    ‘Look Forward’

    I just find such behaviour impacts on all political parties. I find it all rather sad and any gloating by any political party in misguided as we all have such individuals within our respective parties.

    Get real. Just imagine how both Tories and Labour would have used this against the Lib Dems if a Lib Dem PPC in a target parliamentary seat was found guilty of similar behaviour.
