Jaye Robinson: the mayor is a pussy
Posted on
June 11th, 2013by Patrick – 2 great comments. Room for one more!
The title of this post takes some liberties with Councillor Jaye Robinson’s comments on being fired from Rob Ford’s Executive Committee, but it’s not far off the mark:
“…it’s unfortunate that the mayor didn’t have the fortitude to tell me to my face that I’ve been removed from executive. I’ve been given no reasons. This is not a mid-term shuffle, this is not a normal time to shift and make adjustments to your cabinet.”
Convicted criminal and known public liar Ford responded with his typical “everything’s fine!”-style comment while taking the opportunity to imply that Robinson is the one lying, this despite the fact that this is the 19th person to abandon Ford Nation. That is, if you don’t include the now-demoted Paul Ainslie, the vitriol the Fords hurl at Karen Stintz, or the ignominiously fired Gary Webster.
Ford’s Club for Sycophants, now that Robinson is gone, is now a proper old boys’ club:
... with pictures
... with sounds
... with videos
... with opinions
... that's shorter
... that's longer

The Low Water Mark in this whole deal was achieved by Denzil Minan Wong when he remarked that Jaye Robinson might have had self serving political motives in urging Ford to seek treatment. Does everybody have to descend to the level of Doug Ford in tossing out unfounded slurs and speculative character accusations? It just gets sicker every day, doesn’t it?

You’re right, Daniel. And if the situations were reversed…
