Councillor Norfolk Blogger

Despite the various clashes, and very different views on the political situation locally, I wanted to congratulate Nich Starling on his victory in the Taverham North by-election yesterday. It was a solid win and on a decent size swing too - he should be proud of that achievement. The ward, which currently is in Chloe Smith's Norwich North seat, is traditionally a very safe Conservative area and I predict it will return to form very soon ;-)

Well done Nich, enjoy being a Councillor and I hope this position of responsibility doesn't lead to you losing your edge when it comes to blogging.

Edge?

This is an unbelievably naive comment of congratulations by you, Mr Little. You clearly have no idea how the local LibDems campaign and their general negative conduct.There is nothing at all to praise him for.

Clearly being a fellow 'blogger' and teacher is more important to you than loyalty to your own Party. The Greens and Lib Dems must be rubbing their hands with glee at the thought of you as the General Election opponent...........

No, Anon - it's called being civil. I don't need to be lectured on the campaigning of the LDs (more to come on that later) but a win is a win and I'd expect a gracious attitude from my opponents. Unless you have evidence of Cllr Starling's campaign that might make me think again?
