The pub patrons thought it was no big deal though.
What a dick
Wait, where’s the video?
Do I want to see some MP’s junk? Well, no, but now I’ve read about it, so I might as well. Besides, he has conditionally apologized, but I haven’t been given any offense (or, rather, offence), so the apology is not activated. I just want to see what all the fuss is about. OH, OK, YES I WANT TO SEE HIS JUNK, GODDAMMIT!
Anyone else notice that he looks like one of those not-quite-right AI generated faces?
If only he’d stuck it in a dead pig’s mouth he could’ve been prime minister by now
James Grundy, putting the “member” in MP since 2007.
Cocktail sausage anyone?
Weird flex, but ok
Somehow that is not what I think of when the word “conservative” comes up. But a good many conservatives are hypocrites, so there’s that.
At least he apologized. In the US if a Republican member of Congress did the same thing he would respond with a passive aggressive non-pology like
“I am sorry you felt offended by my actions…”
You should see his dick. I hear the horror of it gives Harvey Weinstein’s a run for its money.
Small beer, is that what you’re saying?
At this point I think it might be more like, “You want to stop me from showing my dick? What happened to free speech?!?”
Richard.
I must be in the minority or at least it might be because I’m not a Conservative but I’ve never had the urge to expose my penis in public and I’m a male gay furry trash.
Although I imagine it would be a pain, given the costume.
According to the BBC article, a woman in the video can be heard telling him to lift his shirt so she can see his junk. Sounds like just a drunken escapade, no one got hurt. No different than a woman flashing her breasts. I wouldn’t have apologized.
I know I could be wrong, but you don’t hold an elected office, do you?
I’d say that such behavior coming from an conservative politician doesn’t surprise me. Toxic masculinity seems to be important part of “conservative” lifestyle.
