Nothing to do with party line, but if you need to use that excuse to justify my thoughts to yourself, then so be it. Like I said, a very rocky road to go down to suggest no smoke without fire when people and events are CLEARED of any wrong doing.

Re: Police Probe Vote Rigging Complaints
In arabic cultures it is considered OK to lie when the motive is good. They call it taqiyya
Taqiyya - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Islam Watch - "Understanding Taqiyya ― Islamic Principle of Lying for the Sake of Allah" by Warner MacKenzie
When taqiyya is used to avoid making an admission or concession it is simply an essential means of ensuring that ones honour and standing remain intact and untarnished.

Koran
Al-taqiyya and dissimulation are words used for a practice of Muslims blatantly lying to non-Muslims. All but some of the most fundamental Muslims consider the act of Al-taqiyya or lying to non-Muslims to be a good work.

well that's daft as you know I would vote conservative without hesitation. Proxy votes are to represent the wishes of the absent voter.

Church Ward is a heavy Asian ward. There was just 1 proxy vote this year in that ward.
