Some are perfectly friendly until it comes time for voting on equality issues. I wish Sharon was here to answer a few questions about immigration and inter-community cohesion so that you could see what the problem is. The rest of the time I agree, she's perfectly friendly.

You've got it wrong. They have their fair share of the seats on the scrutiny committees, in proporion with the number of seats on the Council. You have to remember there are only 4 of them to 23 Lib Dems, so it's hardly likely we're going to put them in charge of anything much. Besides, as a Lib Dem, I disagree profoundly with many BNP policies, but upold their right to campaign for them.

I've no idea what you mean. As far as I know, Gary Glitter (or whatever his real name is) is a convicted criminal currently serving a sentence in Thailand. I could be wrong - I haven't checked. What exactly are you asking? What party line are you talking about?
