Bollocks . No-one would would do that

I have just explained I am aware of at least 6 people that did. Your rational answer to that is 'Bollocks'? No real argument so you resort to abuse. Not like you Keith.

I have acknowledged from the start that the Tories do have that particular problem anyway. It is just the scale of the problem under discussion.

Well, I don't recall you ever having said that the Tories had the same problem. In fact your phrase was "other parties do not have such a problem" but, what the heck, you admit that they do now. Apology accepted. Yes, it is indeed a question of scale and as Raggy has pointed out the issue seems to be 6 times as bad with the Tories. I am not convinced that this is right and strongly suspect that the number or abusers, as a percentage, is pretty level across the political spectrum. As it is across all walks of life.
