Some thoughts on the Stiles’ explanation of why they left the Tory party … Gee, I wonder …
They said something like, “Over the last few years, we’ve been unhappy with the party and the leadership…” I think that was Wally’s quote, but it doesn’t matter which one said it. Since this has gone on for years, why not leave before the last election? Obviously because they thought the Tories were going to win the election.
Wally also said that as he went door to door in his campaign many said they want to vote for him, but cannot give a vote for Bernard Lord. Wally then added that the voters were voting for them as opposed to the party. I wonder how many votes Wally (and Joanie) received because they were part of the Lord team?
And finally they went on and on about how they can do more in power than in opposition or as independents … Of course, BUT your team lost the election. It is unethical to jump to the winning team. Maybe ALL MLAs should do that. I your party loses the election, everyone switches to the winning side … that would be GREAT for democracy and our electoral system, wouldn’t it? That was a touch of sarcasm by the way.

Run'em out of town. If they are so confident about their capabilities in the new party (Lyin Liberals) than they should quit now, have a by-election and see if what they think is true. Just a thought. Nice to see new postings, hope you keep it up.
