On a Lighter Note……Update

Over the last couple of years, my friends (yes I have a few) have been growing ‘Sunflowers’ and there is a bit of competition as to who has the tallest/largest….
I think this year – Connie has got the tallest….unless you know different.

Topping at just over 3 metres – fed on a special diet of Tortoise You-Know-What?

By-Election – Whittlesey NorthWest – Polling Card Issue

A great deal of controversy and ‘heat’ being generated about there being No Polling Cards being issued for the forthcoming By-Election for Whittlesey Northwest.

He may be the returning officer, but not even Paul Medd can force Whittlesey town council to issue polling cards for a by election – a decision which has angered Fenland Green Party.
“The Fenland Green Party has raised concerns regarding Whittlesey Town Council’s recent decision to not issue polling cards for the upcoming by-election scheduled for the 28th of September,” said a spokesperson.

Let me make things ‘clear’ – it was NOT as being reported a Whittlesey Town Council decision NOT to issue Polling Cards, I and several other Whittlesey Town Councillors, were NOT consulted in any form what-so-ever, so to say it was a WTC decision is a bit wide of the mark. The decision was made by ‘the executive councillor(s) of WTC/FDC.

I am in receipt of both The Green and Conservative Candidates inital publicity, and note that although both are going to ‘fix’ Whittlesey’s envirnomental issues, neither have been involved as far as I am aware of any groups such as The Saxongate Residents Group, or attended ANY Council meetings so far – I am very enthusiastic that they all have the ‘guts’ to put up for election, however, the ‘Spin’ on their leaflets leaves a little to be desired.
Please keep to the facts and figures…..

To date I have not received any material from Independent Candidate Peter Bibb.
