Just had a nice chat with
Just had a nice chat with Tom, Vice chairman of the SAGE RA group. Tom welcomes all residents from the Bankeyfields estate, as the councillors putting their views tonight will also be YOUR councillors of the future.
Plus local police will be attending so you might learn something about your local community.
And finally if anyone is wondering why tom is waving a wooden spoon, sadly one of Toms RA colleges lost a finger to a dog posting leaflets, so his spoon comes in very handy.
Just to say this is a meeting

The chance for councillor
The chance for councillor candidates to have their say in front of a very large audience last night was missed by the majority and only the two candidates from Lib Dem and Labour showed up.
I don't know how much notice was given, but I imagine quite a bit. In the last local elections, Councillor Wanger got his seat by as little as 100 votes, and with over 100 people attending, it does make you wonder about the missing candidates. Maybe they had a valid excuse, or maybe they're just a paper vote, and then won't be of any use.
The only thing to bare in mind as this councillor will only be in his/her seat for 1 year, as radical new changes to Stoke-on-Trent's voting system are being brought into effect, so if you do end up voting in a dead-beat councillor you'll have chance to correct your vote next summer.
It will also mean the other two Cllrs Ryan and Matloob will have to work all that much harder.
