I got home last night from the Blyth Town Council Meeting and quite frankly considering this was a Meeting of the Financial Committee I am worried sick for the future of the people of Blyth...after 16 years as a Councillor I was left wondering...how the hell is our financial meetings being run by what appears to be a group of Amateurs! Another thing of note several minutes into the meeting it was clearly evident that Labour (if you could call them that) have never changed since I last attended a meeting...from the outset it appeared the intentions of a certain Councillor was to attack the UKIP Candidate at any costs...similar to the treatment he and his party tried to give me during my time in office as an Independent! His attitude was clearly evident he has no intention of working with or listening to any opinion that comes from any opposition member whether it is good for the town or the majority of the electorate that he should be trying his very best to represent...this man tried to bully his way through the Council Meeting...he is a disgrace to the Labour Party my father and his parents before him fought for...for many years...and he should have the decency to either change his ways or resign and give Blyth the chance of a brighter future! I will attend more meetings in future and I would like to encourage others to also come along...as I firmly believe people should witness the actions of your elected representatives and see for yourselves the reason which I believe has caused the massive problems that our once thriving town of Blyth suffers from!
