Local election candidates etc
 
I just wondered if anyone gets a fae to face visit from perspective councilors nowadays.

Last time I saw one must have been about 25 years ago !

We got a leaflet today from the Labour party but no one called and the leaflet centre on things that are national or regional matters not local ones.

In Peel ward area here, Graham Jones’ leaflets were dropped in the area today. The leaflet is full of local issues, specifically initiatives within the constituency.

Not had any other leaflets or canvassing as yet.
