Re: Are You Safe In His Taxi

Ianto worte:

''Why is this not a major issue, that his command of the English language is limited, Mr Siddique as a councillor has or is supposed to represent all his constituents. This is England not Pakistan. Hear my song Violetta''

You clearly have a point, and one with which I concur. In my considered view, the Councillor must represent all members of his ward, and thus if an ability to commmunicate effectively is an impediment then surely it must be considered.

Ultimately, it is the voting public that dictate whether this issue is sufficiently important to them. When I stated that it was not a 'major' issue, I suggested it relative to other issues about these Councillors I considered more important.

Should you have a grievance about the credentails candidates selected as Councillors by a political party, then I cheerfully recommend that you take up the issue with the party concerned.
