WE would like to thank the people of Chatteris who gave us their help and support in the recent by election in Slade Lode Ward for District and Town Council seats.
Unfortunately, we were defeated on this occasion, but the town and district council seats in Chatteris all fall due for election again in May 2007, so all is certainly not lost!
Currently the Conservatives overwhelmingly dominate local politics and, with this in mind, we were surprised to find they devoted such an astonishing and unprecedented level of effort to winning in Slade Lode.
In most organisations, some fresh ideas and a little opposition to the status quo is not entirely unwelcome!
