Certainly Emma, I would be happy to put my energies into campaigning to improve the community (I'll even resist the obvious dig at my Lib Dem councillors) - where do you feel my efforts would be best placed? I would point out that actually since this website has been set-up the site has not "slagged off" John Leech... I think the stories speak for themselves and it would be unfair to suggest that the news items on the site have been unfair to John. I have tried to get John Leech to contribute to the site, and the offer still remains - I have also made it clear that if John Leech feels he wants something on the site I'm happy (within reason) for it to be there. This site is not a tool for mud slinging, but an open forum which can only be good for local democracy. Feel free to get in touch with your ideas for my campaign to improve the community, you can email me at: thomas at tgraham dot org dot uk
