Ben Bradley Mayor Candidate

AIBU to think that someone who suggests, in reference to the unemployed, that:

"The vast sea of unemployed wasters" should have vasectomies.

In my opinion Ben Bradley is not a suitable mayoral candidate for the East Midlands.

Although he later apologised for his frankly sick suggestion, which stinks of nazi eugenics, I don't think public comments of this nature can just be brushed under the carpet and reveal the sort of man he is. AIBU?

Who is he? Sounds charming.

@Abhannmor he is the Tory MPfor Mansfield (my birthplace home town) right next to 30p Lee Anderson's constituency. Quite a brave/foolhardy thing to say as he will have plenty of his voters in that position!! He is an absolute full of himself jumped up Apprentice candidate type and more fool the voters in that area voting for him

"which stinks of nazi eugenics"

Why mention the Nazis?

Many socialists supported eugenics.

They did. As did feminists like Marie Stopes. It was all the rage , the new social Darwinism. But let's face it the Nazis took it to a whole different level.
