Dead Tory MP found at Glastonbury

[firky]

Sort of makes up for U2

A senior member of David Cameron's Tory constituency died today in a portable toilet at Glastonbury Festival.

Christopher Shale, the chairman of West Oxfordshire Conservative Association, suffered a heart attack, sources believe.

'Wait, he's a member of a political party I don't like and disagrees with my opinions? Good thing he died a premature death, then!'

When political parties have a history of being racist, homophobic (and making them their policies), and only really exist to secure the position of the bourgeois through state violence / oppression, then yes, one less of them is a good thing IMO. I respect their right to exist as a political party as much as I do the BNPs but that does not mean I respect them.

Coupled with the fact I doubt you'd be defending people like Augusto Pinochet - (a good friend of maggies) or Nick Griffin for that matter if either of them went to an early death in a porta-loo.

And just because you don't respect them doesn't mean it's a good thing that they've died. If you're really this much better than him, you wouldn't be cheering about his death.

Just because I don't defend them doesn't mean I'm going to stoup to their level.

Too much cocaine?

[catmartin]

Before the guy was named, Steve Brookstein (XFactor Winner, real life loser) was saying on Twitter "50 year old found dead at Glastonbury. Please please please please let it be Louis Walsh"

[DRTY]

So because he's a conservative you're glad he's dead? Seems a little much.

[wubstep]

Firky in "controversial twat" shocker.

It's pathetic mate, I hate Tories and everything they stand for, but I wouldn't never wish/celebrate a family man dying fairly gruesomely on holiday.

Too much cocaine?

My mum brought this up and my parents start going "Ooh I wonder whether substances were involved" ffs don't they have better things to talk about like the wider ramifications of having a politician suddenly die than idle tittle-tattle about orbituaries?

because he's a politician, would of been even better if it was a pig! or a top banker
