Reform UK Makerfield candidate Robert Kenyon accused of abusive online comments

Mr Shoggoth38

“Save Ar Wimun!” He’s the perfect Reform candidate.

Vile POS. Danny Kruger says we should give him the benefit of the doubt but come on, you dont hate women by mistake.

slappingkarma.bsky.social34

If I attended a job interview and was asked how I would treat my female colleagues. If I answered like Mr Kenyon. I would obviously not get the job. However it seems okay if you are going for an MP. Surely now we need to drag the MPs code of conduct into the entry process so we stamp this out!

grahamxroy.bsky.social29

Do you think he has the intelligence to work out that 51% of the voters in Makerfield are women. Probably does, but he will claim they will just vote how their masters and betters tell them to.

Susan Taylor #IStandWithUkraine #RejoinEU #FBPE20

I hope the women in Makerfield don’t even think about voting for this misogynistic clown.

It’s a complete mystery why 16 year old girls are pregnant. How did that happen I wonder. Immaculate conception? 🤨

John Deans17

Farage seems to have been under the impression that on this choice of candidate rest his own ambitions for Number 10... just staggering.

Clare M16

Well he sounds absolutely charming.

Gavalaaaa!15

Imagine being married to this macho prick. The absolute lack of dignity and self-worth his wife must have. And he thinks he would make a good MP. Am waiting for the stories to come out where he also proves to be a really shitty cowboy plumber.

Peyton Farquhar15

Once again, I'm struck by the similarities between the kind of "man" who is attracted to this confected wave of reactionary politics, around the globe, and the type that Olivier Roy found joining Islamist groups in France.

Friskiedgrrl 🏳️‍🌈 💙🍁 🌊🇨🇦 🇺🇦9

Do the Reform flunkies hang around national front groups to scoop up their next candidates?

Brizo75 🇵🇸 🇺🇸 🇬🇧9

It will make no difference...women voted in their millions for Trump...the same will happen here, the people attracted to Reform love this stuff because its the type of shit they say all the time, they hate the people of this country and idolise a version of England that never existed...its MEGA

Gerri McGerriface9

I’m sure I could manage to give him some directions. 😬

sara-gaia.bsky.social8

I hope this hurts his business. I wouldn’t want him in my house.

Sam8

The fascist Right (reform, restore, resuscitate etc) are so incoherent and hateful. I thought they wanted women to have children?

It's A Scam7

What would the ruling class do without the bully arsehole section of the working class?

odinoneye65.bsky.social7

I’m pretty sure my wife could give him some **very** clear directions.

Lecrimper7

As my wife would say “what a catch”

Helen Brooks7

Quite apart from all the other terrible things here, 16 year old girls are not women and the fact that he thinks they are tells you everything

Lynn Bird7

You can't become a Reform candidate unless you hold abhorrent views about women, religion and ethnicity. They are not normal or representative of Britain. They are minted moaners whose only play is unhinged grievance.

Jonathon6

“Repressing women is never an accident or a blip”. (Zoe Williams, Guardian)

Catherine6

Struggling to understand how a man with such awful views managed to find a wife. Heaven help that poor woman.

banma569.bsky.social6

Sure lots of women would like to give him directions and tell him exactly where he can go!

Honest Dave5

Everything I read about him illustrates that he should be nowhere near any public office.

LondonDiscuss5

Gosh. I imagine he's single then..

big-cat-diesel.bsky.social4

Definite slappy-slappy-punchy-punchy-the-girls vines going on here.

Irritated Llama4

Why do they all hate women so much?

Elaine4

He’s a misogynistic twat. He has no business being anywhere near politics. He’s the worst of the worst. 🤬🤬

seizethedaytrip.bsky.social4

So if he wants all the non-English women deported and he can’t stand English women, where does that leave us I wonder 🤔

caughtinthespin.bsky.social3

And he is probably one of those men that likes to get 16 year old pregnant

A complete ignorant nasty individual - no wonder Reform selected him.

Anianegwr3

His Mam must be so proud

John Henderson3

Beginning to wonder if Reform chose him because they think leadership challenge in-fighting would do more damage to Labour than having another dickhead Reform MP.

