I would go with both.

The question is easy " why have the Wakefield public been conned and why are the council doing nothing about it"

Quote: Henny "Opportunity to question Mr Box Quote: Henny "For those who can’t attend in person, questions can be also submitted by email to Would be interesting to see how he reacted/answered if everyone sent in questions to the above. His response to the chairman of the Supporters Trust on the radio last week was appalling in my opinion and showed a complete lack of respect for the people of Wakefield. Can someone in the know confirm the real legalities of the S106 agreement in terms of the involved parties. Cllr Box said it was between the Stadium Trust and the Developer and was insisted upon by the SOS not Wakefield Council. Is that correct? Or is it as stated by others above an agreement between the developer and the local authority as they are the beneficiaries???? Surely if it is the LA that are the beneficiaries then he can't just wash his hands of it.

The Labour Party now seems to be Tory lite

Always been said pin a red rosette on a monkey and they'd still get in for WMDC that's why we have the fools we have at the moment.

A very good question.

Was too much trust placed in Yorkcourt who clearly had no intention of delivering the required percentage of floor space to trigger the development ?
Why weren't the pressure groups promoting the development concerned about the possibility of this happening ?
The scenario was brought up by a couple of posters on Casforum that this could happen and yet was ignored or was it one massive gamble ?

see the liblabcon panic last week in the scottish referendem,if the labour council in wakefield think the stadium issue could be a big vote loser next year it might convince them to act.so if they wont do anything dont vote for them simple.

Reading the various comments the problem appears to be between the developers and whoever drafted the agreement. I may be missing something but in what way did the council impede the development.

A politician lying, who would have thought it?

Why don't we split the council so that they can only vote for the areas they represent, oh wait a minute Newmarket falls into the East of the district.

There's an area in the park that would make a great ground............oh wait

To be brutally honest I don't give a flyer about the Cas ground!

This is not an obvious labour city we no longer have any heavy industry or mining sold off I believe but I can't remember by whom. I object to your reference to the majority being fools because they vote for what they believe, many I suppose will remember what we had before it was taken away. I may consider those that vote for other parties to be idiots and would ask what have they done for Wakefield to make things better and on what basis should we consider changing our votes. Do you actually believe we would have a stadium if the conservatives had been in power, if so why because their current track record is not that great on spending.

Me either.
