You are wasting your time.

The stadium issue is clouding a lot of people's judgement and causing them to focus only on the negatives.

All good debate.

Just worth repeating what others are saying.



General election and council local elections are different.

Box is a Councillor not an MP. You could in theory vote the opposite way in each election as they do different jobs.

exactly my intention

I've no doubt she's absolutely genuine and has honest intentions but she'll get swallowed up by Tory ideology and if she doesn't do as the Chief Whip tells her she'll have a short politicians career.

A conservative government have already set out their plans for the cuts that are coming and they are going to be much worse than we have seen already. George Osbourne has missed his target to clear the deficit by a mile, he got his sums wrong. Now he is in a rush to save face and for the next two years under the conservatives then it will be very painful. The NHS, education, benefits, etc have already been mentioned on here and all would be in serious danger but concentrating on the stadium issue, where is the funding coming from? We know the developer is supposed to be funding the majority but if there was any hope of the council serving up that £2 million which is needed under the s106 will have gone as their income will be slashed. Other areas of funding that I imagine have been earmarked for the other community facilities at Newmarket will be removed as they will be deemed non essential and directed elsewhere. The two year plan will cause growth to stall as people wait for the end of austerity before spending their money (if they have any to spend), meaning businesses will suffer, new builds won't happen and the trigger point never reached. And given his past record the likehood is that Osbourne will miss his targets again and the cuts will go on longer prolonging the misery.



Labour plan to cut more slowly, easing the pressure on councils and other services who are already stretched to breaking point. It's my opinion that a Labour lead government with potentially three front bench Wakefield MP's and a Leeds based S.O.S. who has a good working relationship with the probable chancellor would hold much more influence over Box than a conservative one and with much less by the way of cuts something good might yet come of this. If we wake up tomorrow with the conservatives back in control then I think we can finally kiss Newmarket goodnight.

Yes the NHS, education child benefits etc should be untouchable but are people forgetting the amount of debt the precious government (Labour) racked up? There have to be some cuts somewhere in the system to clean up the mess Labour made in their 13 years. Also I have seen some people (not specifaclly on here) saying they are voting Labour because they are working mans part, well IMO they haven't been a working mans party for several years now.

I think you are lost ?

On a Wakefield Trinity forum I think you will find the focus is on our new ground (or lack of it).



Trying to work out the best way of helping this happen is the only difficulty.



Your friends in Cas have done rock all to help, in fact they are so dis-interested that they can't even be bothered to meet up with The Community Trust.

So, no clouding of judgement, just frustration at WMDC (perhaps if should be re named Castleford District Council)

I'd rather the district be split in half to better reflect the public's sense of belonging.

Never voted never been a political animal nor has my family, but I have finally have a cause that is totally worth my vote

Man OH Man am I sick of hearing this for the last 5 years.



The whole world lived that way, the =#FF0000GLOBAL recession was started in the U.S. Sub Prime markets and dominoed throughout the world.



LABOUR DID NOT CREATE THE WORLDWIDE RECESSION



No one saw it coming, not even the know it all Conservatives who've propagated the lie at every opportunity.



Vote how you want to that's everyone's prerogative but please don't fall for this bull!

The right to vote is nothing to do with being a political animal poplar!

Don't you realise its called Democracy and that people have died fighting for the right to vote.

What the hell do you want, a world run by dictators ,where you have no rights whatsoever!

For sure, Labour did not create the problem, but they were guilty of over spending.

Mr Milliband, when questioned earlier this week, actually said that they had not over spent.

IMO this is the craziest thing said during the whole election campaign.



The guy seems ok and I would certainly rather spend time in his company than, Mr "silver spoon" Cameron but

I don't think that Milliband would qualify as any kind of book keeping guru.
