Reactions to story from JP Floru : My Telegraph
Brian Paddick, the Liberal Democrats, and the extreme left

Even I was flabbergasted when I heard LibDem mayoral candidate Brian Paddick admit on BBC London that he gave his second preference vote to Left List. I mean, it's well known that when and where it suits them LibDems are to the left of the Labour Party. But I didn't realise they went to such extremes! New LibDem logo? Left List was the name under which the Respect Party fought the London elections. George Galloway has now officially cut loose from the party he founded and has set up his own grouplet. It all sounds terribly like my university days, when the Trotskists, the Maoists and the Leninists all tried to win favour with a few dozen extreme left minded students.
