Labour candidate attacks the Queen on Facebook
Labour candidate Peter White may have jeopardised his political career with a surprising outburst launched on Facebook in which he likened the Queen to a “parasite” and “vermin”.
Mr White is seeking election to Havering Borough Council in 2010, but has been summoned to meet with Labour party officials after comparing a public holiday to mark Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond Jubilee with “celebrating vermin” in remarks posted on Conservative MP Andrew Rosindell’s Facebook page. Mr Rosindell is campaigning for a high profile celebration of the Diamond Jubilee, due to occur in 2012.
Mr White argued: “What is the point of celebrating the Diamond Jubilee of someone who is born into a position of privilege, she is a parasite and milks this country for everything she can.
"She has more front than Margate asking for extra money from the civil list. Maybe she should sell a couple of her properties.
"Maybe if she wants Buckingham Palace to be maintained from public funds she should open it to the public.
"Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with a public holiday but lets (sic) have one that means something, rather than celebrating vermin."
A spokesman for the London Labour Party said: "Peter White has been summoned to a meeting with key members of the local party and officers from the London Regional Labour Party.
"He will be required to explain his comments and they will consider his future."

He's 100% right. The queen has done nothing to earn anything she has, and has done nothing to deserve a celebration. She is truly a worthless parasite, like any "high-born" person who thinks they are entitled to something by birthright.
LOL< Facebook slap da Queen! I love it.

If he was my MP, I would vote for him.
He is the only one brave enough to say that the Emperor (monarchy) has no clothes.
Lizzy is the worst parasite. The longest sitting monarch in English history (possibly world history) she can't relinquish her position of power. Maybe she is scared of her son getting the position and would rather out live him as to deny him the vermin throne?
I totally agree with him 100% he'd definitely get my vote.
The entire royal family have not been elected to be in their positions of power and great wealth they have been born into it.
That in itself is totally undemocratic and the fact that they syphon vital public money to fund their lavish lifestyle show that nothing has changed at all since the days when they used to have near dictatorial power over the peasants.
The royal family are not royal they are a family of gangsters and im glad that someone's finally had the guts to admit it
a member of parliament calling the queen a parasite?
lol takes one to know one
