David Silvester UKIP Cllr Henley on Thames Town Council Former Uppingham School Pupil and Baptist Church Leader Blames Flooding on Gay Marriage


David Silvester UKIP Cllr Henley on Thames Town Council Former Uppingham School Pupil and Baptist Church Leader Blames Flooding on Gay Marriage.

He is also a former Tory which could explain a lot.

Cllr Silvester has written a Old Testament standard letter to the Henley Standard.





December 2013 Mr Silvester then still a Tory wrote to his leader:

“If you had been a Bible student for well over 50 years, as I have, you would know that you are proposing to officially condone behaviour which the Bible dismisses as anathema.


“Now, as Prime Minister, you are free to do that if you wish. What you are not free to do, and what only an Almighty God is free to do, is to control the divine consequences of your proposed action.

“In this same word, God has written, ‘those who honour me, I will honour, and those who dishonour me, I will dishonour.’ It is my belief that if you go ahead with this legislation, you will again experience another tranche of God’s displeasure within your ministry.

“What will happen precisely, and whether this time it will be terminal, I cannot say. But surely the Conservative Party has had enough discouragement in the last year without you and your ministers courting more.”

Mr Sylvester and his Tory friends objected to the Clothing Brand Fat Face.

David Silvester said it should be changed to “something more poetic” and planning committee chairman Dieter Hinke suggested “English Rose” while Elizabeth Hodgkin said the name was “just horrible” and “really weird”.



The name 'Fat Face' was inspired by Le Face, an Olympic black run in the skiing area of Val d' Isere in France. The First Store opened in France so I think English Rose would be a bit odd.
