Congratulations to Gill.
As the other Councillor for Whittlesey South I will work as a team with Gill for the residents of the ward – I believe he has a lot of potential.

Congratulations also to Peter, who has worked very hard to this result, again, team work within a ward is essential to the electorate.

Please Use YOUR Vote

There maybe many failings within our country, but the one aspect of our freedom is democracy – you decide who will govern – whether it be at a local level or national level.

For those 50+% who do not vote for various reasons – one being apathy – my vote won’t make any difference – you are wrong – every vote sends a message to the candidate(s),
good, bad or indifferent.

My stance remains, vote for the person not the party, especially at a local election.

By early Friday morning we will know what the Country is destined for the next few years.

Today could be judgement day…. Tomorrow could be the beginning of the apopalypse…..

Council disappointment at Wisbech incinerator judicial review decision

Fenland District Council is extremely disappointed with the decision to refuse our application for judicial review on the Medworth Energy from Waste development.

Given the judge’s recognition that there were several deficiencies in the Secretary of State’s decision to approve the incinerator, the Council was clearly justified in pursuing an application for judicial review.

The Council is now giving careful thought to the judge’s reasons for the refusal and is taking further expert legal advice as to potential next steps and looking at all available options.

ENDS
Kind regards
Communications Team

Crimes Are NOT Being Reported

I and many others know the difficulty in reporting crime, it is not access – it is the amount of time it takes to report something fairly simple.

Not the Police fault – they have to comply with a national system.
Today I attended a meeting at which our Neighbourhood Police were present, they informed me that they had only one report of ASB (anti-social-behaviour) in the past month.
We know that the Police respond on reports – so I am asking – however arduous it maybe –
Please report incidents either via Fenland District Council Click Here
or
Police Website Click Here

I have put these links previously – but here they are again @ FDC Website.
Report an issue that is affecting you.
