Comments on: My questions for Lembit… http://www.theliberati.net/quaequamblog/2008/09/26/my-questions-for-lembit/ "crass, boorish and more a bruiser than blogger" - Alex Wilcock Wed, 07 Jan 2009 20:34:43 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: James Graham http://www.theliberati.net/quaequamblog/2008/09/26/my-questions-for-lembit/#comment-203028 James Graham Fri, 26 Sep 2008 22:19:12 +0000 http://www.theliberati.net/quaequamblog/?p=1725#comment-203028 I disagree. Lembit sat on the same FE as me and thus could see Charles wasn't bringing anything to the table. It was a difficult decision to say to Kennedy that it could no longer go on, arguably one which should have been made much earlier. But with Lembit as President it would have been even harder. While in an ideal world things could no doubt have been done better, I have no doubt that if Kennedy had not been pushed the party would have paid an even bigger price in the long term than it did. And banging on about loyalty just makes the rest of Lembit's parliamentary colleagues look like shits. Some might even call that an act of disloyalty. I disagree.
