Some would think that Loughton is just using this as another attempt to prove that he isn't racist, when the majority of locals who express this "UKIP" attributed view, actually voted for him, and the person he quotes probably did vote for him at the last election.
If the Tories concentrated on solving the housing crisis and hadn't criminalised squatting, there would be no need for Big-Issue sellers of any nationality or heritage, that said, did anyone actually check any of the Big-Issue sellers passports to check if they were British or not, or did they just assume that a slightly darker skin hue and hint of an accent was clear proof of non British citizenship? Personally O have spoken to most of the sellers in the square, and have found them all to be very amiable, only last week one told me that it was really nice to have a local person smile and say hello, and I guess to simply acknowledge them as a fellow human being, the Tory voting locals on the whole are incredibly rude to these people and would rather not have them there at all.
I wonder if Loughton and the councillors even considered getting an extra coffee on their run to the sandwich shop? Considering that they complained heartily even though they only had to be out there for a couple of hours, the homeless don't have the choice, but that would rely on any of them having compassion for a fellow human being, something that they seem to have mislaid.
But they're definitely not racist, oh no, that's UKIP you're thinking of.
