'Execute travellers' Tory councillor Alan Mellins suspended

A Tory councillor from Berkshire who joked that travellers refusing eviction should be "executed" has been suspended by his party.

Cox Green councillor Alan Mellins made the remark at a Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead council meeting on Monday.

He later apologised and said the remark was not to be taken seriously.

(continued, killing joke....he almost looks English for a kraut....)

That seems to be stock excuse these days ... the Russian tennis official who called the Williams sisters dudes tried the same trick. :tea:

There are good ones. Old style Tories out there, somewhere. Some keep sound accounts too. You need a filter before sending them to the wall? :nono:

These travellers want a free life, but don't want to work for it.

Someone should tell them, that work makes you free.

It's all part of taking care of their welfare. In addition to providing a healthy diet showers should be provided for their hygiene and gas heaters to keep them warm.

Then we can go after The Tories utilising the same technique. The revolution eats its own. :read:

I think that we have there all the ingredients of the final solution of the traveller problem.

Now, we need to sort out these pesky Russians.

It is, as I said, all about welfare. Here is an example of revolutionaries taking care taking care of each other: The French wanted to give Robespierre a close shave in order to ensure that he looks his best during his next speech at the forthcoming meeting at the Jacobin's Club. It's only because of an unfortunate malfunction of the guillotine that caused Robespierre to lose his head instead.
