Why Labour Cllr Parkinson said she didn't come to the protest


Many residents are upset that none of the Cllrs attended the protest in Standish. This is well documented all over social media. But why many ask? Well last night I heard it for myself.

I guess it important to say that the Cllrs had said both Cllr Parkinson and Whittingham we all don't want them there so we are all on the same page. Important to note this.

So after the meeting I was talking to a couple of residents and when Labour Cllr Parkinson came over trying to say get my facts right about how much she is paid. That figure is £23K she wanted me to say. Put that on top of the other two £14K each you get these lot are costing us £51K a year. Over £4K per month - value you for money - Not especially when they hide from the residents.

Back to the article, one of the resident asked why did she not attend the protest? She said she has to represent either all, or the majority residents views and there were some on that side and then some on the other so she didn't know where to attend. 

WAIT A MINUTE !!! So I jumped in so you are saying that you think the majority of  Standish residents support asylum seekers coming to Kilhey Court and that is why you didn't attend? Realising in a hole she quickly said whilst holding up her arms - I don't know! Again I asked you don't know where the majority of people think. But remember she had said in the meeting we all agree that they shouldn't be housed there. So why the two different views within minutes? Caught out!
