Not being a member of any political party, I pass judgement on what is/has happened. Actions, not words.

I'm not swayed by party loyalty.

If something is wrong I'll say so, regardless of who is responsible.

When I did exactly what I'm doing now, when the Tories were in control of the council, I had much giddy encouragement.

Encouragement from those who'd now like to play the victim card.

Tough.

What's good for the goose, is good for the parson's nose.

I would not expect you to share my opinion Gary. I know you are too much of your own man for that.

I also know that you are a champion of what you see is right.
I have no party loyalties either....but there are some people in politics(local) that I just cannot stomach........and you know who this is.

Politics and politicians use whatever means is at their elbow to advance their cause. You know that and I know that. We cannot blame a Zebra for having stripes. So of course they used this forum for their political arguments...they would have been daft not to. A ready audience without having to go knocking on doors.

It is just that this all seems so.........pointless.....and sad.

After all the biggest let down was GJ.....his total disregard for anything that his constituents thought, felt or said, was swept away for the miserable Kudos that might be gained within the Labour party.
