The history of the formation of the independents is well worth a read at:- http://www.iloi.org/scripts/iloi_s/articledetails.idc?article_ID=121
This article contains bias and cannot purport to be impartial. In the last few paragraphs, repeated reference to "we" and "us" detracts from the neutrality that an article on such a sensitive issue demands.
Thank you.
