Campaigners claim John Reid is “not fit for porpoise”

Calls for John Reid to resign following latest Home Office blunder

Dressed as fish and dolphins, a group of campaigners will today gather outside the London Aquarium to demand John Reid’s resignation claiming that he is “not fit for porpoise”.

The stunt, organised by the No Confidence Campaign – the group that attempted to get George Bush sectioned under the Mental Health Act during his 2004 visit to London - follows revelations that criminals convicted of offences abroad have been allowed to return to Britain unchecked.

Simon Stefanowitz, NCC spokesman, said today;

“The fact that 25 rapists, 29 paedophiles and five murderers are among thousands of convicts left off the police computer and sex offender register shows that John Reid is failing to adequately protect the British public. It is likely that he will attempt to pass the buck to others in the Home Office, but we feel that responsibility must lie with him. It shows a level of incompetence and ineptitude that should immediately disqualify him for any position of responsibility in Cabinet and should ensure that his unseemly ambitions to become leader of the Labour Party and Prime Minister of the country are consigned to the dustbin of history. We cannot allow convicted criminals to get jobs dealing with vulnerable people nor can we allow a man with such flawed judgement anywhere near the reigns of power. The whole matter is very fishy and John Reid is no longer fit for porpoise.”

Demo – 2pm, London Aquarium, South Bank, London.
