Iain Dale swears at Hopi Sen. You’ve only got to mention the word “Maidstone” these days and the poor fellow flies off the handle. Reading the exchange on Hopi’s blog has convinced me that I should get the transcript of the BBC appearance where he defended Nigel Hastilow’s comments.

I love watching Iain squirm under a bit of pressure – which is why part of me wants him to become an MP, he’s going to be rubbish at it!
Any idea when the selection will happen and/or who the other runners and riders are? Are they ready for another strange old women?
Tom, I think you and everyone else really has to try and separate what was said by Nigel, why he said it, and how he said it. The fact that his own constituency chairwoman said he was just representing the views of his local constituents speaks volumes for how valid his comments were, taken in the context of his own local area.
To cut a long story short, Nigel hasn’t done anything wrong and Iain defending him is absolutely fine.

Poor Iain Dale knows he will never ever fill the shoes of Anne Widdecombe and sadly resorts to swearing at critics. I think the country deserves an apology from Dave Shameron for his dithering over Nigel Hastilow. Inept and incompetent Dave who twists and turns to keep his right wingers on board.
“The fact that his own constituency chairwoman said he was just representing the views of his local constituents speaks volumes for how valid his comments were”
No, it speaks volumes about the views of Conservative Party officers…
