Credit where it's due though.

He stepped down as he 'didn't want to embarrass Mr Corbyn in any other way'.

I would say that Mr C has embarrassed himself on countless occasions!!!

I don't see that there is any credit due to anyone here, especially the Labour Party who are obviously so desperate for support they will accept anyone, no questions asked.

Some folk aren't worth £3....

"It sounds like the right thing has been done," he said. "It is regrettable that he saw fit to join the Labour Party but I would not support a system where political parties have to background check members before they join."


No background checks.

People in glasshouses, etc, etc !

Lets not play ping-pong here with different Parties and there cupboard skeletons !

Bit more than a skeleton Mickey so I am not surprised you are trying to divert and downplay.
I would have though you of all people would, like me, have been disgusted.

Thank goodness other labourites see what has happed and are doing something about it.

Mikey, in light of your multiple damning posts on the subject of paedophiles, I find your blasé response here utterly shocking. Clearly your principles leave much to be desired.

So have you resigned from the Labour party yet, Tora :-)

I think he's a man of some notoriety. If he'd attempted to join somewhere near the Westminster Village he'd likely have been refused. But distant Cumbria is a different matter. He's out now. That's what matters.
