To NOT want a public enquiry into the minister 'pleb' calling incident?

[Liketochat1]

Is it just me who doesn't want tax payer's money spent on an investigation into this incident? As far as I can understand two men got into an unpleasant exchange and the Tory minister was very rude. He has now apologized and this has been accepted.
I think David Cameron is right not to press for a public enquiry or a sacking. Why is this still front page news?

Im with you. He should just be sacked without one. We should trust the words of the offended party - the police officer in question.

I think everyone should get a grip.

This is so far from newsworthy.

How is calling someone a pleb a sackable offence?

Would you be happy to be called a pleb by Mr Mitchell Exit, while you were doing your job?
Especially when that job was protecting that mp's arse?

Calling someone a pleb isn't a sackable offence.

Outing yourself as someone who thinks it is appropriate to speak to any member of the public like that, Let alone a police officer who is doing their job as instructed, however, proves that you are not fit to represent the people of this country.

He should absolutely be sacked.

He's not a hero. He's a complete fucking tosser and should be sacked. I suspect that Camoron has equal contempt for us plebeians, but I am waiting to be proved wrong.

He says he didn't call policemen plebs. Maybe he called them something else which sounded like plebs. Still well out of order though.

No I wouldn't, but I would stand my ground and argue with him.

But I do not believe it is not a sackable offence.

Ignore the second not.

^no, you were right first time with the double negative.

No I wasn't

Nothing wrong with public enquiries. A public Inquiry may be excessive.

Pedant.

Oh, I just typed that without my glasses and it came out as peanut....

exit.
He was talking about most of us on this thread though.
Unless you're a public school Oxbridge educated millionaire with a toff background. To people like him, we're all plebs.
And I'm sure that he'd think that about the ordinary conservative voter too.

I really, really hope the ordinary Conservative voters of Sutton Coldfield will remember this and at least stay at home if they can't stop being sado-masochistic berks

I've read all your comments. Pleased to see so many of you didn't think I was unreasonable! Good to see a range of views discussed though.
