He would say that wouldn’t he. His wording is interesting. He didn’t deny bullying. Just said the Guardian didn’t find him guilty of bullying. Well having seen the Savile documentary last night, not being found guilty by your employer is no guarantee of innocence

there’s something about the guy that’s thouroughly unpleasant He has the aura of a mummy's boy who was spoilt, overindulged and never told he was in the wrong by his parents as they were scared of his tantrums. Interesting that his alleged antics are online. He wouldn't do it in the flesh, a strong breeze would blow him over!

So many of these entitled lot around who have never been told no before and assume they can impose their view of things on others with no comeback. Stick him on a building site or a factory floor and I reckon he would be sparko on his back within ten minutes where someone will have had enough and put him down.

Working with young people though in his 30s he’s a characature of a good few graduates coming out of uni now where they think they should never be challenged and they’re never wrong.

Working with young people though in his 30s he’s a characature of a good few graduates coming out of uni now where they think they should never be challenged and they’re never wrong. I can relate to this and it’s obvious that some have never had to deal with conflict, something challenging or unpleasant. I’ve been able to have frank discussions with some about having to deal with difficult situations and how have they managed it before; the answers on occasions has been they haven’t as they have been told either by parents or in education to avoid it if it’s something you don’t like or are uncomfortable with! I was astonished at first and thought it was a one off, but it wasn’t and there are a number of individuals out there who have avoided tackling problems, mainly involving other people. It shows so clearly when they won’t challenge unacceptable behaviour in a workplace or elsewhere, or a difficult problem that requires emotional intelligence. They remain however content to offer an opinion from the safety of the sidelines 😂. I am fearful for some as to how on earth they will ever build resilience and what use they would be in even the mildest of crisis.

You see it in the wider world- people wanting others banned/blocked/unfriended/de-platformed, or trigger warnings present, because someone has a different opinion on a certain topic and they aren't used to being challenged as they've not experienced it before. Like a virus, the best way to handle it is to expose yourself to it, rather than hiding away in a little bubble Veruca Salt Syndrome I call it, if you know your Roald Dahl 😀

Well he was violently assaulted by a white supremacist in a homophobic attack so he does have some experience being sparko on his back........ In that case it makes his behaviour all the more unconscionable given his experience. There's nothing to say that his verbal insults or accusations couldn't have led to the targets of his insults being physically threatened or attacked also.

Dislike is a bit strong, but on a number of issues he's tried to blow with the wind and it's bitten him on the arse. The Labour antisemitism issues would be the obvious one, he's very keen to point out some of the hypocrisy and inconsistencies that have since surfaced but alas that ship has already sailed. There are other examples as well, he's not alone in this by the way a journalist prepared to stand by their beliefs even if it's not the popular take is as rare as rocking horse shit these days........

Here's a stat for you... The number of lesbian, gay and bisexual people who have experienced a hate crime or incident in the last year because of their sexual orientation has risen 78% from 9% in 2013 to 16% in 2017. [Source – YouGov, 2017 poll of 5,000 LGBT adults] Pretty fucking shameful stat isn't it.
