20:3011401getting back to paul's post here, i think he is right that traditional allegiances are not as strong in this generation.
the core(guaranteed) vote for each of the two main parties gets smaller, hence at election time the two main parties sound much the same in their rhetoric, in an attempt to woo the growing number of undecideds.
keith makes a good point about councillors getting elected, then never being seen or heard of again.

23:0011461see that you are in the festive mood roger, should you see a ms revell could you advise her that we eagerly await some
public showing from her.
here for example, letters page of the 2 local papers, attendance at various forums, there are many ways of showing an interest in the people that one represents
