I don't hate Leech by the way. I hate the fact that he used the Christie Hoax to play on the fears of cancers sufferers and to manipulate the concerns of ordinary voters who believed his lies becasue they presumably didn't think that anyone would stoop so low as to imply that a world famous cancer facility was going to close when they knew that it wasn't simply to gain short term political advantage. You Lib Dems can avoid, hide, muddy, confuse, ignore ..do whatever you like but you can't run away from the consequence of your fella being so low as to do what he did. You should be ashamed, he should be ashamed and he should apologise.
And if you think it was a one off ask him if Southern Cemetery was ever really in danger of closing or whether he was just cynically using the fears of bereaved families. He is a disgrace and that is why they are plotting behind is back. If you don't believe me look at what happened when the Lib Dems walked out of the Council Chamber. He sat there on his own, totally isoltaed. He committed politcal suicide that day and some of his so-called Lib dem colleagues in manchester vowed to oust him. I'm sure there are others who are better informed than me but if I was John leech would keep my eye on Cllr Mark Ramsbottom.
