Quote: Jack Napier "It's not whataboutery, the whole reason for Johnson's visit was hospital-related. Our Conservative MP, who accompanied him, is lobbying for a new hospital. Him getting a positive impression of the town makes it more likely for that to happen, regardless of the fact a new hospital for us is well overdue.
As I said, things are never that black or white but I mentioned in my first post in this thread where my vote went. But I think that is irrelevant here. We live in a democracy and this country, and this town, gave him more votes than anyone else.
I just find it hard to be angry at the club for a photo op with the man the town voted for.'"
The crux of the matter remains that Warrington RLFC gave a political platform to a divisive, unprincipled, serial liar and no amount of your whataboutary changes that.
You talk about democracy, but this guy has redefined “do as I say not as I do” semi- authoritarianism as democracy, a decent guy would have resigned by now, but the likes of Andy Carter reject the opportunity to remove him from the office he disgraces.
To suggest that it should be acceptable to the Warrington public along the last national election voting lines is pathetic and desperate.
Quite clearly the big majority of the Warrington voters , including many decent conservative voters, will be appalled with Warrington RLFC in supporting this shoddy attempt at vote garnering for Andy Carter in the Warrington RLFC fan base
Indeed local democracy totally rejects the guy and what he stands for.
But at least Johnson will be pleased he can rely on you.
Warrington RLFC should hang their heads in shame
