| The
next Suffolk County Council elections are less than a year
away, in spring 2009. Unlike parish, town and district councils,
the county local authority makes decisions on a number of
key factors that affect all local lives eg Education, Social
Care, Transport etc...Help
keep national party politics out of these local issues!
Don
Tricker, standing as a non-political Independent, had a very
credible showing first time out in the County Elections in
2005, coming in only 384 votes behind the Labour candidate
- and without a party machine behind him.
His
result outperformed virtually all the UK Independence and
Green party candidates across the whole of Suffolk.
NB.
This website has remained essentially unchanged since May
5th , 2005, but will receive a radical revamp, serious
overhaul and extensive updating for May, 2009. A great deal
has changed since then with several more significant developments
and achievements by Don.Precisely because he is not a "career
politician" Don doesn't just pop up at elections! Don
continues to make a positive impact on the local community,
but as an elected county councillor, with the mandate of the
community, he could be even more effective...
It's
time for a real
change!!!
