A letter from Roger Jones
I am writing to thank the people of Irlam & Cadishead for their support over the last 26 years. Naturally my family and friends are very upset by the election result, but politics is a rough business.
The way I look at it is that I have won eight elections and lost one and even Alex Ferguson would be happy with that record !!
I fully accept the verdict of local people and that it brings an end to my role as a local Councillor as well as Chairman of the Passenger Transport Authority. I have been to Manchester this weekend to clear my office and desk ready for the new Chairman to be elected in June.
Do I have any regrets ? – No. Any disappointments? – Yes. In accepting my defeat I did not want to be replaced by the community action party who bring politics to a new low. It is not just their lies, but they also bully and intimidate anyone who disagrees with them. I hope that local people will soon realise what these people are really like.
Roger Jones.
