Deputy Labour Leader backs Cllr George Fairhurst

In a Strange and surprising event at this year's Council Budget Meeting the Labour Leader was not present due to health reasons and the Deputy leader then delivered the budget and did the Q&A.

When the all the other Cllrs had spoken the Deputy labour Leader rose and spoke and summed up. In that summing up he said that the Cllr George Fairhurst sang and danced for Standish and Standish didn't need anyone else, so everyone else should stay out of Standish.

Naturally, one would have expect the Deputy Labour Leader to have been backing his candidate for this Election but it seems that the excellent work that all the Standish independents do for Standish is recognised now by Labour Deputy leader.
