NAUGHTY NAUGHTY

North street really do believe in rubbing the noses of the voters right in it don't they.

Have you seen the latest leaflet they are putting out for the by election in Goresbrook ward? by the way North street you really should train your delivery boys better, they wasted an awful lot of your money putting 100s of leaflets out in River ward.

Anyway, the headline Back Lollipop Louise, and there she is in her council uniform holding the tools of her trade (not gone down too well with the Electoral Commission that one we hear). 71 years old, makes what M Hodge was saying on the doorstep out to be a lie, when she was telling voters she was putting in new, younger and more dynamic councillors.

Lollipop! more like an empty sherbet lemon that one, and North street have proved it themselves by saying that she did not realise the rules on standing as a councillor. Well if she and the agent could not read and understand the easy to read fact sheet sent to all candidates and Agents how on earth is she going to read and understand complex council reports?

And as for the deliberate lie that the rules had been changed come on give it a break those rules have been in place for some 20 years. Louise was devastated that she made a mistake, nope devastated she got caught. Still we are pretty sure she will explain all that to the judge.

We will post more on the alleged claims of success by Letchford and Clee later.

Oh just one other minor point, how can an employee of the MP who is paid by the tax payer act as the Agent in this by election, why haven't the Local Government committee followed their own party rules and met to select the Local Government committee election Agent?

  1. I live in river ward and I got one of these leaflets, what a waste of money.

    But looking at the claims they are making for the work they reckon they have done, its a joke, because many of us know that Warren had sorted most of this out before the election.

    And as for opening up the gates in goresbrook park, do the idiots not know that they were being locked overnight to prevent the vandalism that was done before? well on their own heads be it, because if it gets vandalised again it will not be replaced this time as there is no money left.

  2. Why are you worried about the local labour party wasting money by delivering leaflets in the wrong ward?

    Its not like you're members anymore.

  3. They didn't say they opened up the gates in Goresbrook park - there aren't any gates in Goresbrook park, they got the children's play area, which had been closed due to repeated incidents of vandalism re-opened after it was refurbished.

    If your attitude is to just throw in the towel because the actions of a small minority of people mean that public ammenities have to be closed once in a while then please sod off, some of us actually care about our local community.

  6. Whats the latest in Gorsebrook surely the BNP won't win and who would want someone picked by Labour who has already been disqualified?

    Can an independent win?

  7. Anyone can win this one, although I hear the BNP are putting the work in on this, canvassing every door in the ward, and picking up the promises if their website is anything to go by.

    Its said that a large number of the newly elected Brking members are not being so helpful.
