P J Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Ann Raymond, lives over the Chester Road side And some Councillor from Appleton represents Stretton I believe Though from what I hear he does quite a good job. If the Lib Dems have a prospective Councillor in Bewsey going spare its no surprise,they did after all parachute in their "golden girl" from the Midlands.

Peter T Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Ann Raymond, lives over the Chester Road side Thought or maybe hoping it was one of our two who had seen that the writing was on the wall, but then realised they were too busy looking after the areas in which they live.(allegedly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Settle Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Pity it isn't any of the Lib/Dems who live near me. From a conversation I had with one Lib/Dem Parish Councillor Parachutees they do tell interesting tales about their colleagues who are now Lib/Dem Borough Councillors. I wonder if there will be any Lib/Dem revelations emerging from the forthcoming elections by the parachutees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Settle Posted December 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Well maybe they are changing their tune after VOTING against supporting a labour motion to support Woolston High School. They are now allocating ?3,000 in the Parish Budget for 2009/10 to the remaining High School in the area. Hopefully other schools will be given the same treatment in the New Year. I note that there is also a couple of grand allocated for other projects just hope that they are divulging their respective interests. Maybe the Lib/Dems feel a tinge of remorse and are trying to make amends with the local community? Stranger things have happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Settle Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Are there any other candidates in the Penketh Parish election and are they local. I hope so because I go painting there on a Wednesday evening and I don't want the Lib/Dems to close the venue down as part of their cut back programme. Following last nights appology hopefully the election process will be a smooth one and not as chaotic as last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 It's interesting to read in the latest Parish minutes how the Lib/Dem Parish budgets for next year are being subtley geared to funding what could be seen as traditional Borough Council responsibilities. A case in question is Fearnhead where thousands of pounds are being diverted to support education and other local organisations. This is a u-turn which goes against their Lib/Dem leaders closure policy in neigbouring Woolston. Maybe the worm has turned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter T Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Didn't these shortfalls start under the watch of Labour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted December 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 What shortfalls Pete, there were NONE under previous Parish Councils, which as you say had a majority of Labour Councillors. Are you saying that the Lib/Dem predominantly run Parish Council is heading for a shortfall? What proof have you got as I would be very interested in hearing about it?
