I've said before that I would have preferred not to vote on it but we couldn't throw it out and I dislike abstaining.

Would it be possible for you to repeat (in simple terms) what it was that was so convincing about Cllr Munsif Dad of Springhill ward's balanced overview of the situation there, that overwhelmed the Councillors to back Kashmir? After all, it did make our little area quite popular/unpopular with certain members of the press Worldwide.
Could I also ask, again, reluctantly, should our Council get involved with International Politics, when we can't keep our heads above water with local issues?
