Spingtime for Harrogate

Post by spot »

What a plonker...The leader of Harrogate Borough Council has been suspended from the Conservative Party after being photographed dressed as Adolf Hitler. Mike Gardner, who was pictured giving a Nazi salute at a fancy dress party, said he had done "nothing wrong".

[...]The images were taken from a Facebook page, which Mr Gardner said was a "total violation of my privacy".

He said: "I am a councillor who represents the people, politics is not my thing, serving the people is my game. I am disgusted about what the Conservatives have decided to do. I serve the people of Harrogate and serve them very well actually. If I have gone wrong I will apologise now to the people of Harrogate, if I have offended them in any way."

I wonder whether any Jews live in Harrogate?

When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.
