I may just put myself up again at next elections, and actually bother to canvas this time, as I'm always being asked by people to stand.
I think when you speak your mind these days you are too quickly criticised for it, and these days its more likely to be abrasive rather than questioning.
The less tolerant people are, and we are becoming less tolerant , the more politicians feel its best to sit on the fence or pass the buck.

Up at again at the next elections. Is this in Hyndburn?
