New Blog Post "All In This Together"
Here’s the thing. Council’s are supposed to support the whole area over which their jurisdiction extends. Consequently, if you are a County Councillor, as I am, then you have two jobs: be the voice and representative for the people in your division and also try to offer good input and sensible consideration for the county as a whole.

The same is true for Fenland District Council, of course. We now have a situation where it would appear the only option for our local college is to forget its plans to move to March and, instead, to remain in Wisbech – using its energy and funds to reconstruct and repair the original site and make it work.
