GJ was a little fish in a small pond up here......and by all accounts did a sterling job for his ward. The little fish when put into the aquarium that is the Palace of Westminster is a totally different scenario....the little fish got swallowed by the dogma of the party......he 'forgot' about the little people back home...those he was down there to represent.
Lesson learned???? You tell me.

I remember one so called big fish in a small pond going down to the big city to become a small fish swimming with sharks in the big sea, the only thing is this guy wasn't blown of course of representing the people who actually put their trust in him to represent them. I here that Ken Hargreaves is on the look out for some one to clean his shoes, believe me Graham Jones has no need to apply, he'd never come close to the standard required
