I feel residents should show
support to their parish councillors by at least attending the annual meeting in
the village hall to listen to what they have done on our behalf and make them
feel valued (though based on the turnout I am in a small minority) but the
downside of course is that you have to field their repeated pleas for
volunteers for this, that or the other; I didn’t volunteer for this (join them
as a councillor) or that (organise a neighbourhood watch scheme) but put my
name down for the other – training for ‘speedwatch’, where we get to use
traffic cop equipment to clock cars speeding through the village and grass up
the owners to the police.
