Councillor Kazi Siddique - fir for public office

gondola · 16-04-2007, 15:13

The conduct of Kazi Siddique as councillor is at best imperfect. Councillor Jones amongst others has questioned his credentials and dedication as councillor and as possible mayor going forward.

However it is not his dedication that ought to be questioned. It may be noteworthy but there are other far more pressing matters.

Allow me to elucidate thus enabling readers to make their own judgement.

OK, you are allowed to elucidate...we are waiting. Oh, and while you are at it, how about qualifying your remarks about the conduct of Cllr. Siddique? Or is this going to be another one of your "I know something that you don't know" exercises?

I do hope this does not turn in to another 30page thread with no actual substance what so ever.

i thought fir was banned?

Perhap's he's doing a Dickens, and just giving us one installment per week.

There was substance but it has been deleted presumably because nobody knows if it's truthful substance or rumour.

WillowTheWhisp · 16-04-2007, 18:39

And now he's banned so we'll never know - which is probably just as well.

andrewb · 16-04-2007, 19:11

I don't really agree with him being banned, unless he was banned for reasons we don't know about.

Everyone has a right to voice their opinion don't they?

Could well have been something slanderous which would have brought the board into disrepute.

Perhaps. But I dont think Roy is responsible for the content posted by other people.. although it would be a good idea to remove it if it was simply an accusation with no real proof.

E.g. if somebody posted racist content I dont think Roy could be prosecuted for it.

No, maybe not...but it does bring the site into disrepute...especially if he is saying something that has no bearing in fact...just his own opinion.
Opinions are not fact.

andrewb · 16-04-2007, 19:39

Yes true. I suppose it depends what it was, but i'd always like to be able to air my opinions no matter what they were.. but I guess im not likely to make them without some sort of evidence because it doesn't go down too well, understandably!

Margaret Pilkington · 16-04-2007, 19:56

Cyfr...you can air your opinions and beliefs as long as they don't masquerade as facts.
