I'm sorry you felt attacked.
(Just wait until you're allowed out into the real world. That'll be much more scary.)
Someone posted they were worried you might not be spending enough time studying, whilst you were hopelessly scrambling around, looking for some sort of defence for the shamefully increased allowances the Conservatives awarded themselves.

I'd sack the cat.
It's doing a terrible job for him, and so are you.

I really do beleive Clare that it would be a good thing if Peter did contribute on Accy Web.
One of the strengths of Accy Web in my view, is that important issues can be discussed in a civilized way.
And Councillors ought to be involved in that. After all we as Councillors make dicisions that effect peoples lives in Hyndburn.

There are no Labour lies. (Name me a Labour lie?) Don't call me a liar unless you can prove it, or you'll get the same problem as your boss, a legal letter. I am not in the mood to deal with gutter people like you who make capital put of people's personal problems.
Never mind accepting apologies, how about apologising yourself.
If I win selection in Accy South I intend to fill it up with 10 Tory sponsors, so sick of you they are. My agent is a Thatcherite, my sponsor an ex Tory Councillor.
This is not blue v red. It's about making sure people like you never represent us.

I'm very sorry that you don't want somebody who just gives our the clear representations to people, to represent you. For example when I clearly showed Hyndburn didn't have the most expensive council tax in the country. Some councillors were saying it was and trying to confuse people. Some councillors even call members of the public nasty names, and accuse them of conspiring with the council leader, they even come and post when a FOI request is made and have a huge go at a member of the public, despite it being completely legitimate.

What's good and what's bad? It said I was a centrist.

I was a borderline centrist - but bordering with left liberal.

Re: Expenses, expenses...
After reading through some of these threads, i don't feel andrewb has anything to apologise for. He clearly responds with complete understanding and accurate knowledge of local issues. In my view a person with his clear qualities, determination and a common sense approach would be a very suitable candidate to hold a political position in the future. A person of this stature should be appreciated for his stance on local Politics in terms of his empathy and understanding towards the residents of Hyndburn. From one who is familiar with local Politics!

Well another one of Andrew's freinds springing to his aid. By the way just how familiar are you with local politics - I know you have posted on Andrew's far right wing website.
