BIGOT: Les Twentyman triggers race war in western suburbs
Property millionaire Les Twentyman, an angry white man who lives in luxurious circumstances in a million-dollar townhouse in the Edgewater estate in Maribyrnong near marina and patisserie, has told a local newspaper that ALP branches in the area are populated by “people from a non-English speaking background” who he says are intimidated into joining the party.
His paternalistic, patronising and racist attacks on non-Anglo communities have not gone over well in the western suburbs.
“According to Les you have to be white and Anglo-Saxon to join a political party of your own free will. This is just racism and we’re sick of it.”
“Many of the people he insults and demeans as ‘non-English speaking’ are people with higher education and a passionate interest in their community. We note that Twentyman while pretending to be a social worker and teacher has not ever had qualifications in either area. He’s a fraud, a patronising, racialist, pompous old goat. Hopefully that’s colourful enough for you,” one angry western suburbs activist emailed VEXNEWS this afternoon disgusted at the Lard Lord Liposuctioned Les Twentyman’s latest disgusting display.
Twentyman who recently had a stomach-stapling operation that cost tens of thousands of dollars has used his column in the Leader Newspapers to make the stinging attack on people he privately and disparagingly describes as “ethnics.”
Leader Newspapers are understood to be reviewing whether they can continue with Twentyman’s column – even if it is paid advertising space from a used car salesman – if it is going to be dominated by promoting his shonky political career.
In other developments, authorities have received complaints about the operation of Twentyman’s 20th Man Fund ‘charity’. Developing…

If Les was any more a pig he’d oink.
Apparently Les likes the lads nice and young.
I reckon it’s great that the branches out there in the Western suburbs are thriving- literally bubbling over with enthusiasm for the party.
Clearly Les can’t tolerate success!!!
Any likely lads want to come on my camp?
Whats an Anglo??????????
That’s not actually what Les said.
Outrageous!
Very, very serious libels.
Party rules make it difficult for genuine people to join the ALP. Twentyman is merely trying to force people to join other political parties like Family First or even the Liberals.
There is a limit of thirteen people per branch meeting. I tried to join a branch in Brimbank recently and I was unable to as there were more than the thirteen. I was told I’d just have to wait in the queue.
That’s not good enough for a mass party that wants members. Twentyman has too much influence on certain shonky people in the ALP who want to stop genuine people from joining. Twentyman is not even an ALP member yet some scumbags listen to him.
I love these second rate dullards like Twentyman that believe any “ethnic” member must be a stack and any white member is legitimate. Thankfully new wavers in the Liberal Party such as Turnbull and Frydenberg have been doing their part to stamp out these unfair racial assumptions by showing that you can just as easy stack out a branch with a bunch of honkys if you want to.
Why has this man got his own column in our local rag???…which is no doubt free campaigning space for his budding political career as the voice for the “downtrodden” in the west.”respekt the west” catchcries of his last failed election campaign …take some advice Les …the way you respect the west is to embrace the diversity and the membership for anyone to freely associate with any group they feel represents them , this should be encouraged because the west is indeed lacking political voice of these very groups that need it most ethnics and women…unlike people with free columns in local papers that constantly grandstand and whinge about the ALP and ethnics….your column is read by no one and is a source of bemusement one can painfully see struggling for relevance …while the west is moving forwards.
I swear…I didnt realize that they were “ethnics” when I signed them into my branch. As soon as stopped dribbling all over them, they joined voluntarily….no preassure…honest!!
