I'm not quite sure how spending (Labour) government money on fixing pot holes in ALL wards can be construed as bashing the council.

As Chairman of the Society, I feel it important that I am not aligned with any particular party. However, I will work with politicians from all parties for the benefit of the area. To this end, I have been working with LibDem and Labour councillors and a Labour MP (as iincumbents) on the train campaign. I was mistakenly claimed as a local supporter in one party's recent literature, but they have subsequently corrected this.

As far as I am aware, Forest Hill Society's executive committee comprises supporters of all the main parties as well as free thinkers.
