GOTV

I urge all members to Get Out To Vote. We need your support to stop the extremists from taking any seats. I saw today that one party took to hanging posters on public lamp posts. I think that shows the lack of respect they have for our city.

So Vote today in the European Elections and Vote Labour!

    Why cant the party concentrate on getting their act together instead of deflecting the issue…give the electorate some credit…the majority of people in this country do have the brains to sort the wheat from the chaff.
    I appreciate you are taking the flak for all the parties in the expenses debacle and I fail to understand why more emphasis hasnt been made by the labour spin that this is a cross party issue.

    In the last few days Ive been saddened and appalled watching the party ripping itself to shreds (I havent seen any other parties doing this)…it wont need any other party to oust it at the next elections-youre doing it all by yourselves.
    Changing leadership will not solve the parties problems…talk about the night of the long knives…its the massive egos within the party that need addressing. Lets get back to labour values…we are losing good honourable councillors..those that really do the hard work for the party.. unite or forever hold your peace.

    What we don’t need are MP’s who rock the boat and put their own political career before the party’s interests.

    Cant begin to tell you how sad I feel!
    EU results in-BNP with 2 seats.

    I hope that mps from all parties are satisfied now! …..results caused by petty infights, greed and ego trips … you reap what you sow and the innocent of this country suffer as a consequence.

    Parliament has been shown up in all its ugly glory-what a sad day for democracy of our brilliant country.

    Wonder who will be next on the witch hunt-the electorate are baying for blood.
    Methinks local government- are good councillors are going to be tarred with the same brush? They must all stand up and be counted-no more hiding behind party whips.

    I asked Iain Lindley about their campaigns in Ordsall and Langworthy-just thought Id share the answer with you..

    Iain says the following

    Thanks for your comments on my blog

    Our local campaigner for Ordsall was Yan-Nin Cockayne, who I know worked pro-actively with local residents across the area. Unfortunately Yan has now moved out of Salford and is unable to continue her hard work. We do have members in Ordsall and Langworthy and I am sure that some of them will take a lead in the community in the near future

    As you will be aware, we do not (sadly, yet) have any Conservative Councillors in the Ordsall or Langworthy area, but we will continue to promote a positive Conservative alternative to the people of Salford who have been let down and taken for granted by the Labour Council.

    As a Conservative group of Councillors we are happy to take up any issues from local residents across Salford, if you have any specific issues that you feel the Conservative group could help with, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We also have a strong “city seats” team of candidates working across Salford and Manchester who are happy to speak with any local residents.

    As Conservatives we are trying to get out and about and speak to as many local residents as possible, however as I am sure you will appreciate there are over 200000 people in Salford and with limited resources we cannot knock on every door overnight!
    I hope this answers some of your concerns, if you have any further questions please get in touch.
