This 20-year-old Reform UK council leader demonstrated his maturity and professionalism by saying Green Party members smell – 19 votes of no confidence
We regret to inform you that George Finch has been at it again. And by ‘it’, we mean being immature and cringey.
That would be all well and good if he were just any recently-turned-20-year-old, but young Mr Finch is the head of Reform-run Warwickshire County Council.
The youngest council leader in the country has already narrowly survived a vote of no confidence due to numerous errors, but the reason most people are familiar with him is because he went viral for being a cringeworthy, gaffe-prone, real-life David Brent.
Feast your eyes on this.

The reason he’s caught our attention again is thanks to the comment he made to the Mirror about why he wouldn’t want to attend the Green Party conference.

“The Greens – they just need Febreze everywhere because they smell.”
We’re sure a teenage spokesperson from the Green Party will soon be dispatched to say “We’re rubber, you’re glue. Bounce off us and stick to you.” That’ll sort it.

It's a routine he's used before, performed ad nauseum a bit like #30pLee Anderson does.

Doesn’t look like George has washed his hair for a significant time period.

He’s really young and naive. This won’t catch up with him today, but it will haunt him in the near future. https://t.co/NVnqmMCocW
