| Our local Tory councillors have spent years opposing everything. It's got us nowhere. The "not one tree" campaign ensured that we lost our bus lane rather than some excess pavement, and ended up with a crappy cycle lane. It was always coming but total opposition meant that a considered scheme had no chance. If you've witnessed any of the zoom meetings involving the council you will see the utter lack of respect that Labour & Tory councillors have for each other. Nothing will ever be done for Chiswick with this approach. There comes a time in any "conflict" (that's what it feels like) that the only way forward is to work with your enemy. Voting Lib Dem will deliver a new face and, from other councils, promises to deliver a track record of working "with" rather than "against". I am not a member of any party. I have voted for all 3 main ones. Leaving aside the moral corruption of the Conservatives and purely on a local level - their approach has not worked and the Lib Dems came close last time. So we could change it. |
