Johnny Vegas leads backlash against Tory MP who disrespected Remembrance Day and muted her critics

Maria Caulfield: She likes to talk, but it seems she’s less keen to listen.

Remember “poppy fascist” Maria Caulfield, the Tory MP for Lewes who tried to score a political point by highlighting a lack of poppies in a photo of Labour activists out campaigning?

This site ran a story about her here.

Well, it seems she doesn’t have the sense to shut up – quite the opposite, in fact. She has muted her critics so she doesn’t have to read their responses to her idiocy.

Here’s her reaction:

No – it leaves people with a genuine grievance talking to the world, while Mrs Caulfield has excluded herself.

Prominent among them is comic Johnny Vegas, who tweeted the following in response to her original tweet:

That is not trolling. Nor is his reaction to Mrs Caulfield’s latest atrocity:

Looking at the above, I would argue that Johnny Vegas would be a better representative of the public than Mrs Caulfield. Don’t you agree?

Let’s have a look at some of the other comments that Mrs Caulfield has denied herself:

Oh dear. So she has achieved the exact opposite of her ambition. Instead of making Labour look bad, she has reminded us all of the failings of her own party in government.

Oh dear. So she has made herself look insensitive and ignorant.

Oh dear. So everyone can talk about her behind her back – perhaps encouraging others to withdraw support from her at the next election?

And those are just three of the tweets in the thread that Mrs Caulfield isn’t reading.

This Writer would certainly encourage you to visit it yourself – just click on her tweet, above.

    i share her views on a mute button, think it is a great idea, they need one for politicians who mouth’s open before there brain engages or lies, other than that sack them, I don’t think you see much support for the vote leave crew anyway for the amount of lies they pedalled

    Nasty arrogant woman. Well done to Johnny and the others who have brought her down a peg.
