Truro City Councillor: June 2009
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 7 June 2009. At last a long and difficult campaign is over. Don't think I could have managed another week! But a good result to show for it, I got 578, Conservatives 512, Greens 155, Mebyon. 149 and Labour 65 on a turnout of 41%, so LibDem. Have made it. Better look after them, because I think we're going to be needing them again soon! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Fellow Lib Dem Blogs.

Truro City Councillor: Bank Holiday Campaigning
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2009/05/bank-holiday-campaigning.html
Monday, 25 May 2009. Good weekends campaigning. Knocked on about 350 doors and telephoned 200 Postal Voters. Up till now, I've had no real trouble with the expenses. Scandal, but Saturday afternoon was hard work. Better today, so perhaps it was just that I was dragging people from the garden on a lovely sunny day. Or perhaps people don't feel the same need to be polite, when they finally get an actual politician. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Fellow Lib Dem Blogs.

Truro City Councillor: Campaigning
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2009/05/campaigning.html
Wednesday, 20 May 2009. I've let this blog wither away over the last year, but now seems a good time to revive it. I've been selected to fight Boscawen. Ward, here in Truro. For elections to the new unitary authority, One Cornwall. That's pretty much the Ward I represented as a Carrick. District Councillor, so I'm very familiar with the issues, and am able to carry on with the campaigns I've been involved in. First up, a plan to build 1000 houses on Newham. Farm, on the edge of Truro. Subscribe to: Po...

Truro City Councillor: New Year
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-year.html
Monday, 4 January 2010. Failed to get up and do the Brown Willie run. But did get out for a slow 6 miles, along the river, and then braved the scales. Not a happy moment. Been out for a run, or walk, every day since! But there are more important things than my weight in the weeks ahead. Tomorrow the Newham. Appeal starts. That's the plan to build 1000 houses on the edge of Truro. Friday sees the Parking Panel meeting again. I'm not a member of the Panel, no Truro. Councillor is, despite Truro. Councillor...

Truro City Councillor: March 2008
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 31 March 2008. The amount of personal stuff on this blog has occasionally. Been commented on. Kindly folk have said it has a touch of Bridget Jones, less kindly, that's you Cowley Street, have said that Rob has grasped that no one reads these blogs, so he doesn't. Waste time working out clever things to say, he just tells us what he did yesterday. What I did yesterday was An Resek. A 10 mile race from Helston. It's a great run, through the streets of Helston. And then up to Culdrose. He's a goali...

Truro City Councillor: Mayor for the Day
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2008/10/mayor-for-day.html
Thursday, 30 October 2008. Mayor for the Day. Another go at trying to resurrect. This blog. Its not that I've been idle, the reverse really, too much going on! Anyway, one of the things I've been working on is having two young people be Mayor for the Day, as part of the Children's. Day We did this last year and it was well received. The school actually contacted me, saying they were keen to do it again. So next Friday, the 7 th. November, the Head Boy and Head Girl of Penair. Then off to Carricks. Fellow...

Truro City Councillor: LibDems or SAS
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2008/08/libdems-or-sas.html
Friday, 8 August 2008. A surprising answer on Wednesdays edition of The Weakest. Link Anne Robinson asked, and this is not the question exactly, I wasn't. Taking notes, What is the name of the elite fighting force created by Donald Stirling in 1941? The contestant looked puzzled, brightened and answered The LibDems. I suppose that means the SAS. Are by election specialists with a forceful approach to pavement politics! 8 August 2008 at 16:18. Man in a Shed. 8 September 2008 at 10:08. Fellow Lib Dem Blogs.

Truro City Councillor: November 2008
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Friday, 21 November 2008. I had intended to sit quietly. But this was ridiculous, how much money has been spent on Officer time over the last 9 years? And the money to pay for the sculpture was there, provided by the developers. If we started from scratch that money would go into the new Unitary's. Is not obvious, but I'm sure that there were people in Paris who said 'whats Mr Eiffel's. Later in the week I lost on a casting vote, but I'll blog on that later. Links to this post.

Truro City Councillor: December 2009
http://trurocitycouncillor.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 29 December 2009. I'd sort of let this blog go to sleep, but Cornishcassandra has put it on his links, with the last time I blogged glaring out at me. 6 months ago. Election results. There were a number of reasons for stopping. Partly it just becomes a list of things a Councillor has done, as the Village Idiot pointed out last week, although happily he was talking about someone else! Then, on New Years Day, I'll get on the scales. Thankfully not in public! Links to this post. Fellow Lib Dem Blogs.
