside Kent's Independent PCC Ann Barnes representing young people across the county last week.

Paris said she was "wildly exaggerating" in what could have been considered racist and anti-gay tweets.

Ms Barnes said Paris would "learn quickly from this".

The Mail on Sunday reported Paris boasted about her sex life, drug taking and drinking on her account @vilulabelle on the social networking website.

The Twitter page has since been removed.

Paris has apologised and told the BBC the comments, posted between the ages of 14 and 16, had been "misinterpreted".

"All teenagers make mistakes, all teenagers think at one point 'oh I'm annoyed, write something stupid'… it's an age thing," she said.

'Stupid' and 'immoral'

Paris said she thought she was "definitely up to the job".

"I don't think that a few stupid, immoral tweets which I admit can be taken horrifically offensively but were not meant at all to offend anyone," she said.

"I don't think they should shape my future and my career and how I'm going to represent young people."

In a statement, Paris said she was "not homophobic, racist or violent and am against the taking of drugs".

She will take up the post of youth PPC in July or August, after her apprenticeship.

Nicholas Rogers, a Conservative councillor in Kent, tweeted: "@AnnBarnesKPCC's plan to throw a teen into a vicious political environment was naïve.

"Sad, but Youth PCC should resign and post scrapped."

He tweeted Ms Barnes' youth PCC plan had "gone badly wrong, throwing her judgement into question and damaging a young persons's future".

In another tweet, he added: "Naive to throw a teen into robust political environment. Youth PCC nice bit of PR but ended in tears."

'She's not hiding'

Ms Barnes said of Paris's tweets: "They are awful, they are dreadful, there's no getting away from that. But Paris is learning very quickly and maturing into a very sensible young woman.

"She's not hiding behind what she's done. She's here after being plastered over the front of the Mail on Sunday in quite a vitriolic report.

"There aren't many people I know who would face the country's media and I take my hat of to her for doing it."

Ann Barnes - January 2013 Ann Barnes said she did not condone the content and language of the tweets
The PCC said she did not think she had made a mistake by appointing Paris, who went through a "proper recruitment process" and vetting by the force.

Earlier in a statement Ms Barnes said Paris would "learn quickly from this".

The appointment of a youth PCC was one of Ms Barnes's main manifesto pledges in the campaign ahead of her election as Kent's first PCC in November.

She said the youth PCC would receive £15,000 for the year, part-funded from her own £85,000 salary.

This is so disgusting I just...I can't

'On Drugs?' She likes a ****ing top, stop connoting things from that you awful ******s

'On Drink?' She's ****ing 17 years old I mean get a grip and some sense of reality

'On Sex?' It's none of your ****ing business for a national newspaper to publicly print those tweets, she is allowed to be sexually active you know

'On Gay Rights?' The term 'fagg*t' has most likely been used as a general insult and whilst that's not acceptable, stop trying to make a mountain out of a molehill

**** me I hate this rag, this graphic is like all their moral panics rolled into one at the expense of a 17 year old girl. Disgusting

I think she was only attention seeking anyway, the paper will do anything to gain a few more reads, shocking.

How did anybody give her a job that involves being level headed and fair.. she's a chavvy moron

It was a kind of test

She made the tweets a year before she got the Job
ITV1 London news showed her crying.

Well, she patently failed :laugh2:

Her Kent Boss (who is on 85K)
says she keeps her Job.

Are you happy Jack?

Saw her crying on the news. It made me laugh.

Just when I thought this couldn't get any worse...the front page of the actual newspaper has printed a picture from her Twitter profile

How the **** is this acceptable? Acceptable for a national newspaper to print somebody's picture like that that they've taken from their Twitter without their permission? Acceptable for them to print it and publicly humiliate and vilify a 17 year old girl? How the **** can anybody justify that? How is that allowed to be printed?

I'm sorry but the Mail is abhorrent at the best of times but the last few weeks it has really stooped to a low that's just beyond disgusting, this, the Philpott front page and Richard Littlejohn's column that led to an innocent transgender woman taking her own life. Absolutely vile.

Excellent posts from Jack, as per usual.

She's only 17 years old and you'd be hard-pressed to find someone that age who doesn't enjoy drinking and all.

Publishing someone's tweets without permission is a violation of privacy and completely vile - however awful and inappropriate those tweets may be.

This is just another case the Mail have used to pursue their endless class war in a truly repulsive fashion. Because this girl isn't middle class, middle-aged, pure, 'respectable' and abstinent and doesn't conform to their narrow world-view, she has to be subject to this paper's public ridiculing and humiliation until she's driven to the point of suicide.

I simply cannot fathom how a national newspaper can or is allowed to print this and single innocent people out and treat them with such contempt.

Masters of deflection.

Made me laugh, too ..... :laugh2:

Its a Public Job.
I assume you Now want the lass to Keep her job?
