In Ring doorbell footage shared exclusively with The National, Malik said he had wanted Tory candidate Douglas Lumsden to win against Stephen Flynn .The Labour candidate said: “When Douglas was candidate, Douglas Lumsden, in 2019 we did not bother, Labour did not bother at all, we were hoping that Douglas would make it.In 2019, Labour’s candidate was Shona Simpson, who has since made a number of failed attempts to become a councillor in the city.
Malik’s comments cast further doubt on Labour’s approach to the 2019 General Election, where the party under the leadership ofKeir Starmer has struggled to answer questions about how he fought the campaign. He has disowned his predecessor and kicked him out of the Labour Party.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse. So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues. The ability to comment on our stories is a privilege, not a right, however, and that privilege may be withdrawn if it is abused or misused.
