Dave Osler On Tossers

Probably much to his horror/surprise, I quite often find things I agree with on the blog of fellow N16 resident Dave Osler, Dave's Part.

His description on Tuesday of LibDem council candidates was particularly good: "the vast majority of council candidate-level activists in Ming Campbell’s mob are unprincipled, opportunist, careerist, scheming, hypocritical, double-dealing, two-faced, pavement politics obsessed inner and outer tossers."

I want to make it clear that not one of these characteristics (nor any other unpleasantries) applies to any of the Councillors* shown in this inaugural group photograph shortly after the May elections:
