Presumably the legal opinion given was that the Kashmir item WAS a legitimate issue to be raised at Council. If we feel strongly that it shouldn't have been, we should be lobbying the Council to change the constitution.

In the meantime, we can't complain if any councillor acts within the rules. We can adopt a Daily Mail style of xenophobic ranting, but a more constructive path to go down might be reviewing the constitution.
