Lee Anderson hoax 07:52 - Dec 18 with 2401 views | NeedhamChris | Regardless of political views, this is beyond the pale isn't it?
Politics of all side (including Lee a lot of the time) needs to get out of the gutter but this isn't acceptable. | |

Agreed. This sort of thing is awful, but when we have a precedent of politicians getting people to pretend they are someone they aren't to attempt to score political points then what kind of example does that set to Joe Public? | |

Lee Anderson hoax on 08:54 - Dec 18 with 2149 views | factual_blue | Lee Anderthal Although whoever has done this isn't big and isn't clever. I would imagine it's some edgy youtuber 'comedian', rather than somebody actually involved in politics on a day to day basis. [Post edited 18 Dec 2023 8:58]

Lee Anderson hoax on 08:58 - Dec 18 with 2124 views | ArnoldMoorhen | Working on the reasonable assumption that Anderson is telling the truth here: He has done the right thing if he has reported it to the Police. It will be interesting to see whether a crime has been committed, but the Police will be able to find out who the caller is. Then Anderson should sue them for everything they have got, because this would be one of the most open and shut cases of defamation in UK legal history. | | | |

When the tories uses a shot of a BBC newsreader for an attack ad on Labour, they shouldn't be surprised at this sort of thing. I suspect it all stems from bringing gung-ho Aussie political 'consultants' into things. | |

Lee Anderson hoax on 09:29 - Dec 18 with 1952 views | J2BLUE | This is disgusting. It's only going to get worse in the future as well as AI develops. We need AI legislation now. It's going to cause massive problems for us if anything goes. Faked photos and videos can be weaponised and cause all sorts of issues for society. | |

Yeah - warrants a whole discussion (or ten!) on it's own. I use ChatGPT a little bit but not really too proficient with it - but the size and scale of it's development is nothing short of seismic. | |

To be fair, how do we know you're not AI? Obviously some 'sandpit' experimental test account, rather than anything ready for release, but it's possible. | | | |

Well, isn't that a turn up for the books? Doesn't excuse the bellend on the radio by any stretch but it's hard to feel very much sympathy for someone who has done so much to drag this country and its politics into the gutter. | |

The most shocking thing about that is the fact The Daily Mail let it see the light of day! | | | |

This bloke is an absolute “C U next Tuesday” of the highest order but even I can see there’s a difference between this kind of buffoonery and someone impersonating his son on national media and telling the nation he’s a drunk and that he knocks him about. | | | |

Well, effectively both involved impersonating someone else for political reasons. What happened to Lee Anderson was more nasty and personal for sure, but the difference is the severity rather than type of the deed. [Post edited 18 Dec 2023 15:10]

One being more nasty and personal for one family, as compared to the other making that family benefit financially through misleading the public. Or it's a tory false flag dead cat attack. | | | |
Lee Anderson hoax on 15:56 - Dec 18 with 957 views | tcblue | What's making me feel really uneasy and more than a little guilty is - partly due to the clip above showing 30p Lee manipulating - is a voice questioning if this was a false flag type of operation. I guess my horrifying inset cynicism might be a product of what British politics has turned into 😞 | | | |
