Parish Of Oakham South East Ward Declaration of Acceptance of Office of Councillor

Parish Of Oakham South East Ward Declaration of Acceptance of Office of Councillor










































Today I signed my papers, it was not a celebratory experience.

I learnt that three weeks ago members of the old council informally
met and all members of the council are now banned from entering
the council office, including the current deputy mayor who was
rather amusingly standing behind the person telling me this fact in
the office. Oakham Town Council is a funny old thing.

I had a meeting with Cllr Alf Dewis the current deputy
Mayor I said I would not publish the content of that
discussion / lecture however it should be described and
just say I am no school boy and if Mr Dewis is a man
of his word we start the new council with a clean slate.

I am proud to be able to serve the community of Oakham.

Like all the others eight Councillor I have no support from
our community. Because we are all elected unopposed.
Which I assume puts us all on a level footing from
the start.

I am willing to listen to the community to find out what they want
from their town Council.
