Liberal Democrat Parliamentary candidate jailed after killing cat

It’s not only dogs which have an unfortunate place in the party’s history, for as The Shuttle reports,

A former parliamentary candidate from Kidderminster was locked up for bludgeoning the family cat to death with a walking stick in a fit of rage.

Michael Dixon was sentenced to four months in prison with a lifetime ban on keeping animals, after he lost his temper and battered the pet, leaving her to die in a pool of blood, before calmly telling his family: “I’ve killed the cat.”

The horrific attack happened at the former LibDem candidate’s home in Warbler Place on May 14 last year, after five-year-old Tipsy scratched his grandson.

  1. What a horrible man. A vile creature!!!! 4 months is not enough for taking a innocent life. Just because a cat scratched someone. Im sure the cat didnt know the extent of his scratching. He is a cat after all. And this vile creature murdered his OWN cat.
    If he was my husband i would have divorced him straight away. Horrible Horrible Man. Hope you rot in hell. !!!!!
