Re: Councillor Kazi Siddique - fir for public office
It was an accusation and given this site is not really the vehicle for the sort of accusation made then I think it was correctly deleted tp protect the site and indeed the accused until such time as it gets in to the public domain through the 'proper' channels.
My guess is that most people enjoy Accyweb as a community forum and like to discuss and form an opinion on any decisions made by official bodies, the post made took it beyond that boundary.
I also realise that I need to be quicker off the mark in copying and saving so I can make a fast buck out of deleted posts

Re: Councillor Kazi Siddique - fir for public office
I have to say I know nothing and missed the deleted post. If there was an allegation of Council impropriety I would take it up if it merited it.
I want to vote for the Mayorality based on hard work, length of service and honesty. However since the late 90's when shenangans have dominated the position, it has become 'non-political' with a small p. In others words no-one is allowed to make criticisms and we all vote the same way.
I don't agree with this but Labour colleagues believe it is for the greater good that we accept the rules of one Tory one Labour in alternate years (as laid down by PB), chosen by that years party, and fully supported by the other side whatever their feelings happen to be. This way the office of Mayor is not dragged down by politics.
Kazi Siddique is down to be the next Mayor. However the selection for Mayor should have taken place as per usual in January. I suspect the Tories have held off till after the election because they can gain votes Central Ward to gain votes by word of mouth, but by not being published in the press pre-election, the Tories will not lose votes everywhere else where people would be against it in all probability.

Re: Councillor Kazi Siddique - fir for public office
I missed it too. But I had a sneaking suspicion that this thread was going to be like the last one, and keep us hanging on for very little substance.

Re: Councillor Kazi Siddique - fir for public office
Finally, he's come out and actually named the person he's gunning for - shame it's got him banned. I presume he's been banned because of the potential libel. Wish I'd seen what he wrote - just out of curiosity you understand.
