There's been some counter allegations. Cllr Allah Dad was the first to make a complaint in fact. No evidence to my knowledge was presented by Mr Dad, just allegations.
Mr Ali has presented a dossier of facts and photos - which I have seen.
The Liberals had serious allegations, facts addresses, statements, presented them to the Labour Party but then backed off after I am led to believe, speaking to the Conservatives.
Mr Dad' supporters were warned on the day and have broken several rules openly. This is accepted. Conservative supporters caused mayhem on the day and were called in by Mr Ali for bullying and intimidation. Several neutral sources confirm this and action was taken on the day against Mr Dad's supporters.
There has been subsequently a counter allegation by Saftar Ali against Munsif Dad in Spring Hill which I know without a shred of doubt to be completely bogus.
What's happened is those that look guilty are trying an old and tested method, spread the preverbal and everyone will covered and they will get away with it.
My message to these people is that I represent East Accrington and no amount of sour grapes, or community pressure, will have any impact with people around here, or myself.
