I WONDER if any of your readers have the same experience I have when contacting the leaders of our councils?

Whenever I send an email or leave a telephone message with a PA or answer machine the response is diverse. The Labour-led city council always acknowledge and reply. Full marks to them.

The county however have hardly ever replied even though the automated reply says “Thank you for contacting us” etc.

Given the looming General Election and being a floating voter I will put my X against who I think has an interest in my opinion and area and does not treat the electorate in contempt.

I would suggest that Cllr Ian Hudspeth looks at the damage his apparent disinterest will do to the Tory vote.
