Lord Freud

This Time It’s Politicians, The Media AND The Twitterati.

It is like bees to honey, more like flies to a corpse. A reasonable proposal, taken out of context, not really even a slip of the tongue, just deliberate distortion by a nasty side of Britain that sickens me.

Lord Freud Has Nothing To Apologise For.

It is reasonable, intelligent and compassionate to suggest that disabled people might benefit from work in which they could not justify payment of the minimum wage but which the state could top-up to that level.

The abuse levelled at this man by attention-seeking politicians, opportunistic disability rights campaigners and other parasites is disgusting.  It seems any excuse is good enough now to target individuals.

Jim Davidson, Dave Lee Travis, Brooks Newmark, Lord Freud – all far from perfect, unlike those who criticise them of course.  All undeserving of such focused abuse.

This is an aggressive, spiteful side of Britain in 2014 which I really don’t like.
