Last week I managed to deliver a leaflet to over half the households in Castle Ward before the beginning of the qualifying period on Friday 25 March. The reason for doing this is that the cost does not count in the election expenses, so it makes the Budget go further. Many thanks to those who helped deliver.

A common remark is that local government has far too much bureaucracy, so much so that the left-hand does not know what the right-hand is doing. Whilst the Hertfordshire adult is left morose by local government, it is playing a much more positive role for young people this January.

Political parties beware, the 'others' are emerging.
Before we fall into confusion, by 'others' we don't mean a recent horror movie, (but they may bring a shiver down the Big Threes' spines!). 'Others' refers to any minority party and non-aligned (Independent) politician.
