rebbonk	Posted: Mon Apr 26, 2021 7:09 pm It's a dirty business, Lex. Locally we've had a facebook discussion with our ward councillors. The sitting councillor (current leader of the council) hasn't bothered to show his face; another couple haven't bothered, or attended half heartedly. I usually grill those wanting my vote, but I've not bothered this time; the obvious disdain they hold the electorate in has been quite clear to anyone that has bothered to look. My votes went in the post last Friday, I did 'spoil' one paper. It's a dirty business, Lex. Locally we've had a facebook discussion with our ward councillors.
