| New Addington residents under attack by Labour |
The Croydon Labour party is facing fresh pressure to apologise to
the residents of New Addington, after one of its most prominent activists branded the
area ‘a hole’. The comments came from Christian Wilcox, who claims in online
comments to be part of the Labour
party’s training team, triggered outrage on social networking sites.
Responding to the attack on New Addington, the area he grew up in,
Councillor Tony Pearson tweeted, “Labour show what they really think about #NewAddington.
They call it 'a hole'. Disgrace.”
What was a disgrace was the highly personal attack on Wilcox in the Council Chamber on 24 March with personal details being discussed and not stopped by the Mayor. Wilcox was not there to try and have the opportunity to respond.
