Calder Valley MP Craig Whittaker criticised for sharing joke comparing Labour to Jimmy Savile examiner.co.uk/news/west-york…

Not only has Craig Whittaker not deleted tweet or apologised - it shows up on home page of his website too

So @Whittaker4mp is back tweeting again, with the offending RT still in place and no apology. Really? Be a man and take responsibility!

Everyone at school talking about Craig Whittaker's Jimmy Savile gaffe even the politically unaware Josh Fenton-Glynn MP

Great team out in Ryburn today, 3 rounds completed. Here we are in dryer times. #LabourDooorstep

Five tweets from @Whittaker4mp today and non an apology for his offensive & crass comments about Savile. #shameful

Hello @PHammondMP do you think @Whittaker4mp should apologise for his #Savile tweet or do you approve of his behaviour #toxicCraig.

@HxCourierJon @Whittaker4mp Mail Online The people of calder valley will judge him on this behaviour. #notfitforpublicoffice

Craig Whittaker's party condemn his behaviour, will Rt Hon Sir Grant Shapps now take action? x.com/danny_murphy1/…

To all supporters - we are looking back on a campaign well fought tomorrow at the works in Sowerby Bridge tomorrow facebook.com/events/1625440…

I'm told Calder Valley Labour has double the number of members we had when I stood for selection as candidate. Our campaign reached a lot of ppl.

We would like to welcome @Whittaker4mp back to Twitter. It's a shame he didn't delete his tweet that offended so many while he was away!

Looking forward to joining Calder Valley Labour and @CllrSi on the #LabourDoorstep this weekend in Mytholmroyd. Join us facebook.com/events/1054622…

We are looking forward to choosing who Calder Valley Labour's CLP will nominate for leader and deputy on Tuesday 28th
