Thank you for this Jon. As ever you are a gentleman and I can only stand back and admire the patience, good grace and casual simplicity with which you have addressed this continual misrepresenting of your position. "Liar" is not a word that I throw around gratuitously, but I could not and still cannot understand how Dawn could continue to pursue the line that you had abstained even after I had conclusively demonstrated to her, with reference to prevoius posts, that this was not the case. From my point of view she compounded her "error" by stating, in reply to Paul, that I had said you had abstained. I'm afraid this rather guaranteed a response from me. The fact that she resorted to verbal abuse rather than correct herself once I had pointed this out led me, not unreasonably in my opinion, to the view that she was engaging either in some kind of wind-up or else in a wilful attempt to decieve other posters who may not have read earlier contributions to the thread. I felt disappointed and let down by the knowledge that, as a humble Conservative voter rather than a party activist or spokesperson, she was capable of behaving in such a crudely dishonest way. On reflection I still believe Dawn is with us in spirit on this important issue. Unfortunately I would suggest that spirit may have had rather more to do with her performance over the past couple of days than perhaps it ought to have done. |
