I had the distinct displeasure of a personal run-in with Norris several years ago, back when he had the gall to slither his way into a protest event—not to support the cause, of course, but to bask in the camera flashes like the shameless careerist parasite he is. He showed up with the smug, hollow grin of a man who’s never worked a real day in his life, sniffing around for a photo op to pad his public image and polish his self-righteous credentials.
I wasn't in the mood for farce that day—and never have been, frankly—so I called him out to his face. No vague insinuations, no polite euphemisms. I looked him dead in the eye and accused him of being just another “kiddy-fiddling champagne socialist”
And wouldn’t you know it—once again, my finely tuned diddler radar proved tragically accurate. There’s a certain stink these people carry, masked by their PR handlers and recycled platitudes, but it’s there for those with the stomach to notice. In hindsight, it was less an accusation and more a grim prophecy. The type always reveals itself eventually—when the headlines catch up to what anyone with functioning instincts already knew.
It’s almost impressive, in a sick way, how reliably these ghouls confirm the worst suspicions about them. And yet the public, glassy-eyed and docile, keeps lining up to vote for them, to clap for them, to excuse them. Norris was never an aberration—just another brick in the wall of this decaying system, painted with a fresh coat of moral posturing and hiding rot underneath.
That's a fantastic comment, thank you! This whole affair, which for me has occurred in a matter of weeks in terms of any connection I've had with this man, has certainly heightened my awareness of my own spidey senses. When I read he'd been a child protection officer my heart sank - it is all just so obvious. I'm actually quite confident we are going to see more of this shit coming out on the surface as the authoritarianism is ramped up. We're going to need some very strong stomachs.
Oh Geoff, I think that's really key - thank you! I mean, it can also be obvious from a screen when you are aware of the power of the image, but to get that visceral, embodied sense of someone you need to be 'in-person' with them. We are kept so remote from the numpties who purport to rule our lives and with or without screens this has been normal for centuries, of course. Statues of leaders like Alexander or the pharaohs, the ruler's head on coins and stamps - the image on the screen isn't much different in its intended effect.
Excellent! Please keep going, I'm desperate to see you come out victorious over the Bristol and other areas in danger of succumbing to LTN lunacy.
This is another example of people of the worst morals and the wrong policies having the power to do the most ridiculous and divisive things to their constituents.
Thanks for your well-researched commentary on this reprehensible character Helen. The first news of the allegations against him we're a shock, but not altogether a surprise. This sort of background for current government officials is following an unsavoury pattern that should make everyone start to question the narrative that is being fed to us from main stream media.
It really wasn't possible to dig up that much about him, but his reputation as a bully in office is already clear. What we so need to be looking at is why we mindlessly vote for such people and give them positions of power in the first place, when we can hardly move ourselves for all the health and safety legislation clogging up our lives. Something needs to give.
I wonder if a candidate can ever be adequately vetted? I also wonder if some further up knew exactly what he's really about? And further how this game may be used to force through digital ID - for said adequate vetting and 'our safety'?

The public see these people on a screen but rarely in real life. Sadly

The Labour Party should be taken to task fir their inadequate candidate vetting.
