And to allow one man to dictate our response would be a complete cop out. No I am afraid the Tories have always been too selfish too driven by the versted interests of the private sector and too right wing for me, and whatever my sympathies with some aspects of Labour Party policy I am not an authoritarian Stalinist and never will be. Whatever sympathy I may have had for them has been totally scuppered by their total disregard of human life and human rights, not only Iraqis but our own children who we sent as cannon fodder. So, my liberal instincts mean I have to stay and fight if need be, there are enough good people in my party to make that fight winnable. xxxLinda Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155438246679688058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22057922.post-69051017840415443452007-02-13T23:14:00.000+00:002007-02-13T23:14:00.000+00:00The Liberal Democrat party seems like an appalling...The Liberal Democrat party seems like an appalling party for those supposedly targeted by Shit-chin's portfolio.<BR/><BR/>Time to ship out to a party which is "a political party" rather than one which is "apolitical" at best and "politically incorrect" most of the time.<BR/><BR/>Orange Book - go to the Tories. Social-minded - go to Labour. The complete and utter fiasco of the Lib Dems and equality should be the signal for mass desertions. Even the Tories are now treating women and black and minority ethnic communities better.<BR/><BR/>This beggars belief it really does.Chris Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15679067503215414300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22057922.post-35304754848963761762007-02-13T17:04:00.000+00:002007-02-13T17:04:00.000+00:00It beggars belief that someone who was leader of I...It beggars belief that someone who was leader of Islington Council, a place that has been at the cutting edge of equalities for 20 years, would call a colleague 'luv', and then claim that having a woman or an ethnic minority to head up a Diversity Fund, would be 'tokenism'<BR/>He would never have got away with this when he was a councillor.<BR/>He has lost all credibility by these actions.<BR/>I heard that when he lost his seat on the Council, someone suggested to Ming that they should give him something to do.<BR/>How sad, that Ming has unwittingly entrusted such a person to any position.

If it had at least been contested then it would have been more defensible. <BR/><BR/>Sadly though this kind of appointment of like for like is making the whole issue harder to combat. <BR/><BR/>Let's hope that CGB and EMLD are in a position to continue to support such activities in future - let's hope that they have the means to do so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
