To be fair Roz, you are right, in my case I should give Mr O'Dowd the benefit of the doubt in that correspondence was not dealt with which could be due to a variety of reasons. It is good to hear he has been involved with constituent's problems, like your electricity supply ( sounds a trial). I wondered though if the lack of respose to me was because my correspondence was about something which could have been construed as critical of the Labour councils and Mayors administration ( and the Mayors unhelpful response to). Added to the mix was Alex Feakes premature and wrong judgement call on the 20MPH zone left me feeling that none of the politicians seemed to be interested.
