He wasn't actually thrown out of the Chiswick Area Forum, but he behaved so ... I'll say disruptively (in the eyes of the then-Chairman) that he was threatened with removal. Which is a bit surprising, since I have met David and in person he is perfectly courteous, but the disrespect shown to the locally elected representatives was, sadly, reminiscent of Ed Mayne's attitude, ie contemptuous of the process. Bear in mind I stood against the Riverside Councillors in May, so I don't have a brief in their favour as individuals, but I do have a high regard for the democratic process, flawed though it is, and it pains me to see people flout it. |
