Bromley Council: Shaun Slator's rape comment sparks investigation
A councillor Who Said on Twitter that it was " more likely" a Rape Victim was a prostitute whose " punter. . didn't pay" is under investigation.
Shaun Slator's remark was made under a post about a news report on a rape inquiry in Plumstead in the south-east London borough of Greenwich.
Mr Slator is a Conservative councillor in neighbouring Bromley.
Bromley's Labour Group Leader Simon Jeal described Mr Slator's remark as " revolting".
A Bromley Council spokesperson said: " We have received complaints relating to this matter which The Council will now investigate. "
The Met Police confirmed in a statement: " At 03:59GMT on 30 December a female attended a Police Station to report that she had been raped in the vicinity of Villas Road.
" There have been no arrests and inquiries are ongoing. "
, which has since been deleted, shows his account responding to a news report about The Incident , saying: " More likely that it's a punter that didn't pay. "
Mr Slator, St Mary Cray ward, told The Bbc : " I have no interest in being in another out-of-context political hit piece.
" I put a lot of time and energy into lobbying The Local police and council for more resources to tackle The Armed gangs which control the drugs and pimping in Plumstead.
" Local Labour councillors, the Labour MP and mayor of London all ignored my warnings. "
The Bbc is not responsible for the content of external sites.Mr Jeal said the Labour group was " disgusted" by the tweet, adding: " We call on Bromley Council Conservative group and Gareth Bacon MP to publicly and unequivocally condemn his comments and refer The Matter to Bromley Council's standards committee for independent investigation. "
'Shocking'Mr Bacon, Conservative MP for Orpington, said: " The Party takes these matters seriously and I believe an investigation will be undertaken. It would therefore be inappropriate for me to comment further at this stage. "
Sarah Olney , the Liberal Democrat MP for Richmond Park in south-west London, said: " I expect the Conservative Party to suspend him without delay.
" These attitudes towards rape should not be tolerated anywhere in This Country , and especially in our politics.
" For elected representatives to spout such offensive remarks on this crime really is shocking. "
