And we have met, you just don't remember. You were right and I was wrong.

Re: Police Probe Vote Rigging Complaints
Thanks Roy, because only by discussing things openly will a better version of the truth come out. Not my version, but a better version, a better democracy, better decisions. And if no-one else is prepared to a put a foot forward, I will. I am last on the list of important things. Without clearing the air, politicians will go on telling porkies, filling their ego's and fooling the public (defrauding the the voting TGBOT). My time in politics has always been about ending this culture. Ring any of the other 12 Labour Councillors (or residents in Peel that know me) and see, of my time, if this is true. End of.

Graham there is no such things as a 'better' version of the truth - nor can there be a worse version of the truth. There is the truth simple as that!

I am happy to tell the truth, I dont care what party people are from, it makes no difference who you are, or what your background is, I am happy to represent anyone. Would you like to support the truth, and support me for council?

Just a couple of questions, if you were really so angry at what you say you heard why has it taken you all this time to say anything about it? Also why the need to air it on a public forum?? Well out of order IMHO

There is truth, and truth. There can't be a 'version' of truth, that'd be a lie I'd guess. I don't support lies. I know I am a Conservative, but if they blatantly lied, I would call it, I would say it is wrong. If someone comes up to me and gives evidence of the local Conservatives being dishonest, I would happily, publicly, denounce them. No doubt about that, principles are more important than party allegiance, I'm sure you agree with that cashy.

Yes certainly agree with you, and the voter turnout at recent elections backs it up. We need more transparency, and honesty in our system for people to become engaged again. It's all ok me believing in that, me enacting that, but I'm just an ordinary citizen, we need the parliamentarians from all parties to realise it.

I tend to agree Gayle, but in my experience there are two sides to every tale and the truth falls somewhere in the middle

Re: Police Probe Vote Rigging Complaints
Public demonstrations of mutual loathing destroys the credibility and reputations of both of you.
