Political outrage template article

A [supporter/member/if you're lucky MP or Peer] of [political party you don't like] has made a [comment/speech/if you're lucky bad taste joke] that has offended a number of people.

Calls have been made for the [supporter/member/if you're lucky MP or Peer] to apologise for the [comment/speech/if you're lucky bad taste joke] that was made on [Tuesday/Question Time/if you're lucky Twitter].

The gaffe comes just [months/weeks/if you're lucky days] after [supporter/member/if you're doubly lucky MP or Peer] of [political party you don't like] also caused controversy with a [comment/speech/if you're on a real outrage winning streak bad taste joke] that also offended lots of people. [supporter/member/if you're doubly lucky MP or Peer] apologised for this at the time but these latest scandalous remarks show that they simply have not learned their lesson.

"They just don't get it" said a spokesperson for [pressure group/political party you do like/political party you dislike less than the political party you don't like]. "It's absolutely typical of people associated with that party and demonstrates why you should never vote for them."

Last Paragraph should have had something to the effect of "Given his/her history in this connection, would you not think s/he would have given more thought to his/her remarks?"

BBC also has a template attachment to the reporting of faux outrage. Especially if its labour upset.

"A spokesperson/MP/ charity worker/ HardWorkingFamily member said "it shows just how out of touch they are."

Ed Miliband used prime ministers questions to call on the****** to Resign!"..saying...they just don't get it/we should be a one nation Britain/ cost of living crisis/some Bolloxs with word SOCIETY in it...etc.

Mark Thompson of the Liberal Democrats has made a blog that has offended a number of people.

Calls have been made for the blogger to apologise for the blog that was made on 22 December.

The gaffe comes just days after another Liberal Democrat also caused controversy with a blog that also offended lots of people. The Liberal Democrats apologised for this at the time but these latest scandalous remarks show that they simply have not learned their lesson.

"They just don't get it" said a spokesperson for Labour. "It's absolutely typical of people associated with that party and demonstrates why you should never vote for them."
