Re: Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
 

Presumably, in the light of the history of racial tensions in the area and the country, it is morally and legally incumbent on councillors, whatever their racial origin, to promote integration as the greatest good. Presumably this responsibility falls heavier on councillors with a significant ethnic make up in their respective electorates than on other councillors.

One has to wonder therefore, in the light of the ongoing Kashmiri related activities of the Dads (I assume because of the surname that they are related in some way), just what are they up to? Because, to me, it seems that far from promoting integration with and into the host society, these two are doing just about their level best to promote the exact opposite.

I also wonder wether the time has not come come for a serious investigation into the activities and attitudes of the Dads. Please correct me if I am wrong but, wasn't A. Dad's name linked with alleged electoral irregularities?

Emails sent to Indian/Pakistani newspapers in the UK, and US, saying this resolution was not passed in my name.

As someone who has actively, and publicly opposed racism since the age of 15, and finds what our council is doing is both divisive, and politically motivated by ethnicity/race, as well as nothing to do with local issues, extremist groups must be thanking their lucky stars, for all the good work H.B.C. is doing on their behalf.

Well to me the most galling thing about this whole issue is that they can even find time to even discuss this situation which quite obviously doesn't effect Hyndburn on bit, it doesn't help keep out streets clean or our bins emptied or help the regeneration of the Town centre on iota. If people, who have settled on our shores, want to get involved with things going on in their country of birth, fine, carry on, but don't waste the time of a council which is already hard pressed to deliver the services we require here in Hyndburn

They probably thought it was just another ten minutes of council time, wasted in supporting yet another demand, for H.B.C. to add their weight to a controversial propaganda campaign, and that no one would notice.

Ya was very interesting that Rindi, no preference to any special groups, well not as you'd notice ;)

Re: Internationalist approach at H.B.C.
 

Quite agree.

People are free to protest against whatever they want.

H.B.C. should not be being used, to add weight to any side, in a controversial issue, which is an international matter, and nothing at all to do with a local borough council's business.

Or shouldn't be.
