Re: should benefit cheats be allowed to be councillors

No person with a criminal record should be allowed to stand for public office.
I'm not too sure Jim. What if a person made a mistake at 16 and got themself a conviction, for arguments sake lets say it was for the theft of a packet of bacon from the Spar.

They then go on to put their past well and truly behind them and at 40 decide they would like to serve the community by standing for election.

Would you say no or would you listen to their case?
