Following his election, he petitioned Middlesbrough Mayor Andy Preston to trial gender-neutral toilets at Middlesbrough Council.
The 30-year-old, who has resigned from the Conservative party but remains a councillor, denies what he called the “spurious allegations”.
Mr Smith, who was elected in May, is due to appear at Teesside Magistrates’ Court on 7 August.
In a statement, Mr Smith said he was resigning from the Tory party and Middlesbrough Council Conservative Group “with immediate effect”, the Local Democracy Reporting Service said.
Last month he apologised for comments he made to the Middlesbrough FC fan page Fly Me To The Moon in which he referred to people on benefits as “rotten pond life families that should be sterilised and washed”.
Here is my problem with naming the accused in such emotionally charged matters as “child sexual abuse”: What if (Heaven forbid!) the man is actually innocent? His life and career will already been ruined beyond repair by his summary conviction in “The Court of Public Opinion”. His sad fate was sealed the second his name was published as having just been charged with the offence. There is damn good reason why the names of the alleged victims in all such cases are not made public. Why the fuck are people accused with such heinous crimes (and who could be innocent!) not accorded the same courtesy!?
Imagine my shock, lol.
No surprise here. Just another commie pedo. They are everywhere. In politics, entertainment and govt. So sick. 🙁
The turd will likely offer the piece of shit a job in the Canadian school system.
No doubt. We had that pedo writing up the Provincial Liberal sex ed program and he ended up in jail. 🙁