Deirdre Barlow3

Loads of women will still vote for him though - the hatred of foreigners runs deep

Amelia Clark - Lover of Flagons3

You spelled “colossal misogynist wanker” wrong…

Given the rate of teenage pregnancy has almost halved in England since 1998, he's also describing a tiny niche of the country Maybe he just needs to get out more.

nigelburns.bsky.social3

This is a piece of performance art; isn’t it? It has to be. Something so cliched can’t be serious. OMG!!!!

Thomas Myerscough3

Can he be castrated - just as a social experiment.

Hannah Mayhem2

Middle aged man takes too much interest in teenage girls bodies.

timbothewiz.bsky.social2

If women can’t drive how come they have fewer and less serious accidents per mile than men? He probably thinks of himself as an alpha male. My description wouldn’t be alpha, but it would start with the same letter. Has he ever seen Andy D’Urso or Rob Styles ref?

Phillip Rees2

The color of the van is no coincidence.

Starlit_Stella2

Not the British Women i came in contact with. And it was alot. Seems to me that Robert is the one who has a problem. With himself. And his inner view.

Spancialosaphus Lacrimosae2

Isn’t he a Spurs supporter?

Honest Dave12

The real Robert Kenyon has stood up. How many people will do the right thing and not vote for him as a result though?

Rachel Jones11

Kenyon is a vile, misogynistic creep Reform will still stand by him Thank you Carol Vorderman for putting it so articulately

bella34.bsky.social10

Is he the one that also said women can’t drive or give directions? Nasty little man. Carol Vorderman could swat him away like an insignificant little fly.

wokeyvegan.bsky.social9

This type of bloke used to be left to fester in the corner of the bar. Brexit and Musk’s shithole social media opened the doors for these comical little weirdos to have a platform. Why? To distract the public from the current neoliberal death cult and keep wealth wealthy. Where’s Labours response?

Elly Davis4

He's awful but it's the people proudly standing behind him that shock me. There are even women in that lot.

sapiens365.bsky.social4

Kenyon is a case on point. Why would you vote for somebody with character & principles infinitely worse than anyone in Labour b/c you want Labour out? Something about nose-biting & faces.....

Sally Luxmoore3

One by-election does not remove a government. That's misleading or even fraudulent advertising.

Dave3

So just another far right gobshite.

Pedropiepsy2

Shame Voders has to do Labours job for them. Where are the attack adds?

Stephen McBarron2

It’s only a fortnight ago they were saying Vote Reform to Get Starmer Out - surest way to get Starmer Out is to vote Labour in Makerfield so Andy Burnham can mount a Leadership Challenge! Doubt Farage will be telling the voters that though

Chris Smith11

Why can't a fascist party have a racist misogynist candidate? This is political correctness gone mad.

The Lady Lucy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🇬🇱🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🐾🐕5

Except for women, its not at all funny for women.

Keith Fagandini5

Sadly the Express will just ignore this and double down on the anti-Burnham stuff. They are not in the business of reporting news, just pumping out right wing propaganda. Curiously the rag is owned by Retch plc, who also publish the left-wing Daily Mirror - no actual beliefs here, just a product.

Jane3

Wanting to ban abortion is fine, but being pro trans is anti women according to the Express

🏳️‍⚧️Contested Issue🏳️‍⚧️2

"Backing woman" in the UK is now code for "is transphobic" Nobody is interested in actual women's rights any more. At least not in the media.

BrianinFrance12

It's what his gullible racist supporters thrive on.

Donna6

Fuckin diabolical to know that millions of our fellow citizens are absolutely fine with this.

duckduckdo.bsky.social5

The days when I believed farage would be embarrassed by his fawning love of tRump, are long gone. The hate and “norm” busting (otherwise known as lawbreaking) is the point. It’s their thing. It’s all they have.

bjbrightwell.bsky.social3

Danny Kruger, on today, yesterday, tried to explain it away as a ‘ private’ comment while acknowledging it was made on a public platform. ‘ people use social media las if it were private’ . Kruger seems to think it’s okay to be gross in ‘private. In the same slot he said we need better politicians

Poppy’s Dad! 🐾3

There are still many more decent people in this country who are against vile sht that Faridge and his racist goons spout. For the love of God and all that is holy, let’s hope the good people of Makerfield get out and vote for Burnham (regardless of why!).

