It is election time. Of course, he is not supporting her re-election. (and where is the "well displayed disgust"?) Please give me an example of a Tory supporting a Lib Dem in election time. And actually isn't that photo an example of his doing that very thing you are saying he should do? ie working with her to try and solve a problem.
I'm suggesting that as a Human, As the Mayor of Dawlish, as a Councillor, that if he worked along side Ms Morris, rather than show a well displayed disgust attitude towards her, maybe the world could be a little bit of a better place. Is it not Lynne, that if I was an independant and my work colleague was a Conservative that we should both sit in different rooms and not talk to each other?
Of course he is not supporting Ms Morris. Why on earth would a Lib Dem support a Tory who is standing for election against, amongst others, another Lib Dem. Are you seriously suggesting that we would we expect a Tory mayor to say that they would be supporting a Lib Dem candidate?

@Lynne , do you have anything real to add?
@DEEDOODLE , i agree with that. out of the lot the tories are the only ones i can vote for, but i'd much rather vote for a team of genuine people that aren't a bunch of unskilled bickering talkers, that can never answer a simple question. Why can't we have a team of Professors, Nurses, Teachers, Army Generals, Business leaders, Community Workers and ordinary people, etc lead the country doing ...
@Paul - i agree with you that any party other than the cons would seem to be an unwise choice for our country, but what saddens me is that we are forced to vote for a party at the expense of voting for the party we personally want. The structure of the voting system and that of Parliament is outdated and not fit for purpose in today's society. I and the rest of the electorate should be able to ...
