What will any small band of dissenters eventually call themselves..;"The Deckchair" "Small Plank Floating in the Mid Atlantic"? On a serious note re: Council Elections I think some of our micro-cosmic issues here parallel those of the wider political macro-cosm....small no: of truly engaged voters....first-past-the-post silly meanderings, obfuscations and misrepresentations....it's time we governed ourselves and stopped heaping responsibility on one family....but it's up to use not them to change the system..I'm sure dan would join us if he felt that enough people were manifestly committed to a more egalitarian approach...I've had my disagreements with him but the board splashes on in something approaching a consistent direction and that's all we can expect if we're not prepared to go further..he has my support here because the majority don't want change..."Power to the People!"

- How the board is moderated, and by whom, isn't a personal petty squabble. Nor is banning. If it - Rhisiart Gwilym May 3, 2019, 6:44 am
