The funny Conservative has been campaigning hard.
The Labour and Liberal Democrat candidates appear to have forgotten Rutland not even a leaflet.
I googled both of them and found they are both Leicestershire Councillors so no surprise it appears they forgot Rutland.

Paul Beech, Independent, Oakham North West Ward, Rutland County Council, Elections
Paul Beech, Independent, Oakham North West Ward, Rutland County Council, Elections
It has been confirmed this week Paul Beech has not only been bullying me he has also been bullying Oakham Town Mayor Sharon Spencer.
After this week pointless Annual Town Council meeting, I had a long chat with Councillor Sharon Spencer who said She know longer communicates with him, because "he had often been very rude and nasty to her"
It is about time more people spoke out and named all the local Tory bullies.
It is clear Mr Beech is not a true independent, record shows he and his wife signed Conservative Councillor Peter Jones papers at the last election.
Mr Beech has taken recently taken to signing his e-mails Beechy. I believe this also clearly shows there is something very wrong with his behaviour.
So I suggest voters think very hard before voting for him.

Rutland Times and Rutland Mercury Refusing to Publish Candidates Election Statements
Rutland Times and Rutland Mercury are refusing to Publish Candidates Election Statements.
Voters in Rutland don't need to buy the Rutland Times or the Rutland Mercury to find about your election candidates. Both publications will not be publishing candidates statements or any election stories according to Kerry from the Rutland Times.
I like the electors will find this very disappointing.

Martin Brookes Independent Candidate for Greetham Ward Rutland County Council
Martin Brookes Independent Candidate for Greetham Ward Rutland County Council elections
I arrived home to find amongst my pile of junk mail, which include Raffle Tickets to Save a Devon Donkey,
a leaflet from the Rutland Conservative Team.
I read it with interest although they will not be getting my vote on May 5th.
Your Conservative Team-always putting Rutland First
What does that mean? most of the Conservatives I have met don't do that. Their Leader Roger Begy has recently come under attack from his own members. Conservative Mark Wells publicly said he would rather work for Robert Magube than Roger Begy, It may not been a very wise choice for a comparison but I think it sums up a very sorry state of affairs Rutland County Council finds its self in at the moment.
And Now Is Time For Change
Gene Plews says he and Jonathan Munton have pledged to be hands on sleeves rolled up and on your side!
So where has Gene Plews been for the last four years? I have seen him in my ward once trying to sort out parking issues in our area, something I had dealt with as a town councillor.
0% Council Tax Increase.
Although still the highest in England
When will this team wake up? these days of the internet, we can all see this has nothing to do with any work carried out by their team it is just based on a Council Tax Freeze Grant from central government, to be paid over the next four years as an incentive not to increase the tax. Of course what this team was blind too, before they agreed to this freeze, was the government never factored in the parish councils and their rising precepts they were only sent a note asking for no increase this year they won't receive any extra cash over the next four years, as the cost increase it is obvious they will raise the precept, how will this be funded by Rutland County Council more Cuts in Services and jobs at the Council?
I am beginning to wonder what the future role of Rutland County Council will be.
This Conservative team with the help of Helen Briggs has contracted out so much work to other local authorities and cut jobs.
It also cut grants to local organisations. some very important ones like Voluntary Action Rutland
They also refuse grants from outside Arts and Community Groups accept their own Arts For Rutland
The local schools are opting out of local authority control, when other school teachers are striking to avoid academy status, Rutland School are begging to get away from Rutland County Council.
They go on about Health and give up supporting school meals.
We have very poor public transport links. This needs a full review.
Those transport services that do look good are pointless, I often watch as the Empty Oakham Hopper drive past my home on the pavement.
Conservative Cllr Terry King wants to demolish our heritage, I am surprised by how many people visit this blog after searching for Lord Lonsdale the founder of the AA and Barleythorpe Hall.
This Conservative group see building new home as the answer to everything, the cash received from Government for building new homes only a short term solution.
I also want to see a rise in tourism but what is there to keep visitors here. Barleythorpe Hall should be preserved as a tourist attraction.
On jobs they pledge to £200,000 for super fast broadband into Rutland.
Its my understanding this came about because Helen Briggs and her other senior staff want to work from home to save cost? They found they found they could not work from home because of the poor internet service currently provided in Rutland.
On May the 5th Please vote for change and please don't vote for a Conservative if you really want that change. Please do your research some independents are really Conservatives.

Voters in Rutland beware is your candidate Truly Independent or a Closet Tory
Voters in Rutland beware of the Closet Tories.
There are many examples of Rutland County Councillors standing as Conservative for one Election and then next as Independent.
Looking through the poll notices of 2007, I see Councillor Peter Jones was a Conservative candidate back then and still is today. The interesting thing is too read Independent Candidate Paul Beech proposed him and his wife seconded him.
This year Paul Beech is standing as a Independent, but this has not stopped him and his wife signing Councillor Jones papers for this May's Election as assentors.
There are many examples of a tangled web of names on the poll notices. why not take a look before you decided who to vote for.
Notice of Poll - Unitary 2011 (PDF, 180 Kb)
I just hope the Liberal Democrat in my ward doesn't turn out to be a paid up member of the Conservatives.
At least this year, I along with the other voters in our ward have a proper choice this time around. Well its not that good.
2 seats to fill, 2 Conservative Candidates, 1 Liberal Democrat Candidate.
I don't want to waste my vote, so I will vote and it most certainly wont be wasted on a Tory.
Maybe as a Independent Candidate myself, I should not vote for any party?

Nominations Rutland County Council Elections Greetham Ward
This is the ward I am hoping to win, for many years now this has been Conservative Leader Roger Begy's Ward.
I like many people in Rutland believe it is time for change.
If you chat to people in Greetham you will hear stories from woman who claim to have be subjected to bullying. Property issues and I assume these are all true because when I mentioned one relating to property in Greetham, to a Oakham resident they immediately named the victim.
One Greetham resident said "You are very brave to stand against Roger Begy"
I can't imagine why?
I have delivered individual signed leaflets to all of Greetham and will be delivering soon to the other villages of the Greetham Ward.
I make no big claims and make a simple promise to serve the people of the Greetham ward. in a selfless manner.
I am also returning to Oakham Town Council, where I will fight to cut the extravagant spending if Upppingham Town Council can function with a income of £80,000 about the amount Oakham Town Council spends on Administration! Oakham Town Council can do much better.
