It does sound a bit like a whinge but none of us are desperately scrabbing to get our photos in there simply because we're in control. It certainly wasn't for want of trying that we didn't always manage to get our counterpoints across or our involvements with council projects and time will tell if this trend continues.

To be honest, as I've said before people will soon get equally sick of Miles Parkinson's Good News as they have of Cllr Britcliffe's scribblings and I welcome the new initiative to have the Leader's Column written in rotation by Cabinet members in order to give a broader picture of what is being worked on.

However, after 12 years of pure Britcliffe I think the paper may further unsettle its readers by keeping his singular viewpoint going.
