I think Creagh has really shot herself in the foot in a big way this time.

They don't make this type of mistake where their careers are concerned, the fact that she so blatantly middle finger saluted her constituents suggests she's already got her next job lined up.

In the interest's of balance, what has the area's Tory MP Ms Jenkins) done to help with facilitating a new/ revamped ground ?

Both MPs have met with representatives of the Trust. Mary Creagh posted a question in the commons above us the planning process which helped clarify the role of WMDC and We are working with Andrea on something at present. We need their help at this time!

Don't know much about how helpful Andrea Jenkins has been. Suffice it say that pre election our letterbox was filled with promises on a daily basis, since then not a dicky bird either in writing, on TV or anywhere.

Trinity's new season just previewed on Calendar, and guess what, They actually stated that we'd ditched the Wildcats tag. One up on the good old Beeb there then.

Of course Mary Creagh would be happy if we stayed put, it would no longer be her problem as Belle Vue is in Jon Trickets Hemsworth constituency. His silence on the matter has been deafening.

Tricky John is far too busy gaining votes by fighting HS2

Lets get philosophical for a minute. There are two schools of thought -



1. You elect an MP as your representative to vote as THEIR conscience dictates. This has been the accepted view for a long time but it does mean that the actual electors can feel as they are only considered at election time and then forgotten about.

2. You elect an MP as your representative to vote as YOU dictate. This means that they should check the views of their constituents on each vote - maybe even a mini referendum - which is probably impractical.



Not only that but they have to represent ALL constituents, not just the ones who voted for them. That makes life even more difficult. I'm not saying one way is right and the other wrong but it does show that democracy is messy to say the least. The Brexit vote was something like 52% to 48% so the 48% or nearly half the population have to have their views considered at some stage - unless the losing side gets ignored altogether. Maybe when everything goes online everyone can have a vote on everything (but I reckon it would probably lead to an even bigger mess!).

Yup, can't really hold a grudge against Creagh - she's doing what she thinks is best for her constituents, even if they don't agree. She knows far more about it than your man in the street and is not there to blindly vote for whatever is popular at the time.

Bullcrap!

In Wakefield it was 66% to 34%
