Back home

Home again after a lengthy break, culminating in being one of the few 'away' fans at Perpignan to see the Crusaders put in a fine performance against the Catalan Dragons.

Thanks

My thanks to all those who have been kind enough to contact me over the last couple of days. Your messages have been greatly appreciated and I'm delighted with the optimism we've received from moving up the result table in Montgomeryshire with a big jump in vote percentage.

A major step forward

My thanks to everyone who helped and voted, seeing us gain a 4.5% share of the vote to 11.4% and our best result since 1999. I'm proud to say we were just 30 votes short of our best result ever. Bearing in mind that this result came during another massive swing from LibDem to Tory, then I think it is not insignificant and hopefully an indication for the future.

A European Campaign?

I read this story and was amazed to see the exact same problems emerging in Germany as we are facing here in Montgomeryshire. Giant pylons cutting through miles of beautiful countryside. Concerned locals don't want their homes devalued.

What I would genuinely propose and very quickly, is that the Montgomeryshire campaign contact their counterparts in the town of Schalkau and discuss the issues and tactics that they are employing and hey, why not work together in their respective campaigns?

Support from across Wales is great, but support from across Europe? Now that would be something to get rattling them at Scottish Power & National Grid!

Newtown History Day

More glorious weather today for Newtown's first History Day, and it was fun to join my 3 opponents in the stocks to be pelted by very wet and very cold sponges. Some direct hits have left me with a rather sore nose, but it was all worth it to raise some extra money for the Mayor's chosen charities.
