Sleaze Already
Friends and readers it did not take long for the shit to hit the fan in the Forth Ward By-election.
In a story that Pilton Sucks covered first,the Evening News has cottoned on to what Pilton Sucks reported. In Thursdays edition[9-09-08] Alan Roden reports the unseemly quick calling of the Labour Party selection, and how some local activists felt angry about how this meeting was conducted.
We have to say it does not surprise us. We told you how the correct candidate for the area former Councillor William Fitzpatrick was purposely hi-jacked in a bid to stop him being selected.
A number of members have refused to help out in the by-election and this is a sad reflection of what should have been an open and democratic selection procedure.
It’s clear there was an anti Fitzpatrick campaign put together by some of his comrades to stop him being selected and ironically Mr. Fitzpatrick was their best chance of winning this by-election.
Somebody is trying to pull the strings of the local members and get them to dance to their tune. Answers on a postcard to
The By-election Naughty bits

P.S We did report to you that the Labour Leader and covering letter were not printed locally or even in the North Of the City,Any reason why?
