It’s serious work being a councillor
Cllrs David Morrish and Chris Gale have been surveying the state of the pavements in Heavitree’s (Exeter) shopping centre.
A spate of pedestrian accidents have resulted in a number of older residents losing confidence to go out.
Chris Gale expressed his concern that the LibDems have cut the county maintenance budget for pavement repairs while at the same time increasing their own “responsibility allowances”.
“We have had good press coverage and will hopefully shame the county councillors into action on behalf of pedestrians and not themselves” added David Morrish.
Community support for candidate
Local election candidate Ann Hines (centre) and her supporters in West Derby, Liverpool.
Ann left the LibDems just before the May election and local Liberals came out to support her move.
Unfortunately she was not successful but polled a very respectable 731 votes (see our election results page) after a short campaign. A firm basis here for next year's elections.
