I suppose your Conservative views / support vanished along with your membership card?

Hmmmm, I wonder if all those anons would be calling for someone not to lose their jobs if they were a member of another legal political party? Say, the BNP?

It seems fine to be partisan, despite the rules, but depending on which party you belong to.

Don't you just love how socialists always make themselves a victim and champion of free speech and rights, as long as they agree with it?

Gee the blog has gone naughty nasty people obviously interferred with the right to free speach who did this we must be told (;-0)

Shouldn't she be fired for poor dress sense?

Anonymous. I can't agree.

You said: If you are honestly concerned that she has conflicts of interest, why not complain to the labour party? Let them ask her whether she wishes to continue.

That way you leave her employment out of it.

You overlook the fact that the concern is not with her membership of the Labour party but how her election to an extremely important and high profile role within the Labour Party might impact on her role as a civil servant.

It obviously has no meaning or relevance for the Labour Party, but it does have meaning and relevance for her employer, DEFRA/the Civil Service.

In her position, her very well paid position, she cannot serve two masters.

I agree with Tory Bear.

TB - normally like your stuff but this does seem a bit excessive.

It appears that your emotion has the better of you on this one!

Ok. Three posts in one day. What exactly are you trying to achieve?

To me this looks like a campaign with the aim to get someone you don't even know fired.

I am with TB on this one. There are rules for a reason, and people need to stick to them - unless there is a very good reason why not. If I have a contract that says the work needs to be delivered by 10 December then I deliver by 10 December.

And the good lady does not need to lose her job, she could simply stand down as chair(man) of London Young Labour. Easy.

i'm not. i just think it's ridiculous she can be chairman of young labour at the same time..not calling for her to be fired from DEFRA.

TB, why are you hell bent on seeing someone lose their job in the current economic situation? It seems petty, nasty and cruel.
