Monday 9th May
Labour won in Brandwood by 1400 votes. I am no longer a councillor so I won't be updating this blog in the future. I have enjoyed being a councillor in Brandwood for 11 years but now have 2 kids so I decided not to seek re-election.

postal votes opening
Wednesday 27th April
I will be attending the opening of the postal votes. This will give us our first signs how we are doing in the local elections and if there is support in the referendum to change the voting system. Vote Conservative, Lesley Sutton, on 5th May and No in the referendum ie keep our current voting system rather than AV.

Missed rubbish collections
Monday 10th January
Can I start by wishing you a happy new year, hope that you have a good one. If you had black bags that haven't been collected over the christmas period they should have been collected by yesterday. I know of several instances where this hasn't happened. If your black bags haven't let me know ASAP and I will organise for it to be removed.

Seasons Greetings
Wednesday 15th December
I have been quiet on the blog over the last week as I have been stuck at home with flu. To make matters worth my partner and two children have been ill aswell, so blog enteries haven't been at the forefront of my mind.
I have started to catch up with emails 311 and casework. I am going to my surgery tonight 6-7 St Bedes Church Hall, Doversley Road.
This will be last entry before christmas, not that the works stops, so can I take this opportunity off wishing you a merry christmas and happy new year.

Full Council
Tuesday 7th December
Most of the day is taken up with Full Council. The main agenda items were the future of post offices, the report of the Cabinet Member for Leisure Sport and Culture and all the mud throwing of question time. A more appropriate expression would be snow ball fighting as someone put on my facebook site.

Dropped Kerbs
Monday 6th December
During the day I have been catching up with case work. I have had a number of emails about parking on grass verges. The Council has started putting in the double kerbs such as at Broad Lane. It is illegal to park on grass verges. It is the police's responsibility to enforce parking on grass verges and the Council's to try and solve the problem.
During the evening, I have had our Group meeting which looks at upcoming decisions. We looked at the budget, council housing and the reduction is staffing levels.
