WHEN it comes to party politics, it is important to realise that each and every party has good, hardworking and decent members.

It is wrong to generalise and prejudicially stereotype people according to which political parties they may belong to.

While it is fair game to point out the amusing foibles of political leaders, it is not fair to criticise the footsoldiers of these parties.

Local politicians and councillors of all political persuasions do a great job and I wish them all well in the coming elections.
