I wonder how many of those who championed John Prescott when he lashed out at the moron who threw an egg over him, are now prepared to champion BNP parliamentary candidate Bob Bailey, after he was spat on?

[ummmm]

Spitting is a nasty habit.

[sandyRoe]

Just goes to show that being a thug isn't predicated by the colour of your skin.

I don't recall that Prescott then kicked the man when he was down? That used to be thought of as unBritish behaviour.

The parliamentary candidate, who was in Barking, east London, then aimed several kicks at the boy as he lay in road before he and his entourage became embroiled in an all-out brawl.

That happened in the next road to my Mum & Dad.

[Sqad]

I am.....good on the BNP candidate, I would have done the same.

[ummmm]

If someone spat in my face I'd hit them....and then give them a few more slaps so they learn their lesson.

[DEN53]

It sounds like the BNP bloke is saying to the Asian boys 'which one of you is robbers'

[ummmm]

It also looks like it wasn't filmed from the beginning.

[chris1970]

Good on him i would have done exactly the same regardless of colour or creed , no doubt he will be in trouble for it though and spitting is actual assault in the eyes of the law

[ummmm]

Of course it's assault. There is nothing more insulting.

[jno]

of course, just because you're assaulted it doesn't mean you have to assault back; and some might think that knocking a man down then kicking him on the ground is a slight overreaction to being spat at. Hardly self-defence, is it?

[chris1970]

probably hit back as he wouldnt be so low as to spit in someones face it is the lowest of the low and they deserved all they got !!!!!!

[Bobbisox]

ummm doesn't need trained in CB, we are all terrified of her...lol
so I guess the answer is NO...Newsie?

[ummmm]

Lol Jatte...I've always been aggressive. Except for when people cry...then I calm down.

No, not exactly self defence but defending ones pride.

[Bobbisox]

no yer not...ummm
yer a big softy who defends har family to the death
well done !

[ummmm]

Yeah....and if someone spat at them I'd hit them a slap...lol

[ummmm]

Or I'd phone my cousin and get him to do it....

[Seadragon]

I agree Jno to rain blows on something who spat is out of proportion. The BNP candidate should leave it to the law as common assault. One can't see his reactions as self-defence, why would anyone vote for this party if such violence is their response?

[chris1970]

I take it you didnt vote labour after john prescott little incident a few years back then seadragon?
