Harrow voters, locked out of
their public toilets, are also locked out of the political process.
Tonight they will have to wait on the
sidelines while their councillors argue and vote on whether the Conservative
Susan Hall should be allowed to wrest the leadership from Thaya Idaikkadar.
It would be a travesty of
democracy if squabbling Labourites allowed her to snatch the top slot, despite
the public having voted for a Labour majority.
Harrow’s “strong leader”
model of government is ideal for the strident self-publicist Hall who would be
able to appoint Cabinet and make all the key decisions herself.
She has long had her sights
on the leadership and democracy is not going to stand in her way.
