Quote: Wakey Til I Die "Think that horse has bolted, Box and his cronies won't give a damn about that they are getting re-elected with our without our support and then have five years to sit on it. And Yorkcourt have proved they have no shame.
Baseball bat around the kneecaps is probably the only course of action left for them. The biggest meeting in the clubs meeting malarly will be a whip round for some wood to swing and some balaclavas.'"
Not quite as simple as that. Council elections are staged over a 4 year period as far as I recall. So although it's to late to pressure Box and co this time around there is ample time to do it over the next 18 month.
Some of the Wakefield wards are held by very small majorities with a very small voter turn out - we make this an issue it may affect that vote - especially if we target councillors who don't back us by putting up our own candidates which is possible - single issue groups have done this with some success in the past - I believe it worked in Featherstone regarding the swimming pool.
