Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Nice bit of spinning there Mr Smith. Trying to pretend it wasnt your Labour Council executive member Cllr Mark Bradshaw who authorised the "preferred" route of the cyclepath. The minutes of the meetings show it. It's really a bit pathetic that you are desperately trying to pretend it was all someone else's fault now.
Brenda Hugill only seems to remember she's a Bristol City councillor whenever there's a photo opportunity and the chance of a picture and quote in the media. At other times her silence as a locally elected representative is deafening.
I will not forget the tens of thousands killed and displaced and the billions spent on the war in Iraq. Never trust labour again.
do you remember what life was like the last time the tories were in power?
be careful what you wish for when booting out labour.
there is not a party out there which will do what needs to be done the way it needs doing.
we have either to create a better alternative, or to be prepared for more shit whoever gets voted in.
So the Labour has come out on the side of the people of Easton till the day of the vote then they will vote the way they are told.
At the sametime we are having all the funding that as help to make Easton better removed, and there is not one word being said about this by anyone.
So you can fight for something that will not be funded over the cost which is what BCC wishes you to do, or you can open your eyes and fight to save the funding need to keep things going in Easton.
Well, surprise surprise, it looks like "Jimbristol" from Easton was exactly right. Labour councillors have been milking the positive publicity for all it's worth with their photo opportunities on the path over the last month, but on the night, last night, they did what they were told and totally destroyed the motion to block the buses using the path. Why does anyone ever trust Labour over anything?
