If you ask the residents of the borough who the leader of the Labour group on the council was, I bet 95% wouldn't know the correct answer.
Miles Parkinson is so low profile he doesn't feature on most peoples' radar.
True, actions speak louder than words.
Though that doesn't help at the ballot box, if people don't know what actions you've done.
King Kenny has probably a higher public profile than Cllr. Parkinson.
You might want to offer him a few tips.

I have often said G. that if you stood outside the Golden Cross on a Saturday morning and stopped 100 people, no matter which ward they live in and ask them who there councillor is, 99% would say Peter Britcliffe. In the days when I was involved we used to get phone calls from every part of Hyndburn, it was very hard telling some one from Rishton that Peter wasn't their councillor, I'm sure that doesn't happen today
