Incredible how useless our police and councils are that he had too suffer this abuse for nearly two years. Hope they lose everything they have, more Dover scum removed from our streets, hooray!

The judge made reference to social media playing a big part in blowing the issue up which is true as I have been following it for some time. Trolls decided to back the gruesome twosome and the victim was cast as a sexual pervert. Thankfully wiser heads prevailed and it soon became clear who was the guilty party. Hopefully the victim will get over losing a year or more of his life though he will never why he was selected for such treatment.

I had heard about it last year from friends who live on Badger rise but had no idea how bad it was, they kept away from it and aren't on social media so thought it was just a nasty neighbour spat.
Online bullying seems to be quite the norm these days with people not even realising that they are partaking, down to a lack of education for one.

Reading some comments on various sites on the internet makes me worry about the mentality of the writers, some comments are not those of a totally sane person.

I think Reg is partially right with stupidity playing a large part, Jan is 100% right especially on some of the Dover pages, Tourettes Syndrome is prevalent. The third way is when someone supposedly responsible and respected decides to put a stain on someone's character. A candidate who stood for Parliament last May in East Kent has been spreading rubbish about me, I can't give any more details as I am in the process of digging back and compiling evidence and without an unreserved apology legal action will be taken.

Sorry Peter I can't say anything just in case the individual gets wind and starts deleting statements.

Some small minded people really get upset when it's pointed out that they are talking b****x, and instead of learning from it, they try to retaliate, children are the same, if you confront one over something its not "I'm sorry" its always "who told you" some people never grow out of it.
Thank goodness they never gained enough significant support, we have enough idiots in government.

Seems like my reputation has been cleared and will provide full evidence later, still spitting feathers though.

A full retraction and apologies for accusations has now been made so I will not give a name.
However it started with this photo on a website and I gave the view that parents should not use their children in this way, I didn't know but it was put out that I was attacking the children.
The other accusation was that I had made an anti semitic comment about the candidate. Firstly I was not aware the candidate was Jewish, secondly I could hardly be described as anti semitic after living for 14 years in a London borough with the highest concentration of Jewish people in Europe except for a Moscow suburb.
