Alec & Doris on Con-Lib coalition

Cornwall Council leader Alec Robertson:

"I would be very happy to see us go forward together to work constructively for the good of one and all. There is a lot of talent within the Liberal Democrat group...."

Opposition leader councillor Doris Ansari, asked if she would recommend that her group come out of opposition:

"I can't give you that answer because I have to speak to my group. We have not been offered anything. I cannot make any promises on the air, or anywhere else, without discussing it with my group. I wouldn't rule it in or out."

Doris said the next meeting of the Liberal Democrat group on Cornwall Council would be "very soon."
