		<description>I won&#039;t dignify Richard&#039;s homophobic, vile and incoherent ranting with an answer because it doesn&#039;t deserve one.

David - the reasons we&#039;ve not given advice or criticism to the Hazel Must Go campaign is because we don&#039;t think there&#039;s any point - you haven&#039;t a cat in hell&#039;s chance of getting in, and frankly the closest challenge and best hope of getting Hazel out is to vote Lib Dem.</description>

		<description>You&#039;d have thought so, but there are few active lib dems on the ground in East Salford for some reason... but I do indeed have a lot of time and respect for the work of Liberal Democrats - especially in Parliament and the Lords despite having a few ideological disagreements.

Oh come on Richard! Would you be willing to provide hard evidence that I am a &quot;practising sodomite&quot;? -I doubt it unless you&#039;ve been hanging around outside my bedroom window like you do outside that Brothel in Swinton! Besides, I&#039;ve not &quot;had any&quot; in quite a while, I&#039;m settled with my partner and like most long-term relationships sex goes on a back burner after a few years - now it&#039;s all about the LOVE! You know that! :)

If sex before Marriage is a Sin, surely you should welcome Nick Clegg&#039;s support to ensure it is more inclusive (long time coming - the Greens have supported it for years) - you may think homosexuality is a Sin, but at least if &quot;the gays&quot; can join in then you can rest assured they&#039;ll be committing one less Sin to burn in the bowels of hell for!</description>

		<description>I&#039;d have thought David Henry would be best buddies with the Lib Dems.

Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg is on public record as supporting gay &#039;marriage&#039; and as wanting all schools to teach that homosexuality is normal and harmless (which it certainly isn&#039;t).  Nick Clegg also wants infected gay blood (which is currently banned) in the national blood bank.

As a practising sodomite and a militant gay activist David Henry couldn&#039;t ask for anything more than what the Lib Dems stand for.</description>

		<description>Was he even there? Perhaps we should check the signing in sheets, maybe he used an alias?

Who is this Cllr O&#039;Neil figure?! I think I&#039;ve seen him around, shame he left the Lib Dems but it sounds as if you are better off without him! The &quot;Independent&quot; brand certainly isn&#039;t getting much of credibility at the moment. Mr O&#039;neil certainly wasn&#039;t sat with our other friendly Liberal-leaning City Councillors! 

I&#039;ve invited Cllr Norman Owen along to previous meeting including the one back in September where we had a brief chat and we were delighted he came along, unfortunately he&#039;s not had much to say - everyone&#039;s had their opportunity including the Lib Dems, the Chair of the Salford and Eccles CLP had her two-pence, a few Tories and the vast majority of people who don&#039;t currently vote - goodness even Richard Carvath contributed at one stage but not a word of advice or even constructive criticism from the Liberal Democrats... 

Although I still have a great deal of time for you folks even if the most prominent of your collective don&#039;t have a lot to say for yourselves.

Warmest Wishes</description>

		<description>Oh please - you&#039;re clutching at straws. 

&quot;perhaps if he put on a German accent, and i closed my eyes it could have been 1939 all over again?”

You&#039;re really trying to tell me that that comment isn&#039;t likening cllr. Nellis to a Nazi? Seriously? If you believe that then you&#039;re lying to yourself. 

Perhaps there was some non-Nazi &#039;ranting&#039; German politician making speeches in 1939 that your father was likening cllr. Nellis to? Didn&#039;t think so.</description>

		<description>Is the word Nazi mentioned in the post?                                   Could he have been making comparison to the worrying eminence of forthright individuals with unwavering ideological viewpoints and the ability these individuals have to garner an almost cult like reverence among followers. 
Councillor J.O&#039;neill used a crude analogy but I know he adhores all branches of extremism. This is another example of Liberal histrionics.</description>
