Flintshire Politics in The Chronicle - The New Administration


Click image to read

An interesting letter from Gareth Williams in The Chronicle. I think they should pay Gareth for a weekly column.

Quotes: Cllr Aaron Shotton " Words cannot express how proud I am to have been bestowed the great honour of representing my county as leader of this council.

Cllr Tony Sharps " We are Independents, not members of the Labour Party . We are free to vote at all times. This was a sensible business arrangement in the interest of the people we represent.

Further positions. Big Bernie Attridge is Deputy Leader. Cllr Ann Minshull is Chairman and Cllr Carolyn Thomas is Vice Chairman.

Can't see a position for Cllr Tony Sharps.......

Will put links on when Chronicle website is updated.

    Good Afternoon Colin,
    Thanks for posting this letter. I missed it as I just read The Chronicle online.
    Gareth Williams is a good man, he raises some very good points. I did like the comment about dog poo on the pram wheels very apt!
    Not sure how a Labour led Council will pan out but I thought that Cllr. Sharps was first in the queue at speed, I am sure he will be looking for some position with a little authority attached.It's all about power in the end.
    Thank God we have Dave Mackie over here, he is a good man.
    Hope you are keeping well and thanks for keeping us informed.

    Kind regards,
    Ann

  3. Or here's an alternative Gareth. You could do a column for Penyffordd District. Or the real alternative, your own blog about Flintshire politics. Takes ten minutes to set up and 20 minutes to learn the basics.
