Revolting messages from these right wing 'activists' they need to rename their group 'activhate' it's much more apt. The conservatives have already sought to distance itself from it. So much for engaging with young people eh? :/



Young Tory activists caught discussing 'gassing chavs' and 'shooting peasants' in leaked WhatsApp group
Members discussed 'chavocide' and conducting 'experiments to see why they breed so much despite living rough'


The conversation, which has now been leaked, took place in a group chat described as a “professional discussion board” for activists communicating about how to help the Tories win the next election.

The revelation comes as a new Tory-supporting youth group, called Activate, was launched to try to engage young people in politics in a similar way to Momentum, the left-wing Labour campaign organisation. However, the group’s social media launch was widely ridiculed for its overuse of hashtags and memes.

Guido Fawkes, which published the leaked messages, said the WhatsApp group was used as a “precursor” to the Activate group.

During the conversation, one member refers to an event as a “fine opportunity to observe the spice homo chav”.

Another immediately replies: “And gas them all.”

The first activist then jokes that he or she is “gonna run some medical experiments on them” before the second adds: “We could use them as substitutes for animals when testing.”

Tory Activate stole their name from us Lib Dems who have an organisation but it's just basically a youth conference

How can you tell they are right wing?

Could be lefties posting the messages for all you know.

I agree... turns out the end result of getting more people engaged with politics has been the whole thing from top to bottom descending into thick tribalism and wargames. Thanks, social media.

'Gassing chavs' and 'shooting peasants'?

Snobby posh twats.Are these all Oxbridge students?

[DemolitionRed]

They are too stupid to realize that most of these people they want to gas and shoot are May supporters too.

I lived with a Tory Jr in my second year at Uni who pretty much talked like that and it definitely wasn't Oxbridge...

He was mostly joking though. Mostly. He was from a very well off family / privately educated etc. though. So he probably did mean it. But you know. Tongue in cheek. But actually would do it also.

We have some friends who declare they are poor when they get down to their last Łmillion in savings. They are lovely people in many respects but they really don't have a clue when it comes to people getting stuck in the poverty trap. They really do believe that everyone has the same opportunities and say stupid things like, "if poor people were more willing to save they would have money for food when things get extra tough"

Yeah that's pretty hard if you don't have anything to save in the first place.

It's never pleasant when anyone says that kind of thing from any political party, group or even an individual. It's also quite low to imply that the people they view as worth gassing are voters in their own party. This seems to say that you also find these people they call chav beneath contempt. It's not cool, nice nor appropriate no matter who is saying it and in any context.

Statistics don’t lie The 2015 Ipsos pole showed it was the unemployed and working class electoral voters who kept Labour out of power and it’s the unemployed and working class voter some rich people and even other working class people call chavs and peasants. I don’t btw. I think there is nothing more abhorrent than the words ‘chav’ and 'peasant'

You know, I don’t mind debating this but I can’t debate it if you are going to get all offended by my use of words. The truth is, there is no other way to say it, but there is a reason why the poor working class are more likely to vote UKIP or Tory and I’m happy to talk about my views on why that is.

Key word


I don't think there's anything to worry yourselves about here, keep calm, my guess is that they're not serious. And if they are serious, then what are they gonna do? As if they could.

Sounds like the reason why the 'poor and working class' don't vote for Labour is because they don't trust them to deliver for them - Labour's history has spoken!

Also confirms what many have said that many PC lefties are from more 'privileged' backgrounds who like to back a 'cause' with their heads right up there in the clouds.

Nah, just people who understand what the fcuks really going on. People who understand the methods used to control much of the population. The only difference between you and me is, I can see it, you can't.

I don't want my kids growing up as consumer slaves or living in this re-shaped reality. I want them to question what their masters are up to and I want them to fight, if need be, for 'real' democracy and not just an illusion of what they think democracy is. I don't want my kids going through life as consumer slaves crippled with debt, unable to afford medical insurance, unable to afford a half decent roof over their heads. I want my kids to have the same opportunities my parents had... is that so wrong?

Your comment about walking around with ones head in a cloud is probably the oddest and confusing thing I've seen you write about someone who shows political concerns. What on earth are you suggesting?

I can see the manipulation of the far-left and their airy fairy ideologies often without much in the way of real life experience.

We all want the best for out kids we just have different views on how to achieve that. Like many, I do not believe we will have such security under a current Labour government. I think Corbyn and his 'ideology' will be the ruin of this country.
