Bias as I am, the fact that one party had a councillor and candidate knocking came across much better than their opposition who can only muster a chap "calling on behalf of" their lesser-spotted councillor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-18954753735968396902007-10-30T09:31:00.000+00:002007-10-30T09:31:00.000+00:00Well well well some people seem to have got their ...Well well well some people seem to have got their knickers in a twist over this entry.<BR/> When I read it I was on the side of the lone gunman, no matter what his appearance, against the team of gunslingers. A good description of a cowboy straight out of some american western book. <BR/>However after reading some of the comments I think the lonegun man should definitely be put in boot hill.<BR/>As for the Lib Dems lacking a sense of humour, I'd just like to say that it is a good job the rest of the people of Liverpool have, as the only way to regard their running of the city is like watching a pantomime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-18559530096478498012007-10-29T20:38:00.000+00:002007-10-29T20:38:00.000+00:00Hi PaulaI have met Pat a few times.He did write a ...Hi Paula<BR/><BR/>I have met Pat a few times.<BR/><BR/>He did write a nasty letter to the papers about me which was quite uncalled for. He also did his best to ruin our door-knocking session. <BR/><BR/>I am not sure I have criticised his appearance as such. I was parodying high noon and the moment when the two protaganists meet on the deserted street as the wind blows up the dust.<BR/><BR/>For accuracy, I dont think he is bow-legged, although I didnt check, but all cowboys are, that is a distinctive characteristic. For the purpose of the exercise you may assume that I too am bowlegged and also have holsters on my hips, with my fingers twitching over them, keen to draw my weapons.<BR/><BR/>It did occur to me that to the uninitiated, people might think he was Richard Marbrow so I wanted to make that clear. <BR/><BR/>Do tell me which part of the description you particularly objected to? I am curious. <BR/><BR/>I have long since learnt that LibDems lack a sense of humour, I can only suggest to you and to him that you dont read things that you think might give offence. <BR/><BR/>One final comment, it has been suggested to me in a post (that I refused to allow because it was way over the top, dripping in vitriol) that it was not in fact Pat that wrote the entry above but someone else. In which case, if that is true, I can only say to whichever of your colleagues it was, that by pretending to be him, you have done him a disservice.<BR/><BR/>As nobody else WAS there, just him and us, what else however am I to think but that it was him?Louise Baldockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430662342062143143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-56298526526212358322007-10-29T16:00:00.000+00:002007-10-29T16:00:00.000+00:00Louise, if you actually knew Pat Moloney you would...Louise, if you actually knew Pat Moloney you would realise he hasn't got a malicious bone in his body.<BR/><BR/>He is in fact one of the few genuinely nice people I have met in politics.<BR/><BR/>You should apologise to him for the way you have written about him. Criticism of people related to their appearance, from whichever source it comes, is out of place in grown up politics.Paula Keaveneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814842819611094232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-3563455591721468682007-10-25T18:34:00.000+00:002007-10-25T18:34:00.000+00:00Thank you Pat, I love you too.- and it was the blo...Thank you Pat, I love you too.<BR/><BR/>- and it was the bloody case, you know very well you were just trying to spoil our door-knocking. You cannot expect anyone to believe that you left your house, walked all the way down to Calendar Road, to knock on the same doors as us, and then went all the way back home to get the papers for the next street, and then went home when you saw us continue, just by happy chance.<BR/><BR/>We are not stupid and neither were the voters.<BR/><BR/>At least however, I have now identified the nasty person who has been leaving the messages on the blog.<BR/><BR/>Former Councillor Maloney, I should have known, you are also the only person who has ever written unkindly about me in the newspaper.<BR/><BR/>A bit of an obsession of yours am I?<BR/><BR/>As to my being ugly, methinks you do protest too much, wink!Louise Baldockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430662342062143143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-32302034591343096132007-10-24T10:15:00.000+00:002007-10-24T10:15:00.000+00:00I was there as well Louise, we clearly know that w...I was there as well Louise, we clearly know that wasn't the case. <BR/><BR/>It's a democratic right to be able to knock on doors and ask for people to fill in a survey. Obviously I know your party would like to turn the country into a one party state.. but sadly this will ever be the case.<BR/><BR/>Before you go insulting people, I think you should take a long hard look in the mirror. You really are quite an ugly person, inside and out!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21780743.post-40391332467438914532007-10-22T20:12:00.000+00:002007-10-22T20:12:00.000+00:00If I didnt make it sufficiently clear, it was obvi...If I didnt make it sufficiently clear, it was obvious to us that this failed former councillor had either seen us walking past or had been tipped off as to our presence in the area.<BR/><BR/>He rushed out with some surveys that really he was meant to have delivered already but had been too idle to push through. Choosing only those in the street that we had just entered. <BR/><BR/>He thought he would put us off or send us away by his presence, but when we stood firm and kept on with our excellent progress, he had a brief and half-hearted attempt at putting us off in the next street and then returned home, the rest of the surveys remaining undelivered.<BR/><BR/>Pathetic!Louise Baldockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430662342062143143noreply@blogger.com
