On the subject of dinosaurs ...

I see that Councillor Terry Kelly has hit the mainstream media. The Herald reports:
Wendy Alexander's election agent, Paisley councillor Terry Kelly, was under fire yesterday following an exchange on his website in which he dubbed women "thick".
Councillor Kelly maintains his own personal website which included a recent exchange with a female visitor who asked: "Why are no women allowed to comment here? You've mentioned one being banned, you've called a black woman a liar for talking about racism but then no others have been allowed to comment. Councillor, are you a sexist?"
Councillor Kelly responded: "You have just perfectly demonstrated why, it's because they are thick."
The fact that Councillor Kelly has been Ms Alexander's election agent has prompted criticism from opponents.

Councillor Kelly has long been infamous throughout the Scottish blogosphere. Because of its excesses, I refuse to link to his blog but those who wish to wallow in the mire will have no difficulty in finding it via Google.

If Ms Alexander had any sense, she would long ago have severed any remaining links with Councillor Kelly.
