A Tory MP has mocked a woman who praised the Samaritans, and as you would expect it has left people furious.
Tan Smith, better known online by the alias ‘Supertanskiii’ took to Twitter to discuss what happened.
“I love Glasto but it’s a battle of endurance, especially for those with severe ADHD symptoms but no hope of help due to the Tories decimating the NHS. I cried a lot, both from joy and being overwhelmed.
“He was v kind. Talking for a few moments and letting it out gave me the energy to carry on …. I didn’t catch his name but had a little cry on my walk back, out of gratitude that people can be so wonderful.
“It might have seemed insignificant but it’s incredible how much a chat and letting it out, saying it all out loud, can really help,” she wrote.

She ended the thread writing: “Twitter if you can find this man it’d be lovely to say a direct thank you! It might have seemed insignificant but it’s incredible how much a chat and letting it out, saying it all out loud, can really help.”

In response Tory MP Brendan Clarke-Smith tweeted: “Vile Internet troll in personal issues shock. Cares little for the welfare of others however when spouting her foul-mouthed bile on twitter. Excuse me for playing the world’s smallest violin.”
