Election news - our opponents. Part one

Looking at our opponents in Ashton and Bryn we were confused as to the position of the Independents and CAP in both wards. CAP have put up a candidate in Bryn who is actively campaigning against Don Hodgkinson who left CAP last year. Clearly Cllr Hodgkinson must have incurred CAP leader Peter Franzen's deep displeasure for him to do this.

What is surprising is that the Independents did not put up a candidate against Paul Tushingham in Ashton.

Still this is nothing compared with what beleaguered Tory candidate Richard Clayton is putting up with in Orrell. It takes something to get your face in every national newspaper including the Times and on national TV.
