Let me be clear. Much as I want to help IDS into early retirement, I will NOT stand down only to let in to government a hard left Corbyn led Labour party whose union paymasters will prevent Remain and whose policies are a route to bankruptcy. Use your 'tactical' vote with care.
My good friends @drmarktwitchett and @martinrosner are taking responsibility for LibDem work in Churchfields ward Redbridge and this FB page will describe the issues they are dealing with. Please follow them if you live in the borough.
We have just launched a Facebook page for Churchfields Ward. I would be grateful if you would kindly like/follow our new page & perhaps invite your friends to follow us, too. Wish us luck, Mark...

Not on that subject. But he had the benefit of my invective in an open letter on his personal responsibility for the disaster yet to visited on this country by leaving the EU. If you are interested you can find on the Twitter trail. Are we done?
That's the way it was. It was not a fringe issue and was another example of Corbyn's support for questionable causes. I was always going to have the opportunity to challenge on the main issues - including Labour's incomprehensible Brexit policy - and I did.
IHRC and Corbyn' s support for it was reported in the national press that week and I thought the enormity of his misjudgment should be drawn to the attention of C&WG constituents. Additionally, I have a particular interest in and knowledge of Iran.
Why are you banging on about this?
The letter sought the view of the local Labour candidate on Corbyn's praise for a UK charity that denied the abuse of (Moslem) human rights in Iran. I have stated publicly that the candidate's sex, religion, ethnicity etc was immaterial.
Sorry you left for the reason you did. Come back. The fight to gain reason and compassion in our politics goes on and we are unlikely to create a personality cult around our next leader
......and there we have it. LDs, Tory rebels and SNP could not trust Corbyn with support for VONC- as a pro-Brexiteer he could have esconced himself in No 10 for years with no referendum and a clutch of idiotic policies. Labour should have rid themselves of this millstone.
Now we know what you don't like. As it happens I (and LibDem colleagues) would have much preferred a referendum on the Johnson (non) deal. We would have torn it to shreds! But it was not going to happen - what would you have had us do?
You have lost me. First I was to be ashamed because I am a bigot, next I was personally responsible for Labour losing the election and now all Libdems are at fault for acceding to one- which Corbyn had been calling for since 2017. Let's be honest - you just don't like LibDems
I never knew I had such a large family and so many friends! There is always a core LD vote but without an LD candidate many of the 2744 would not have voted at all. The fear of Corbyn and an infeasible manifesto, supported enthusiastically by FS handed LD votes to the Tory. Mate
Read it again. The only person to highlight the fact that FS is of the Muslim faith was FS herself. All I did was to ask whether she as the principal representative of Labour in C&WG could support a leader who commended an organisation that denied abuse of human rights in Iran.
What a charmer you are! And you don't let up in the face of all the evidence. I doubt there is a single person who voted LD in C&WG that would have voted Labour had I not stood. Corbyn drove moderate Labour sympathisers and LDs into the arms of Tories. So much for your logic!
So I and pro-Europe LibDems are to blame for Brexit and the non-electable pro-Brexit Corbyn (the subject of my letter - read it!) and his equivocal party are not. Nice logic!
Evidence of Labour "activists" not instructed in electoral law handing out leaflets in entrance to polling stations in C&WG reported to Chief Returning Officer. As this deemed initimidation, action is being taken.
Yes, I would be happy to campaign against Johnson's damaging deal - we would tear it to shreds. Or are you all saying you prefer to Brexit with a 'credible' deal? And attached is what I think of Mr Smith - a letter written in July to which of course I have had no reply.
Let me be clear. Much as I want to help IDS into early retirement, I will NOT stand down only to let in to government a hard left Corbyn led Labour party whose union paymasters will prevent Remain and whose policies are a route to bankruptcy. Use your 'tactical' vote with care.
