[Margaret Pilkington]

I think the issue of local politics is overshadowed by National politics.......and the two are(in my opinion, not that that counts for much) totally different.
What have the recent failings of the Labour party got to do with Graham Jones siutability as a local Labour Leader?

It seems his suitability hinges on the believability of figures which the local labour group have put in some of their literature.
I don't believe a word that comes out of a politicians mouth......I wait for actions....to me, these are how politicians should be judged.
The backlash against Labour locally has a lot do do with the policies of the Labour party in a national sense.
If you think that the current council have done a good job of looking after local issues.....have alook around the town centre and then decide.
We have a plethora of empty shops......a refurbishment of Broadway that cost God knows how much......and it is already looking tired and shabby after quite a short period of time.
Actions...thats what impresses me...and I have to say I'm not impressed.
