"The chosen candidate with two cohorts then decides who stands for the council!!
Absolute, unadulterated nonsense."
David, I am sure over the phone this morning you confirmed that during the first tranche of the selection process, four or five months ago, it was you and two others on the interview panel.
The second tranche, just over a month ago, and it was you and two others.
You also said nothing to suggest it will be any different for the final part of the process.
Correct me if I'm wrong, although of course I have taken notes to back it up, but I don't really see how what Howard wrote was "absolute nonsense" bearing in mind those facts?

You've asked that question before and I have answered it so this time I will type it more slowly this time.
Facebook gives my age as 27(twenty seven) and says that i worked for the Dover Mercury and the East Kent Mercury.
The photo on my profile makes it clear that I am a few months older than that, only a simpleton would believe the details on my profile. Try as I might I cannot change it.

Post 41 I have already done that thank you.When I was chairman it was the members that run the branch and the committee and when they voted not to take part in local Election .I said OK but I will put my own name up which I done .They could of got rid of me then because I said it at the AGM But I was still asked to carry on as chairman. And just to add if you now only have 150 members, we had well over 200 then, so membership is falling by the look of things.And they were paid up to.

Very true Peter, I guess it is my fault as I did say we needed both sides of the story.
A great shame that this unfortunate saga could not be kept in-house but I have noticed that disgruntled UKIP members seem to like to run their chosen party down in public.

Jamie, you and I both know that to say:

Is absolute misrepresentation. This is the wiki definition of cohort:
1. an ancient Roman military unit, comprising six centuries, equal to one tenth of a legion.
2. a group of people with a shared characteristic.
See what I mean?

Pretty sure he was referring to cohorts as individuals. It often means supporter or companion.

Even if he was he's still wrong as I fully explained to you earlier.
Can't be a lot going on in Dover if this rehashed and fabricated nonsense is being discussed.

A former Dover businessperson now resident on the Costa Del Sol known for his razor sharp wit.
Going off at a tangent I encountered his near name sake Terry Cleaver of Dover community radio in the library earlier.
