who cares! I think blaming her husband for sending it from her official e-mail address is as stupid as sending it out in the first place, she deserves to be suspended.

Haven't found the "racist email" yet just detail on it.............
The Illegal Immigrants Poem, sent from Wiltshire town councillor Ellenor Bland's e-mail address, jokes in a mock foreign voice about welfare claims.
Mrs Bland told the BBC it was her husband who had forwarded the e-mail, adding: "I'm not a racist."
Liberal Democrat campaigns chairman Edward Davey, who wrote to the Conservatives and Commission for Racial Equality, said: "It is totally unacceptable for elected representatives to be distributing this kind of material. Racism has absolutely no place in British politics and I am asking the CRE to advise on what further action can be taken."
The message sent from Ms Bland's email address included a poem about Pakistani immigrants coming to the UK to claim benefits, along with a cartoon of the white cliffs of Dover with the words 'p*** off - we're full' scrawled across them

Any sense of humour that now causes offence to the stupid is now considered non-politically correct. Don't you know anything Prime-Minister?
