Some Parties do 'ave 'em

The BBC report here that Camden's Liberal Democrat Mayor, Cllr Ansari, has been arrested over allegations of fraud. The Camden New Journal has a report here. The Liberal Democrats really don't seem to be very good at vetting their candidates. You can read about their record in Camden on Theo Blackwell's site. In Brent, they had Cllr Vijay Shah elected for Wembley Central, and (unlike Cllr Ansari) actually convicted of fraud. They had Cllr Pawan Gupta in Dudden Hill, who turned out not to be legally qualified to stand. They almost had the late Rocky Fernandez as a candidate in Queens Park, even though he had previously been convicted of defrauding Brent Council.

They do pick 'em , don't they?
