That might be the reason why Mr Box won't talk to the trust.

But if he had talked maybe he would still be a MP, I can't believe a part of Wakey has gone Tory

Has he got a tardis or something.
Box hasn't had the decency to meet the trust for 3 years +

I know the guy is full of his own importance but, even he cant see into the future with that much accuracy

What I would've given to see his fat smug face when the results came out,no romantic night in with Yevette then

Ngb4c - just as a matter of interest and completely off the top of your head, how many people in outwood and Morley constituency do you think voted against Balls because of the stadium issue?

So what was stopping him meeting the trust before it all got political?

Pre- the creation of the MDC, the old Wakefield City Council was always Conservative. Recently we've had Conservative Councillors representing the South, North, East and Central Wards. It's the weight of the outlying districts that control the MDC.

Perhaps we could have a referendum and spilt the district.

Not so much Morley and Outwood but Stanley which isn't even mentioned as an area. We've disappeared off the political map during his tenure. I can't answer your question accurately but he didn't lose by many although I think he only had an 1100 majority anyway

Saw an interview with a Morley resident this morning and they refer to Balls as 'Wheres Wally' due to him never being in the area!

It would only have taken 551 people to change from Balls to Jenkyns to get him out, on the issue of support for the stadium.

I would certainly like to think that there are 500 people in the constituency who would have done just that.

Been saying that for years, ditch that lot out in the 'badlands' and get the City back on its feet.
