@wondering And if you oppose the Tories then you're automatically a Labour voter or like Red Ed. How simlpistic. Do we live in the mid 1980s? Might look like that soon.. I'm happy Labour are on the knees, same with the Liberal Democrats, UKIP too. I think the Green are pretty inept too. If we had PR the SNP would have about 20% less seats and they wouldn't be 'walking ...
Not really. Not when they'll do a good job of clearly distinguishing thelmselves from good councillors in office.
@wondering The funniest thing in your post, was 'when the nation has decided'. !!!??? Is Maths not your strong point? 1 in 3 or less adults actually voted Tory, or don't you include opposition votes and non voters in your concept of our 'Great' nation. Are they persona non-grata and not true Brits then?
If people in an particular area come up with these names, there's often a reason or reasons for it. Using these nicknmaes is the only way I can discuss their behaviour which I deem not to be befitting of a councillor without breaching rules on this site. I also refuse to expose who I am discussing, so I wouldn't bother speculating. The crux of the matter is fairness and representation over ...

Well put Fred Bassett. Hopefully the election result will be the start of real political change, not the end a false democratic process that people only get a chance to engage in once every five years. 'One nation' what a joke. The first past the post system is the modern day version of Charles I's divine right to rule. It does not and should not have anything to do with democracy as it ...
The Duchess says 'he won't know what hit him'. they're both slippery characters and as bad as each other. How will they work together now both got elected? Both put themselves first. I don't share others views on that assume all our councillors automatically and truly put the community first. Its my view and I stand by it.
The Duchess is furious that a the Worm stood for election on 'her patch'. That will be an interesting contest!
You live on a coastal flood plain and you're going to raise your home above sea level?? seriously though this is good, community working.
Why were you juming up and down? What do you think the Tories will do that is so good in the next 5 years. for the collective good of the country that is, not just for an individual lets say.
