Rutland County Council Notice of Election, Election of Parish Councillors

The sad state of Oakham and Rutland Politics was very evident today.
As I informed people of the availability of nomination packs for
Election onto Oakham Town Council nearly all those I spoke to raised
a serious concern about how they would be treated, "I don't want to be
ridiculed or slurred and attacked as you were"

Oakham Town Council, Helen Briggs and Roger Begy Terry King and
Gene Plews should be very proud of what they have achieved here in
Oakham.

I am personally prepared for attacks this time around from the few
cowards and bullies connect to our local governance and fully understand
the fears of others. They must not fear as this is the only chance we
make change.
