Tory In ‘Fake News’ Ruse After Calling For Anti-Social Council Tenants To Be Housed In Tents

He is caught in the act on the video for Mail+ saying: “Make out you know who I am, that you know I’m a candidate but not a friend, alright?

“I’m out in the staff car park, have a quick look.

“Alright me duck I’ll see you in a minute.”

Earlier in the campaign, the candidate for marginal had revealed his “personal” plan to for anti-social council tenants.

“Let’s have ’em in a tent in the middle of a field, six o’clock every morning, let’s have ’em up, let’s have ’em in the fields, picking potatoes or any current seasonal vegetables, back in the tent, cold shower, lights out six o’clock, the same again the next day.

“That would be my solution.”

When Crick came to Ashfield, a Tory target held by Labour since 1979, Anderson refused to answer questions about his plan, replying simply “no comment”.

A local woman then by chance turned up to upbraid Anderson for “whipping up intolerance”.

But the candidate then activated his cunning plan, taking Crick out on the doorstep in an apparent attempt to show his tents idea was moderate compared to what voters actually wanted.

Steve the “voter” then opens the door, saying he would back the Tories.
