Having said that I must also say that I also agree with everyone on here who has invited all Conservative councillors to participate on this forum.It would be good to hear their side from time to time. |
As well as being apolitical, I'm non-colourist too, hence the poll.
Peter Britcliffe is my councillor as well, and on more than one occasion I've used Accy Web to note the rare occasion were I think he's done something worthwhile.
Accy Web is open to all to air their views, the fact that Greg and Graham do, and no Conservative councillor has posted here, speaks volumes about their lack of conviction to defend their policies.
