Richard Baum

Liberal Democrat Councillor for St Marys ward - Bury MBC

Meetings coming up

A number of my friends have started a Facebook group calling for me to be installed leader of the Lib Dems. This was a nice surprise… There are five members so far. Unfortunately none of them are MPs, so can’t count towards the 7 required. Also, I am not an MP, which also throws somewhat of a spanner in the works. So I don’t think Messrs Huhne, Clegg etc are losing sleep over it. Yet.

Today I have a couple of meetings. First up this afternoon there is a meeting of the Alternative Service Delivery Models sub-group, where we get to talk through options for alternative service delivery ideas with Council officers and Trades Unions. A lot of my questions from last time have been answered, but now I have more.

And then tonight it’s the Local Area Partnership where, amongst other things, we have a presentation on street cleaning. Given that this issue is one that seems to irritate local people more than any other, I hope to have a full and frank discussion about what can be done to make Prestwich cleaner for all of us who live there.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

Rick
