We are quite amazed to be writing this if we’re honest. Sarah Daniels did not in any way seem the type to stoop so low. After we got a curious Mailbag contrition from a regular, we got curious and wondered what on earth they could be referring to.
Wow imagine a family member dying and you making a political statement about! Low.
When we went to take a look, we initially could not believe what we were seeing. Had Councillor Daniels used the sad and evidently untimely death of her cousin (for which we give our genuine condolences) to push a political agenda, then we read it again and agreed, yes she had. Were we quite disgusted by this? Yes we were. It seems Daniels is not infallible to the bizzarely ill advised Facebook posts her colleagues have recently made. Even we questioned whether we should post this article, but seeing as that horse had already bolted, we thought it was worth comment.
Similar to how people on TikTok film themselves crying over apparently traumatic events, that most normal people wouldn’t have the inclination or energy or decency to do, we find Daniels post in rather poor taste. The NHS should indeed be praised, despite it’s very obvious faults that make it a rather unwieldy beast and a money pit. Criticism of it is generally met with abuse from the left, as if you were advocating murdering a puppy. There is a constant push by Labour to insinuate that the Tories would have the NHS abolished, despite their many opportunities to do so over the decades having not manifested that particular lie. Nobody wants rid of the NHS, no-one denies the amazing work they do. Are people too scared to speak up about the horrific waste, mismanagement and bureaucracy that exists within the behemoth that is the NHS? Absolutely yes. Because those left leaning advocates will bully you into believing you’re a bad person for even thinking it, like they do about many other things people are now worried to speak up about.
Daniels is a Councillor that we have heard praise for, and she certainly appears to not be quite as bad as her colleagues on many levels. To use the passing of your relative to make an unnecessary public statement, is however something we cannot reconcile with her golden public image. Are we alone in thinking this?
