It seems we have no elections here,they must only have one councillor in each ward so no vote for another 2 years,I talked to Mick on the phone and we are of the opinion its time for Grey Power to come to the fore,I am seriously considering contesting the next local election on that platform.
I propose to try to be elected to represent the ordinary folk who are totally neglected,high fuel prices are serious stuff in an area of restricted public transport,and the main sufferers are the elderly and less well off, who lack representation,the present government have no interest in the people who elected them,and the other two parties will do no better,whats needed is political power used in the interests of ordinary folk,and there are enough votes in the elderly community to elect such candidates,plans are afoot.
This is not to deny younger voters their rights,ALL will be represented.

You will need some campaign contributions. Then when you get elected, you will owe favors right left and center and therefore become corrupt.
Or you can tell them you don't want their contributions, but then you won't get enough exposure to get voted in.
Mmmm what should you do?
MIKE MIKE MIKE,,,It doesn't work like that here in local elections,very little expenditure needed and I think the novelty of a Grey candidate would ensure publicity on local TV,after that its a leaflt in every door,a job I have done myself on a larger stage in my youth,So no favours required old chap.
