In prestwich the Liberal Democrat Group having been running a Love Prestwich campaign.

Its aim is to get a little more pride in Prestwich, cut down on Littering and Graffiti, as well as get the Council to clean up more regularly.

So it was with dismay that I noticed on sunday that some yob had pulled down one of the hanging baskets.

It just proves that Love Prestwich has a long way to go yet.

If you look at the picture on the right you may guess I’m only twenty five, However the picture above proves otherwise.

These are my twins David and Helen just about to go off to their graduation party at Manchester Citys Stadium.

How old ??  

Fourteen months of Tory rule

“where’s the school”

Later bob bibby gave his statement on the state of the borough 2007/2008 strangely ( well for him ) that’s what he did without trying to goad the opposition parties.

I also have a new seating position I’m officially a frontbencher with my mentor Cllr Garner to my left, to my right is Cllr Vincent (who I’ve found to be amusing ) behind me is Cllr Ahmed a new appointee also behind me is Cllr Wiseman who is the conservatives parliamentary candidate for Bury south ( vote D’ Albert )

Thursday was full Governors at Prestwich Arts College we were told of a meeting between the Head Geoff Barlow and our local Mp Ivan Lewis in attempt to move on from the strategic review and build some bridges. Well surprise surprise, knock me down with a feather our Local Mp still has some negative perceptions of the school.  

Darlings mini budget is a bribe it will not work!

I recently had a walk around Bury, nothing unusual in that however this was done in ladies high heels. This was done as part of Bury’s domestic violence week for sponorship and to highlight the various issues.

I am pictured here with my Lib dem colleague Cllr Donal O’Hanlon again showing when its an important issue then the Lib Dems are there to fully support. Shame the other political parties didn’t support as much.

This year was started with a fire drill so everyone had to evacuate to the carpark.

The edited highlights are:-

all Lib Dem Cllr love swing music (not)

Cllr Campbell has two left feet

Cllr Davidson can Jive big style

No one can out eat Cllr Wright

No Gibb and Lewis (no coincidence)

Maureen Davidson taught me how to Barn Dance.

For next year we are going to try and get someone a little more high profile and plans are already on going

I often listen to yesterday in parliament on Radio 4 you could tell there was genuine shock when Aliaster Bean announced the extent of the missing data, most minister I believe thought the figure was  1 million how wrong can they be.

So remember it was a junior official that can download all the child benefit data, we didn’t know the actually source of the money, the world is flat and lewis will be our Mp for the next 10 years.
