Martin and I met today for an exchange of idea’s and his views and his vision for the future of Whittlesey & Fenland Council(s), we agreed to disagree on a number of points which is usual for two people from slightly differing angles.

I’ve also had conversations with Peter Bibb, who is also planning to stand at the same election. Peter stood recently at the St Andrews By-Election and took a very credible 40% of the votes. Peter is also passionate about the future of Whittlesey and its way forward.
Below Peters election leaflet.

I understand Mr Owen Barrett is planning to stand on behalf of the Conservative Party.

Mr Robert Windle gave a presentation on Fenland Youth Radio, and how well established the station is, with listeners from around the world.

Ex Coucillor David Mason gave a presentation on Citizens Advice Bureaux within the Rural Cambs area, he highlighted the benifits some had received last year (£33,000)
that residents were unaware they were entitled to.

Earlier this evening Kay Mayor a very long term Councillor at Whittlesey Town and Fenland District Councils, has decided to resign her role, for personal reasons.
Kay has been my fellow Councillor here in Whittlesey South since last May, and we have worked very well together as a ‘team’ for the ward as a whole.

I am sorry to see her go at this time but fully understand the circumstances.
