Some Observations

(Sing along with the Pogues) *

The New Labour Party knows that a General Election anytime soon would lead to a crushing defeat.

Things are going well for me in these County Council elections.

We are now up and Running in Kingsley Ward for the County Council elections on June 4th.

I have recently contemplated taking part in the forthcoming County Council Elections, standing against Richard Church in the Kingsley Ward. I have a number of reasons for doing this, both personal and on behalf of Northampton Market and the People of Northampton.

I must say I'm very sad and angry and feel 'Sick as a Parrot' that after all our efforts, and all the 11,000 signatures from the good people of Northampton, that the Lib-Dems have taken no notice at all, and have gone ahead with their decision to 'Improve' the Market Square by reducing the size of the market. This will leave a huge area of waste land most days of the month, except when the occasional Lib-Dem event is on, like Mueller Rice.

Traders at Northampton Market will be marching to present their 'Save the Market' petition of more than 11,000 signatures to Councillor Richard Church at the Guildhall Northampton, at 11.30 am, Wednesday 4th March.

Once again we are assured by Richard Church, writing at great length in the Chronicle & Echo (Viewpoint 19/02/09), that all is for the best in his blue sky dreams for the future of the market.

Nationally:
Survival of the Fittest - or the Fattest?

I must say I never imagined there would be a time when Northampton didn't have a Woolies store.

Judging from local newspaper reports and local media coverage, the Lib-Dems have never been under such fire as at the present time.

I would like to keep the general public up to date with current goings on regarding the proposed new market layout, because Northampton Borough Council has rejected the layout plan favoured by the traders.
