In the interests of openness and transparency Perhaps we need to know why the local MP resigned so suddenly - if only to ensure that any new incumbent does not make the same mistakes.
this was sent to me this morning by the Lead of the Footpaths Working Party Councillor Amanda Berrisford: On Thursday 9th May (tomorrow) Nigel Hopkins from SCC rural team is coming to install the remaining two Kissing gates at the Ditch opposite Frank Speeds and the Stile held up with strin g on H Kennerely's land. He has informed me there are no volunteers available and so I am putting a shout out to you all with the details to see if you can help in any way. I am out all day today so do not have the time to call the people on our list. I do not want to put out on the facebook page as we may get too many folk (going forward that would be great) however, we only have a couple of hrs so on this occasion a small productive team would be best. I am Meeting Nige at the H&T at 10.am then we shall enter the field opposite Betley Court Farm and take his truck to the furthest point where then we have to carry the tools a short ...

It would be helpful to have some idea who Mr Jacob Lovatt is. Perhaps his cv could be circulated/published. For example, if this was a replacement for a Wrinehill councillor, does Mr Lovatt live in Wrinehill? And, similarly, who was the other candidate? It was unfortunate that an election did not take place and that yet another co-option was made to this Council. It was noted that only the Council 'voted' for these candidates. This implies that the Parish did not have a say in the selection process. It needs to be noted that the Parish Council is not a Village Committee and it should not be treated and used as a Friendship Group either. Given that £8000 has been reserved for 'an election' should one be called. (and a national election is not due to take place until 2029!) a lack of funding cannot be an issue. It would be also be interesting to know if the Borough Council received any submiss...
