John Cummins Says Voters Should “Think Twice” About Supporting the NDP – Even Though He Voted for Them
Vancouver - Today in the Vancouver Province John Cummins engaged in the kind of double-talk that characterizes his approach to politics.
Commenting on the NDPs nomination policy on diversity Cummins said, "Is this how the NDP would run a government? Hiring people based on their group affiliations, rather than their qualifications for the job? Voters should think twice about that."
BC Liberal Party President Sharon White said, "Cummins says voters should "think twice" about voting for the NDP, even though that's exactly what he did in 2009." White noted that the NDP diversity policy was in place in 2009 and that Cummins even had the choice of voting for a BC Conservative candidate nominated in Delta North, Cummins' riding.
"Cummins has shown again that he lacks the principles voters expect in their political leaders — he claims to be a conservative, yet he voted for a socialist party. Two years later he is attacking an NDP policy that was in place when he voted for them."
