you can not make that joke and survive politically. but the police ??

So a non pc conservative bites the dust over a very funny gag.

Is there anything for me to add?

Yes.  Sadly it has come to this.  In a politically correct world, we are no longer allowed to lampoon the ridiculous. Or even the not so if they are members of a protected group.  Which doesn’t include Christians but then, you already knew that.
AND ....  many among the protected special groups VOTE! 

Bottom line.

Conservatives are in the same boat with libs, licking boots for votes and approval.  And for gosh sake, why would the police be involved in any way?
Welcome to the 14th year of the 21 century.

Enjoy the image folks.

Chris Joannides, councillor for Enfield, expelled from party for 12 months
He is also no longer endorsed as a candidate for May’s local elections
He shared an image on Facebook of a woman and child dressed in burkas
Caption on image compared the child to bin bags

A Tory councillor who shared an image on Facebook comparing Muslim children wearing burkas to bin bags has been kicked out of the party.

Chris Joannides, a councillor for Enfield, in north London, has been expelled from the party for 12 months and is no longer endorsed as a candidate for May’s local elections.

Mr Joannides had the whip for the Enfield Conservative Group suspended last year after he shared an image on the social networking site of a woman and child dressed in burkas standing next to two bin bags.

The image included a caption which read: ‘I saw her standing there and I told her she had three beautiful children. She didn’t have to get all p***ed off and threaten me. It was an honest mistake!’

At the time it was also reported he messaged friends during meetings with his constituents asking for updates on football scores and complaining about missing his favourite television programmes.

Mr Joannides, who is of Greek-Cypriot heritage, insisted he took his duties seriously despite the ‘blokeish banter’ written on his Facebook page and denied being Islamophobic.

A Conservative Party spokesman has now told MailOnline: ‘Cllr Chris Joannides is not endorsed as a Conservative Party Candidate in the forthcoming local government elections in the London Borough of Enfield in May 2014.  No Appeal is permitted under Party Rules.

He said he had been investigated and cleared by the local association and the police.

He said: ‘I was reselected to stand in May by the local branch. Then I got an email from Conservative Central Office at the 11th hour telling me they were suspending my membership for 12 months, effectively barring me from standing.

‘The rug has been pulled away from me.’

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
