You're wrong there Sue he has made it quite clear what he thinks of the townspeople before now.

He didn't give his views on the townsfolk then, maybe that failure explains his later views on us?

Howard you're still doing a better job than the current, nothing personal but even a hypothetic councillor would serve this ward better than the current.
Would be great to have a real councillor who was vocal and active in the ward.

If Sue is correct in her prediction you will certainly have a vocal councillor Reg, scroll down to the comment section of this article.

A voice of any kind is better than no voice I suppose

Graham Morris comes to mind as someone who will get things moving.

Going by your ancestry I thought you might have plumped for Sitting Bull.

People have sounded me out in confidence. It would not be proper to say any more.

Only 10 days to go for someone to put their name forward or it will be another co-opted councillor.

Wrong Howard, 10 days for 10 electors from the ward to request an election or co-option becomes available - even if one is requested and announced there could still be co-option if there are no candidates.

So what happens if 10 request an election but none wish to stand themselves Ray?

Unless there is two or more going for the job there will not be a election.

Today was the cut off for anyone wanting to represent the burghers of St Radigunds, will be interesting to see who has/have stepped forward to help this regal ward.
