    I served my local community (Maxton, Elmsvale and Priory) as well as I could over 12 years Reginald, it didn't matter whether they voted for me or not - I never inquired, nor should I have.
    As far as I remember, there was only one problem I wasn't able to resolve satisfactorily for the person who raised it with me and there must have been hundreds of people I have helped, with all sorts of problems.

    At any of the committees I served on, I didn't play party politics, only voted that way at full Council meetings and only if I agreed with whatever the point was. There isn't a "whip" system at DDC, not for the Conservatives and I can honestly say I have never been told how to vote.

    I agree with you that many miners and their families won't vote Conservative and yet there has been more money gained for Coal-field Communities - through a (DDC) Conservative, than any Labour Councillor.
