A TORY General Election candidate has withdrawn from standing following the discovery of “wholly inappropriate” comments on a fitness website.
The Tory candidate said he measured bra sizes by “hand sizing them by feel”, adding: “Maybe have to make a more detailed inspection with my lips and tongue... for accuracy, of course.” In a statement to the newspaper, Trask described the remarks as “wholly inappropriate” and said he had decided to withdraw as a candidate.in 2019, when Jamie Wallis – who previously said he would not stand in the constituency at this election – secured a majority of 1157.: “These comments were made a number of years ago, and I recognise they are wholly inappropriate. For that I apologise and have decided to withdraw as a candidate.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
