Just been onto border patrols, they have orders to let you in.
Wipe your feet on the way in, please.
Surely that should be on the way out
If Labour gain control Wyn you will notice a drying up of opinions on here, believe meSeems a poor do to me when a Labour MP of Asian origin, perhaps even a Muslim, can condemn in the most uncompromising terms, as I posted in an earlier thread, but local Labour councillors don't have the bottle to speak out.
Anyway, Ken, you just keep on sharing your views with us...until the men from Transport House come round to "have a word"!

Being a former political agent for a certain someone, you must be used to coming a close second.

Meaning the Conservatives would be more vocal in opposition?
Oh goodie.
I haven't commented before because I agree with most of what' s been said. I'm just a bit disappointed that because someone hasn't commented they are presumed by some to have a different opinion.
Can i also say that on Remembrance Day in the morning i was in Oak Hill Park laying a wreath in the morning. In the afternoon I was in Ossy for the Remembarence day parade.Last Thursday I was outside the town hall for Remembrance Day itself
I mention these, not to seek praise, but because I think it's right that we remember those that I've given their lives for this Country.And we should never forget that sacrifice.

Don't hold your breathe GMeaning the Conservatives would be more vocal in opposition?

You're a member of a major political party, albeit at a local level, so you're one of the few connections we've got with the world of mainstream politics. We're, therefore, interested in your opinion.
The intrigue is also heightened by the fact that the media, especially the leftwing media, have swept the matter under the carpet, presumably in the hope that it'll go away. Unfortunately, it won't and if moderate, reasonable politicians like yourself don't speak out about it, you're leaving the way wide open for rightwing extremists to vent their bile on the guilty and the innocent alike, simply because of their race. So, take a leaf out of Ken's book and let's be hearing from you!
if one comments or not on such issues, it occurs to me that "Probably" extremists n there supporters whilst in a minority, are very unlikely to vote IMHO.! to my mind therefore nowt to lose by speaking yer mind, its also quite possible to me that quite a few who have stopped voting fer whatever reason, may return to the ballot box, if politicos had the balls to speak out, it aint rocket science, more chance of folk returning than extremists voting?
I do feel a little guilty, because I named you, and others named you and Cllr. Smith.
I apologise Bernard.
There are more than you two councillors on this forum, so you really shouldn't have been singled out to comment.
However, I do think it would have been a wise, as well as helpful move, if our representatives at local government level had made a public statement somewhere, saying that they condemned this outrage.
Local people have been hurt, and are angry.
Local people have also been hurt, and are probably angry, because some will now tar them with the same brush as the morons who burned the poppies.
People should speak out.
I would if I was a local Iman.
I would if I was an elected member of a local government.
No one speaks.
Silence.
The embers smoulder.
Can you wait until I get back from France, will gladly support this and wear my medals? Let anyone insult those and it could be a painful experience.
