MP Natalie Elphicke is disgraceful!

MP for Dover and Deal Natalie Elphicke said in a chat to Tory MPs, "They lost - would it be ungenerous to suggest Rashford should have spent more time perfecting his game and less time playing politics."

Utterly disgusting and shameful from the Tory MP who's Husband Charlie Elphicke went to Prison for being a Sexual Predator. She also sold the story to The Sun for £25,000. She spends the majority of her time going on about 'illegal immigrants' coming into Dover on Dingys than actually tackling the issues that Dover has as the 4th most deprived area in Kent.

AIBU to think she is disgusting?

Pssst. If you agree and think she should resign, here is a petition to sign. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/591882/sponsors/new?token=8GUjN1JmYL7ANNRN_3nL

Like most Tory MPs then.

I think given her husband's failure to concentrate on his work and spending his time assaulting women instead, she'd have been wise to keep her mouth shut. She wouldn't even be an MP if he hadn't had to step down. I blame the constituency party for selecting her and the people who voted for her.

She's scum. Rashford isn't 'playing politics', he's making a difference in the world and setting a great example to young kids. He shows incredible maturity and compassion. All of which is alien to her and to most MPs.

Shes got some nerveAngry

AnyFucker · 12/07/2021 22:24

Hideous woman

Macncheeseballs · 12/07/2021 22:24

She's a terrible judge of character

MrsTerryPratchett · 12/07/2021 22:25

She should spend more time perfecting her politics and less on social media.

Yetano · 12/07/2021 22:26

She's lost it - would it be ungenerous to suggest Elphicke should have spent more time perfecting her political game and less time playing at being a sports commentator.

chickenyhead · 12/07/2021 22:27

She's just embarrassed because he has done more for people who need it, than she could ever dream to achieve.

Bitter, spiteful woman.

username18702 · 12/07/2021 22:27

I'd have thought she'd be kept busy opening food banks. Must be having a rest, posting bile online. Typical Tory.

Yetano · 12/07/2021 22:27

Can't sign it.

Gilead · 12/07/2021 22:28

14% racists then? 😡

Scutterbug · 12/07/2021 22:28

If we had decent politicians, others wouldn’t have to step in.

Tinysalmonswimminginastream · 12/07/2021 22:29

Meh, she can fuck off. She looks like a total bellend next to Rashford.

MrsTerryPratchett · 12/07/2021 22:30

This.

And just from a practical POV footballers can't train all the time. They'd get injured.

ssd · 12/07/2021 22:30

Honestly who voted for this bunch Angry

redcarbluecar · 12/07/2021 22:31

I assume she thought she was posting it on a private chat which would never be made public. Well, she was wrong there. It’s a revealing bit of leakage about lazy Tory prejudice. I almost enjoyed it.

RumblyMumbly · 12/07/2021 22:33

Well, if the current Government, of which she's part, were better at doing their job and didn't vote against free school meals for children in a pandemic then there would have been no need for Rashford to spend his spare time pointing out that children going hungry is shameful.

Perhaps her husband would have done a better job of being an MP if he'd practiced doing politics rather than chasing aides round the room saying 'I'm a naughty Tory' and assaulting them?

Vile the pair of them. Epitome of the nasty party.

She’s a fucking disgrace. As others have already suggested, maybe if she and her party of shithouse bastards did their jobs and took care of the most vulnerable people in our society Marcus Rashford wouldn't have to do their jobs for them and could just go about his business being a brilliant footballer and role model.

IDontReadEyebrows · 12/07/2021 22:38

*others have already said on Twitter that is.

sempiternal · 12/07/2021 22:44

Maybe if she and her colleagues had done their jobs properly, Rashford wouldn't have needed to step up and do it for them! Stupid woman.

Jackgrealishscurtains · 12/07/2021 22:50

I think she is too thick to understand the irony of this.

Someone must have leaked it from that WhatsApp group though, so either someone has it in for her, or at least one Tory MP in that group isn't a total heartless bastard!

EnjoyingTheSilence · 12/07/2021 22:52

Wondered which one or how many of them would try that.

Maybe if they spent more time trying to help people they’re supposed to help them people like Rashford wouldn’t need to.
