You've got it all wrong - she had no respect for him so he taught her some!
When he's out on parole I'm sending him off to Sion Simon to teach him diplomacy and the deployment of wit.

Is this cause for a grudging respect?..... At least he had the decency to resign……

Is Mr Haw a Scot and is he related to John Reid.

After punching an 83 year old in the face I would consider falling on his sword literally rather than figuratively to be showing decency.

South Derbyshire MP, Mark Todd, goes to Linton to find out the secret of happiness in later life



Mark Todd, MP for South Derbyshire, is joining the WRVS Linton Happy Circle on Thursday 26 January, to find out more about how older people in Linton are making the most of their retirement through the social club.

Probably not getting a smack in the gob aged 83 would probably be a late life happiness priority.

Why, did he shag her?

The argument was about parking. Mr Haw was merely reacting to NuLabs new get tough policy on illegal parking. Tough on bad parking, Tough on elderly widows who park opposite my house partially blocking my driveway.

The other day Labour and the Mirror said the Tories were a dirty racist party over an email a Tory councillor forwarded on...so I suppose those cunts at the Mirror and Labour will be saying how Labour are all ciminal old lady beaters?

Has he had his membership of Labour suspended or withdrawn?

Did a search of the BBC website.

No mention whatsoever.

How unsurprising!

Well, im sure if it was a bnp councillor the "odious thug" would be plastered all over the media, but hey its only New Labour, a party where even their deputy leader can attack members of the public without much of a problem, again imagine if the deputy leader of the BNP had landed a right hook on a member of the public live on air!

if he had been a BNP candidate he would probably have shared his parking space with the old lady.
If she contacts her prospective BNP candidate might he be persuaded to teach the thug a lesson?

Bit late on this Guido. Anyway, interestingly he was paid for a couple of months by the taxpayer while he was in prison. He also ram raided littlewoods in Burton town centre.

Lovely chap.

"BNP candidate would share the parking space"? You must be joking! BNP councillors can't even find the money to pay their council house rent let alone running a car.

Someone should run the full story then on how Haw was paid to be a Labour councillor while on remand for criminal damage and assault and how Labour was indifferent to this thug continuing to represent a Labour ward. Possibly having 2 criminal cases about Labour in the press at once is a bit too much for the Bleating Blair Corporation though.

Incidentally Mark Todd might want to rethink his promotional PDF files, given the unfortunate promotor note at the foot of each page,

Promoted by Doug Haw, 37 Market St, Church Gresley, Swadlincote DE11 9PR on behalf of Mark Todd MP

Only a year behind on this one then Mr Fawkes?

By the way, he 'resigned' after 'discussions' with the Leader (another twat) of the Labour Council Group.

Not only was he being paid for being a councillor, but Mark Todd's Parliamentry expenses we're being used to pay him while he was in Prison. I tried to raise this with the national press at the time but they didn't want to know. Who says there is bias in the media??? Wish I'd contacted Guido at the time.

Relax everyone, South Derbyshire is a very marginal seat, Todd and his cronies will be swept out in 2009.

I assume this is the same Doug Haw then who started a fight (the police were called) with Edwina Currie when she visited Staffordshire University Freshers Fair back in 1995/6 to help out the Tory students there. Doug Haw was a union sabbatical there at the time.

Alas I don't seem to be able to find a record of it on the internet, but I know it was covered by a few national papers at the time. Unfortunately their online archives don't go back that far.

You are absolutly right anders it is the same bloke. The best of his political career is now behind him. I wonder if mark todd has remployed him but on a different basis?

Anonymous said...

I think the burton newspaper also alledged he was banned from the very town centre he representated his ward at council meetings in. I suppose he was investigating asbo's?

It would be interesting to see if the voting record of mark todd mp on alchol liciencing, violent crime, asbo enforcement and the cica are in any way inflienced by his former employees behaviour.

I looked at the 'they work for you sight' and it showed that Mark Todd dogmatically followed the labour whip and implemented socially damaging legislation that his former employee (haw)is the living personification of why such laws should not be implemented. Todd voted in parliament after haw's first violent incident.

Given the wasted public funds in paying haw and the missed opportunnity for mark todd to legislate from a posion as a witness to the self destruction of haw - does this not impeach his judgement?
