Campaigner for battered women abuses partner

Quote :

A Liberal Democrat councillor who campaigns for battered women beat up her Conservative husband when their own coalition turned sour, a court heard.

Christine James, 51, suspected husband Ian was having an affair with former mayoress Alison Cocks.

Awkward irony.

Quote :

'He went to another address where he stayed with a friend. Later, he was in the kitchen having a conversation with this person when all of a sudden the front door opened and Mrs James came into the house.

'She came bursting through the kitchen door and he said "she ran straight towards me screaming like a banshee, saying you are a b*****d, what are you doing here?"

'He then said that she stood in front of him and "was swinging punches at me while I tried to stop her with my outreached arm."

'He said she connected blows to his chin, chest and arms on several occasions. He tried to hold her off and call the police on his mobile with the other hand.

'He said when she saw that she turned around and stormed out of the house shouting more abuse.'

Miss Cocks, 48, described James as being in a 'blind rage' at the time.

On a suspicion, without finding out the truth, an action was performed that would still be unjustified.

Quote :

'She is very sorry for the incident. She accepts she was upset and angry. She knows full well that perhaps there was another way she could have dealt with this.'

Claiming to have full knowledge of an alternative way just makes the actions all the more damning.

Shitstorm approaching!!

What, nobody's pointed out that this is the Daily Mail yet?

This is the perfect storm for a Mail article. Naughty lady, and she's a Lib Dem too. If she were brown, it'd be front page news.

Hahaha, the fucking comments section.

THIS TOTALLY PROVES WOMEN ARE CUNTS RIGHT GUYS?

Usually, I avoid comments on Mail articles like the plague.

Rightly so. The second top rated commenter can't even spell Britain.

You had to go to the Daily Mail to find something to bait Cyberwulf?

Hey, it's a Lib Dem woman beating up a Conservative man. I fully support and endorse her actions, and encourage all women everywhere to do it now.

Am I really the only one that read Harley's post as being sarcastic?
