Now pop back up into your highchair.

Good boy.

If you do ring Peter, tell him I said "Hi"

I hope he does ring Peter, otherwise his whines about Peter not posting here will just be nothing more than local labour defending.

Re: Expenses, expenses...

We all know that he reads Accy web avidly but hasn't got the balls to post personally, Area Council staff have been told to monitor Accy Web posts too, supposedly to monitor "local issues"

Let us know when you've had the courage to call him.

I've said many times before on this forum that if I ever have a problem I think he could help me with, then I certainly would telephone him.

I've also said (again many times) that I know he'd do his best to help me, but that doesn't really sit very well with your narrow and blinkered political view, does it?

That I can praise someone's work as a councillor, who just happens to be a Conservative.

Is this an offically sanctioned thread wander by the way, since you're perpetuating it?

Yes there's a lot of information for us ordinary Joes to take in.

I'd hate to say who was winning, certainly from the evidence we've had presented before us on Accy Web.

It's Hobson's choice.
For me the jury's still out.

Both sides are putting up such a mature and compelling case.

I'm sure I'm not the only voting floater who can't see who's presented a better argument in the expenses scandal...so far.

I thought it was against the rules for a phone number to be shown here without consent.
Another moderator once edited my post and PMd me for doing just that.

If I ever have a problem I'd call him, or my other Conservative councillor, as I've already said.

In the meantime I'll resist the urge to telephone them, and waste their valuable time, just to satisfy yet more of petulant demands.

Then why do you demand that he come here when you can ask him questions on the phone?

...and do pass on the message I've posted, that I'll gladly help with his public relations capabilites.

He's more than welcome to call me anytime, and I'll glady share tips about not making comments to the press that so inflame public opinion against him. Coke, hot dogs, guide books, silly cow, etc. etc.

I think he'd do better with a cat giving him Google Page Ranking than yourself. You seem only too happy to go and attack somebody for re-siting a-levels, and even then you got your facts wrong. You should apply to be a Labour councillor.

I don't demand. I just think it would be nice to have some equalty.

The balance seems unfairly tipped in Labour's favour, with only the Tea Boy and Old Father time standing their corner.

I can see your point, there are a lot of Labour lies on here. Don't worry though, I'm here to put you straight.
