I was not around when the Broadfield Mosque held its elections at the weekend, but from what I have heard it was quite lively. I had heard that it was being hotly contested and that there was a ‘faction’ within it which was trying to get into power, but did not go into their internal politics too deeply.
Apparently on the day there was one group who had tried to lock themselves in the mosque, or lock the others out, or something, so it all got quite exciting.
Having spent election days knocking on doors less than 100 metres from a polling station to be told by the residents they just couldn’t be bothered to vote, there is a part of me that wishes the rest of Broadfield could get as excited by voting when it comes round to council elections. I’m not saying I want Labour & Tory supporters getting physical with other or anything, but to have just a fraction of the passion and interest would be refreshing.
