More Proud than Ashamed……

By their friends, shall you know them
Local radio talk-show star Mike ‘Jedi’ Mendoza has been welcomed back into the Conservative forcefield by ‘Towerblock’ Tim Loughton and Dr Liam, ‘can’t wait till après-Dave’, Fox. He is the ‘celebrity’ candidate in the May Local Elections. But Mike emits a malodorous counter-melody to David Cameron’s ‘new conservatism’ siren-song of tolerance and inclusion. His run-in with Ofcom over his gratuitously offensive broadcast remarks that equated gays with paedophiles is, I fear, something he is more proud than ashamed of. Make what you want of the ‘glamour’ pics draped over his MySpace page.
Dr Fox, wannabe Defence Secretary, should examine his conscience over his apparent approval of someone who appears alongside Saddam Hussein apologist ‘Gorgeous’ George Galloway on Iranian backed Press TV. This, after all, the Iran that trained the Iraqi insurgents and now the Taliban terrorists, to assemble and plant the ‘IED’s (Improvised Explosive Devices) to murder and mutilate our soldiers. The Iran that is sworn to the destruction of Israel and the genocide of its people, the Iran the world is desperately trying to stop developing the nuclear weapons which it will use to do just that.
The shadow Defence Secretary and the Local MP presumably find the ex-UKIP candidate usefully in tune both with their own visceral anti-europeanism and the need to shore up their vote in a tight election. And fair enough: along with UKIP members and activists, Mike Mendoza is a natural fit with traditional Tory values. But is this shock-jock, with the curious world view and unsavoury collegues, a man who seems to think atheism is a religion, really the appropriate candidate to serve and represent the interests of our community ?
