16/05/05 - Swindon Labour Council Group Hit New Low

Lurching from disaster to disaster (local election meltdown, leading to the Conservatives taking overall control for the first time in 25 years) over the last few years, you'd think with the reselection of Cllr Kevin Small as the Group Leader (again, again and again!) things might start to upturn.

HOWEVER, news just in...

Cllr David Wren, Dorcan Ward has resigned from the Labour Group, becoming an independent.

If only this was the end of their problems, however it is believed this is only the first of the resignations, with more to follow...

With both the Labour & Liberal Groups losing Councillors left right and centre, it is left to the Conservative Group to provide the strong leadership needed to improve Swindon Council, unacceptably rated as 'poor' after 25 years of Labour waste and mismanagement.
