...So I took her to Bradford

Friday, October 18, 2024 7:05

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

It was a joke in the Viz comic, decades ago, about a guy whose girlfriend asked him to kiss her where it smells

As time has passed, all Bradford seems to have done is become smellier. As this Yorkshire Live article from my MSM feed shows, the place has become such a dung heap, the smell will probably never wash out

West Yorkshire pensions debate in chaos as protestors chant ‘how many kids have you killed’

Just take a minute to guess who the protestors were aiming these comments at and what the context was

Police were called to a Bradford Council meeting after protestors interrupted with chants of ‘how many kids have you killed’ during a discussion over pensions.

Because pensions kill kids

It came after Independent Councillor David Ward introduced a motion calling for the West Yorkshire Pension Fund to reveal if any companies they invested in were “complicit in the Genocide being committed in Gaza.”

So many questions. The first being, what on Earth has Gaza got to do with David Ward from West Yorkshire, and why is a local councillor trying to play global statesman?

The second is, why does this muppet think Israel defending itself from terrorists amounts to genocide? There’s a lot of it about though

Get ready for a laugh

But before the motion was even discussed, the meeting had to be paused as supporters interrupted proceedings while council leaders were questioned about residential parking permits. Unfurling banners, including one starkly reading: “profits covered in Palestinian blood”, protestors then began shouting phrases like “How do you sleep at night?” and “How many kids have you killed today?”

The meeting was paused as police and security officers tried to calm the scene. The protesters were eventually escorted out of the public gallery.

The protestors were protesting FOR the thing that was actually happening. The protestors support the motion, but disrupted proceeding to the point where the police were called, delaying the thing they wanted from happening

I’m of the opinion that you’d have to be fairly dense to protest in favour of Gaza, but this mob is so dense, they can’t even see when they’re getting what they want

But the biggest clown of the day is Mr Ward, the nutter who brought this motion. He appears to have no idea of what he’s talking about. Maybe he’s just arse licking the local demographic in the hope for votes?

Cllr Ward said: “This motion is only asking us to ensure West Yorkshire Pension Fund complies with our country’s own foreign policy.

I’m not sure what he thinks is UK foreign policy?

Not investing in Isreal?

Not investing in people who do business with Isreal?

Not selling weapons to Isreal, maybe?

Not giving UK pensioners the best value on their investments?

Actually, none of the above is UK foriegn policy, or any other policy

Anyone who fails to do whatever they can to stop the Israeli aggression is complicit

Then call me complicit. I don’t think they’re the agressive ones

Anyone who votes against our motion is helping Israel breach humanitarian law

Really. I would argue that defending yourself from murderous terrorists is fundamental to humanitarian law

It is against the law for you to vote against our motion tonight

No it isn’t. That statement is so laughable…

But there’s a ray of light

But councillors hit back at the substance and timing of his motion. Councillor Rebecca Poulsen, Leader of the Conservatives, said: “Bringing this motion when we’ve just had the anniversary of that appalling attack shows how blinkered and unfit to be a public servant you are.
“Your supporters earlier tonight led to the chamber being cleared.

True dat. I really think that local councillors who try to get involved in world affairs should be thrown out of office. You should have to take a pledge to look after the interests of your local constituents only, and keep your beak out of larger affairs. Particularly if you are so ignorant about them

“The members of the pension fund have the right to have their pensions be well managed.

“I’ve spoken to Council leaders across the country, and they ask why Bradford Council spend so much time debating the Middle East when they have so many of their own issues.”

I find myself liking her

Councillor Andrew Thornton (Lab, Royds) described the motion as “an attempt to institute sanctions on a local level.” He noted that Councillors did not influence the investments made by the Fund, stating: “Whilst Bradford administers the fund, we are not in control of the investment. The Council cannot decide where investment goes.

So there is some knowledge and sense left in Bradford, if only a small pool

Cllr Ward’s proposal was ultimately rejected…

It was the only option. And Mr Ward has only embarrassed himself, although I doubt he will see that

Deport him to Gaza

It seems they’ve been throuigh this crap in the past, but with fossil fuels and climate change.

There’s always something…
