The British National Party's sole member of the London Assembly will
become a "pariah" as the major parties agree to shun him. As he
launched into a victory speech at City Hall early yesterday, other
politicians left the stage in protest.

No, the other parties have not 'agreed to shun him' as was clearly
stated in the article, they have said that they will not cooperate with
him, no different from not cooperating with any party by another , Cons
with Lab for instance.

As for his 'victory speech'. The Assembly is not the place to make
victory speeches, you do that on election night after the returning
officer has pronounced you the victor and that is no doubt the reason
why everyone else walked out.
