Start of the tour de Yorkshire today as I thought KING BOX was at the start line saying how great the Tour is for Wakefield and the fans were shouting.
"there's one councillor BOX ". Etc etc what a man what a self.publicist turd he is makes me sick

The main cheer leader was his agent tigerade our WTW correspondent from Cas

Sickening yesterday seeing him lap up the attention knowing he's shafted the only professional sports club in Wakefield. Shame on Bully Boy Box. Been a labour voter all my life. No more. Not while that self serving prat is leader. Rant over.

Been a Labour voter all my life too, I want them to win the GE and get the Tory's out of Government but I'm almost settled with the thought of voting UKIP this time.

I know Labour will get in anyway but if enough people desert Labour over this Tin Pot Dictators actions maybe the bloody nose will at least make them think

My thoughts exactly. When I think of our clubs history, ambassadors such as Neil Fox and the pride that could return to our city if the clubs fortunes were to turn around I am totally incensed by how the leader of Wakefield council is behaving.

I understand how you feel but I honestly think you're better off voting Labour in the GE and then putting pressure on the Labour MP when s/he gets in. Voting other than Labour in the council elections would be effective but only if you could mobilise a large number of people to do likewise.

Don't get your logic at all on that one. TBH Box and his corruption needed removing long before the NM fiasco blew up.

I would change the rules for both national and local government such that no individual can be in control for more than 2 terms. For local government that would be 8 years, plenty time for anyones pet subject. That's not to say the leader shouldn't come from the main party, but just not the same individual. I do think WMDC would be different under anyone else tbh. Peter's time has seen plenty of good things happen in the City, but he is now so entrenched in what he sees as right and wrong that he cannot even bare to face us over the table to tell us what we already know!

BOX DOES NOT CARE!

I totally agree.

I see you've logged in on the wrong account again

If anyone thinks voting a Conservative government in will get Trinity a new ground then they are deluded, they do not care, they will not go against their business pals.
The only way WMDC is likely to take any notice is to vote against the Box party in the local elections

Exactly this is not a national issue and it matters not who is in government.

The power to make this happen is at local level and the only way to get justice is to get rid of box and his gang.

Anyone who cares about our club and votes Labour at a 'LOCAL LEVEL' needs to understand the consequences.

My vote won't be for them either nationally, I'm disillusioned not deluded.
My point was that as a labour voter nationally & locally for many years the way our club has been shafted by Box has lead to me leaving the party I have previously supported. His refusal to even meet our chairman to discuss the current situation is appalling.

Appalling but not altogether surprising.
