Alphazebra Report post Posted September 24, 2005 A council spokeswoman said: "He recognised he'd said something deeply inappropriate that could cause offence and resigned straight away." I just like the bit where the council spokeswomen is quoted as saying the above. "Could cause offence" - thats an understatement if ever I heard one. I've gotta laugh about it or I'd cry.

mandyque Report post Posted September 24, 2005 He's lucky there weren't any parents of disabled children in his audience when he said that or he'd be nursing a black eye at least by now, I know I don't think I would have held back and I'm not a violent person!

katkin Report post Posted September 24, 2005 How would he feel if the NHS wanted to cut funding for the elderly or called for compulsory euthanasia for all over 75? Especially as he's 79. Perhaps he's not heard of "people in glass houses etc.." This is bigotry at its worst. kat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
call me jaded Report post Posted September 24, 2005 I wonder, seeing as he feels so strongly about it, whether he would be willing to give up his GP's pension (such a drain on the NHS budget) to help all those poor people waiting for cancer treatment. Scum! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarerQuie Report post Posted September 24, 2005 Perhaps the ignorant old fool should suffer that fate himself,then he won't end up on a Hospital waiting list because if the parents of disabled children get hold of him,he certainly will!!!xx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scudgie Report post Posted September 26, 2005 hiya all not been on for a while been a bit down but feelin much better or was till i read that article. That sort of thinking is nothing short of that of hitler himself. I hope this person(as he is no man in my eyes) burns in hell for all eternity for what he said, since last being on i took a job as an lsa at my sons school and work with children with all kinds of disabilitys from the ones who will go on to lead quite independant lives to the kids that may learn very little but have great social interaction everyday how dare he dismiss these kids. I hope he didnt think like this as a gp but my heart sinks coz i know he probably did anyway all its good to be bk take care sharon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
