Euro election voting today

[Margaret Pilkington]

Sherry he has moveable values, so you can bet your life he will not see anything at all wrong in it.
I just hope the people who voted for him remember this in the future.
He has misrepresented himself, bamboozled the electorate and is not fit to be on any council.

The definition i would give it is hes a SNAKE of the highest order, which was already demonstrated when he became Mayor, The man is is just a user,to suit his cause, Hope he comes on again n reads this.

My virus protector will not let me view the Accy Observer site......it cites the collection of data ,viruses and malware for the reason.
News for East Lancashire: Blackburn, Burnley, Darwen, Hyndburn, Pendle, Ribble Valley, Rossendale
It will allow me to look at the Telegraph site so I have put a link to follow.

Cheers jen. the interesting thing to me,is how UKIP have done in most seats, if that replicates it could just be the kick up the arse required.

Surely Mr Pritchard's actions can't be acceptable? If you went doorstepping and secured votes as a UKIP candidate and then get elected surely you must be a UKIP councillor? It's not the first time this goon has pulled a stunt like this but I can't believe he can get away with this one.
I have heard him speak in public, it's laughable and embarrassingly bad. I really find it staggering that so many gullible people voted for him. Is he now just going to vote with whoever he fancies regardless?

I wonder what definition he gives to that action?

he shoudl be forced to step down he has in my opinion defrauded teh electorate

mind you if you had to step down for doing the opposite of what you say you will do then graham jones would be out fo a job as well

i think pritchard has the new record it took jones a couple of weeks to stab those who voted for him in the back it took pritchard less than 24 hours lol

and folk wonder why the majority think they are all the same

[Margaret Pilkington]

It just shows that he is not to be trusted......simple as.
He just wants to achieve his political ambition at any cost and it doesn't matter what values he tramples on.
Unreliable, untrustworthy, self serving.....just about right for a politician.(and a snake)

[Eric]

Any info on the voter turnout?

[Margaret Pilkington]

Not that I have seen so far. It will be in the papers tomorrow I guess.

Not really .

He just wants to be an Independent Councillor and not be bossed around by UKIP .

[Margaret Pilkington]

If that is what he wanted then that is what he should have stood as...not UKIP.
It was presumed that UKIP would make inroads in this election and he used this to further his ends.......and that might be legal but it certainly isn't cricket.
It shows him in his true colours.

He will stand under any banner just as long as it gives him success....and that success is for himself, not for his constituents. Shame on the man!

So why didn't he stand as an Independent?