Paul Higgins3

It's amazing though that some Reform voters are horrified by what they see in America but somehow they believe that Farage will be completely different.

Danny Fearns3

If Farage comes out of hiding, it will be interesting to see him trying to reconcile Reform's obsession with 'protecting are women' with Kenyon's extreme misogyny.

💚2

I Googled "what stopped Mosely's popularity' and was shocked at the comparisons between then, and now. People don't change, we are a country of kind, and caring people and we will stop the Reformers, just as our relatives stopped Mosely. The minority hate groups won't win.

victoria1921.bsky.social2

Unimaginable for most decent, *ordinary* people to accept that so called "freedom of speech" has actually allowed the richest bigots, misogynists and racists to drag the western world back into the Dark Ages en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Ag...

Adrian Owlett #FBPE #RejoinEU🇪🇺🇨🇵🇬🇧🇪🇺📎📎2

The disgrace is indeed the fact that he has promoted his own obnoxious views which so many of our countrymen find acceptable.

Farage should be made to stand down. We need to shout this louder. He's not fit to be an MP.

MayaScientist21

And for the thousandth example, we see that the gender crits will never be satisfied. Burnham backslid from his previous (at least stated) trans support but that's not good enough for them. It never is. If you're gonna be attacked anyways, might as well just actually support trans people.

Helen20

Also lol at the idea that the Daily Express cares about women's rights

Ch6Red13

It’s always been about sexism and anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry

Jason Scott-Warren10

clean up our corrupt media: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/76...

Catherine8

It’s never about the safety of women & girls. The worst of humanity never see it from the point of view of women & girls.

chrissiestanley.bsky.social8

Its a tool of the patriarchy, by saying because trans women are assigned male at birth they are inherently a risk, they are saying its nature. When we know it society structure that allows this, its a tool to keep saying boys will boys and men and boys can continue to get away with abusing women.

Kirsty McTear 🏳️‍⚧️7

To these monsters, trans-women are sex traitors.

Sara Hummingbird7

Burnham another Labour polician who cares little about progressive values. It's past the time that cis men keep shouting about protecting women & girls whilst removing autonomy. It's about control. The guardian actually wrote a good piece on the linking of patriarchy & removal of autonomy.

Erin5

This will always be a problem for Burnham and Labour until they realize they must confront it head on.

Hogey3

I suspect this has nothing to do with women, women’s rights or the trans debate. This is an op-ed rooted in getting reform into power by smearing their opposition across all angles, regardless of truth or nuance. Classic flood the zone and something will stick

Julie 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏴‍☠️ 🏳️‍🌈 Montoya2

Kenyon needs to be in prison for hate crimes.

Does it come with a GoPro camera on a magic arm attached to the passenger door as standard? What’s that for then ?

Kirstie Best7

I tightened the pipework joint thingies under my kitchen sink. I am a plumber.

Ian Shaw4

I bet he doesn’t know his Plumbers Mait from his Boss White.

Jan Chamier4

Not sham at all then. Nor is his currently ‘regretting’ the misogynistic and horrible comments he put on X not very long ago.

SwelterTheChef4

Saw how a plumber won for the Greens, think they can do the same by posing as a heating engineer.

Andy Flan3

Such a bunch of complete dangers and con merchants.

cdog62.bsky.social3

Give me one reason why you would trust him...

Polly Curley4

To be clear. Wanting to "lick @carolvorders.bsky.social's waste disposal unit" doesn't make you a racist misogynist. Voting Reform UK Ltd does.

Reform revealing themselves as Team Arsehole is not really much of a surprise.

I love how these two really, really hate each other. So much fun to watch.

This guy sounds like the UK's version of Markwayne Mullin from the US. 🤮

mollycad.bsky.social5

He sounds quite bitter, presumably the “anyone they want” didn’t include him.

Nigeishere3

Should be in the Taliban not UK politics

kaybell27.bsky.social2

And women with no self respect still vote for misogynist Reform.

Purple Tea2

Every day another nugget of hateful nonsense from this idiot. After he loses the count we won’t have to mention him ever again.

Andy2

As Brian Clough once famously said “On paper, we were the better team. Unfortunately we were playing on grass”. The same seems to be true in politics! 😐

Kirstie Best2

So he's surely failed the Reform 'vetting' process?
