Independent parties prove to be a growing influence

L-to-R Charlie, Simon, Kettle, Peter, Clover, Dave

There is little sense in party politics in local government where everything should be about the issues and national party dogma has little relevance. What I believe local politics needs in Newbury is greater involvement and consensus, and objective rational debate with the evidence out in the open. There are some credible alternatives to traditional party politics this year - and that's not just a shaggy dog story.

Right an injustice - give Simon Kirby his allotment back!

Surely, as Party members, none of these candidates are Independent?

As far as I can work out of the four pictured one is against any green field development, but especially Sandleford; one is pro-Sandleford providing it is done well with a country park; and the other two want the planning system abolished to allow developers to build the huge number of houses needed without undue interference from authority.

I don't really see a party line there.
