Here is an example of meetings,on Thursday I am at a meeting at 16.30 followed by another at 18.00 and I will be there until 8pm although the meeting will no doubt go on longer,then jump on my bike cycle home get changed into my work stuff,grab a bag and off to my real job at 9pm until 06.30 in the morning.
Someone has asked why we do it,for the money or the buffet,no way,I do it because I care about my ward,my Town and my District.
I had decided not to stand again and was flooded with people asking me not to stand down,not just my political friends in my group,but general people in the street and including some Cllrs on the opposite side.After thinking about it for a long while the reason why I wanted to give it up was the amount of time spent helping people and not having time to do what I would like to do.But then I realised it is not about me,it is about the people I serve,and by changing things around I can still do that,but I can tell you I dont do it for the money,or the buffet!
Now it is up to my selection panel to choose if they want me to stand again!
