IMPORTANT PLEASE READ This website and forum has been living on borrowed web server time for years. At the end of this month silsden.net in it's present form will cease to exist, BUT there is a new silsden.net in the making, and a new forum, and lots of exciting new things coming to this space.

Topic : Mallinson at it again |

Even though he fails to represent people in the Craven Ward on Bfd Council and having failed to win a seat on Craven District Council he is once again to stand for Craven Council this time at Cowling www.keighleynews.co.uk/news/14380867.Cowling_race_heats_up_as_parish_clerkAndrew_Mallinson_is_selected_to_stand_as_a_Conservative/ |

He never does anything good for the people he is supposed to work for now, how can he work for two wards. This proves he is only in it for the money. |

Cowling seems to have similar issues with him! www.cravenherald.co.uk/news/14382118.Cowling_race_heats_up_as_parish_clerkAndrew_Mallinson_is_selected_to_stand_as_a_Conservative/ quote |

Maybe he meant to announce this a week on Friday, I.E. 1ST April? |

HAVING read the recent report in your columns on the new Conservative candidate for Cowling – Outgoing Tory may fight his party’s new candidate for the seat (Craven Herald, March 24) – it set alarm bells ringing over the Skipton and Ripon Conservatives branch’s failure to select a local candidate from the parish or at least from within Craven district. Their approach, instead, very much undermines this basic principle of local democracy by ‘parachuting in’ a Bradford councillor. Your readers may recall that in last year’s Craven District Council elections, this Conservative branch selected the same Bradford councillor as its ‘local’ candidate for Glusburn ward. This Conservative branch must have a very wide interpretation of the word ‘local’, and for whatever reasons, also have a strong desire to find him a seat somewhere on Craven District Council. This is despite him already having more than 13,000 electors to represent in Addingham, Silsden, Steeton and Eastburn at Bradford Council. During and after the local elections in Glusburn last year, I was asked by many voters where this ‘local’ Conservative candidate actually lived, as there was no information on the election leaflet. Perhaps the Cowling voters will be informed, or maybe not. As an experienced councillor, I would like to emphasise the importance and benefits of having local candidates, who live within the district ward they would like to represent. These are the candidates who know the local issues and the residents’ concerns and are, therefore, best placed to concentrate their efforts on representing the local electorate at Craven. COUNCILLOR PHILIP BARRETT Independent councillor, Glusburn ward |

At least the people of Cowling saw him for what he is. |
