As Graham says, George Slynn is a creature out of Labour's socialist past. Now that New Labour is in so many ways more Conservative than the Conservative Party, it should come as no surprise that they would regard him as an embarassment and want to get rid of him. I am surprised at the Liberal's accepting him though.

However, his administration was a disaster for the borough and it looks as though the current idiot in chief is following his lead. Stupidity, lack of imagination and mendacity observe no political boundaries.

I seem to remember, at some time in the early seventies, George Slynn campaigning for election to HBC in the Springhill Ward as a Liberal Candidate. Perhaps someone would be kind enough to either confirm or refute this notion.
