| I'm surprised you say I'm living in a time warp. You have made frequent references on various leads to the events of 1987 and the alleged purging of non-Labour elements from the committee of the New Ivybridge Tenants Association. The fact that the person thrown off the committee (Alan Mineham) was a member of the National Front is never mentioned in your posts. You have implied that the purging went deeper than that and that only pro-Labour people were allowed on. You have frequently stated that those events were the real reasons why the ICG was established - and have even proclaimed that Labour lost control of the local authority in 2006 because of its actions in those far off days. As far as I'm aware, the HRG still exists. (Its members cenrtainly do). I'm pretty sure that last year the front page of one edition of the Informer made reference to Andy Atkinson as someone who sits of the Police Community Consultative body as an HRG representative. The ICG allied itself to the HRG back in 1996. Its leading protagonists continue to be your most vocal supporters. Can you not understand why some doubt the sincerity of your conversion? What off-the-record discussions take place between you and these arch right wingers that convinces them that you are so worthy of their enthusiastic support? As for the issues of HARH and community cohesion, didn't you bemoan the lack of co-operation you received from Labour on this issue - something which you claimed was done for political purposes? Having said all of that, we have been going way off the subject of this thread. Doesn't it warn in the Code of Conduct about posting off-subject messages? |
