Absolutely Spot on Jen, and to me it was a better way to run the council that this cabinet system too

Terrible, that feeling.

I have it right now.

After our council recently voted to support a resolution favouring only one side in the Kashmir conflict, despite there being reported evidence that there have been horrendous human rights abuses, and violent atrocities carried out by both sides in this conflict.

How did you vote Clare?

It might ease that sick to the stomach feeling, if I know.

Good morning, Councillor Dawson, how nice to see you here!

Perhaps we could ask YOU to tell us how you voted on the above issue?
