I must confess I'm less than impressed by the visibility or involvement of our local councillors on this forum.
Where I used to live the local labour councillors were really pro-active getting involved with everything from an unruly hedge blocking a pathway, dog mess fly-tipping as well as crime and regeneration/building proposals for the area-In fact I still receive a monthly email from them telling me whats come to the councillors attention in the past four weeks and outcomes etc.
I really feel that like the forest hill SNT our councillors should do a monthly post on this forum telling us what has come to their attention in our area and what is being done about it.
I've always voted but having found our NEW local councillors so detached on this forum which to my mind is the ideal platform for them to keep up to date with and address local concerns I will most definitely NOT bother voting for them in the next local election.
