So is the whole Tudor Evans Twitter comment really worth getting upset about? After all, nobody seemed too bothered when he called the same candidate ‘a massive knob’ a few weeks back.
As Evans’ Twitter followers will already know, the comment says: ‘Nazi nobjockey trying to stop the merger. So far hes got slow handclapped and ironic claps when he sat down.’
Ironic claps, eh? What do they sound like, then?
It’s interesting that no-one appears to have a problem with the ‘Nazi’ part of the insult – we guess that’s taken as read with the BNP.
Vivien Pengelly (who, let’s not forget, was having a go at Linda Gilroy only a couple of weeks ago) seems more upset about the ‘nobjockey’ bit.
We’re not sure the insult really refers to ‘sexual orientation’ (as reported by thisisplymouth) so much as the fact Tudor thinks the BNP fella’s a bit of a dolt.
Evans insists it was a comment made on a personal site but @CouncillorTudor has 358 followers and clearly states ‘Leader of the Labour Group of Plymouth City Councillors’ at the top of the page.
Perhaps he has 358 close friends he likes to keep in touch with…
Nevertheless, an undeterred Evans is still tweeting away in earnest – in fact, he hasn’t even bothered to remove the controversial comment. You’ve got to kind of admire that stubborness, haven’t you?
