George Rolph: New Information, Decide For Yourselves

From Welfare News Service on Facebook:

George Rolph, Hunger Striker: Sexist, Homophobic and Hate Speech Supporter?

In a previous update we reported that we have been handed information about George Rolph which MAY show the man in a different light to what many may expect.

Mr Rolph went on hunger strike after having his benefits stopped and despite later having his benefits reinstated he continued to hunger strike in defence of others who have lost benefits as a result or government reforms, he claims.

It is difficult to ascertain the full motives behind his hunger strike and it is not our intention to discredit Mr Rolph. However, we also have an obligation to inform our readers and supporters about the man behind the hunger strike, and any issues which could have a bearing on his actions; so that they themselves can form their own opinions and conclusions.

A few people have accused Mr Rolph of a political stunt due to his alleged connections with the campaign group Fathers For Justice. However he continues to claim that his hunger strike is in defence of those hit by welfare reforms. There is currently no solid evidence to believe otherwise.

The links below allegedly lead to blogs and comments written by George over the period of a number of years. Content in those blogs potentially expose George as a man that some would find difficulty in supporting. Whilst we fully accept that is is possible for everyone to change their views over a period of time it is also just as possible that he has not.

Lack of definitive proof prevent us from categorically stating that the author of these blogs and comments is indeed Mr George Rolph, hunger striker. For this reason I urge you to approach them with extreme caution. It may also be possible that you could broadly agree with the views expressed in these blogs but for some it is highly likely that they could paint Mr Rolph in a different light – particularly for women readers.

Some of the opinions expressed in these blogs could be upsetting and cause anger among some people – follow at your own risk.
