That looks like a fake and libellous tweet PS intended to unfairly malign Paul Nuttall. Please provide evidence that it is genuine. Meantime it has been hidden.

This is the genuine Paul Nuttall twitter feed https://twitter.com/paulnuttallukip



Update 11.23pm: this discussion has been split out as it is in no way relevant to the original thread. It relates to a picture purporting to have been an offensive tweet by Paul Nuttall. If it's a fake it would be gross libel, if it's true it will get unhidden. Without serious evidence it is real I ain't taking the chance while an election featuring Nuttall is in progress

Look at the national newspapers tomorrow and it has also just been shown on Sky news as part of the Press Preview.

Yes it was, I was watching it. (It is half an hour not 8 minutes.)

Yes and some of us are capable of using the fast forward on their remote. The picture features twice as the raw picture and NOT including the alleged tweet text.

I have checked both his twitter account and the #StokeCentral hashtag feed and it does not feature. So until I see some evidence of substance that he made that statement it stays hidden

And this well off topic discussion is getting split out

:rubchin: You posted a link that says "But it seems Mr Nuttall was not amused, and apparently tweeted"

which is very much half hearted. No mainstream site is carrying it not even Guido and no one has retweeted it which is the usual outing for misguided tweets.
