Know your ward

If there is one thing a councillor needs to remember before making a 13 second video about his or her ward, it's to get the name of the ward right.

Unfortunately, Princes Park's Anna Ruthery didn't follow this simple guide.

As the first candidate to announce her intention to seek the nomination for Labour's Wavertree PPC nomination (but also the first to withdraw) you would think this rule would be drummed into her.

A real scouse boy said...

Well you need to tell that to the Labour party because it is spelt Ruthery on you youtube page!

This doesn't surprise me in the least.

Judy the Donkey was a great servant to the children in Princes Park and we should be making plans for her centenary with a new memorial

Unfortunately Anna wouldnt know who Judy is, nor would her elected colleagues, I guess. Having visited the ward today, it seems they dont care a damn for the electors. The ward was an absolute disgrace, street lights out, dumping, vandalism.........need I go on, it seems Cllr Moore (Cllr Ruthery's ward colleague) has been spending a little too much time critisizing the emergency workers from the Council and other agencies, who during the very cold weather went far beyond the call of duty, instead of dealing with Councillors bread & butter which is the residents and the environment of the ward they supposedly represent.

Is this how stupid you are picking on a Councillor who got a word mixed up .

We will take contol in May and by the way LOUISE has not resigned lyings to rags

Ethical bill said...

You could hardly call it being picked on, more like light hearted teasing. A bit oversensitive there.

Flowers for Judy said...

Even today, children place flowers and cherry blossom by Judy's memorial. If the Labour ward councillors don't know anything about Judy then I suspect that some of the local LibDems do so how about recognising the tremendous affection that Judy has attracted for decades after her death ?

Judy, The Children's Friend said...

As I am no longer about, I think the Ward councillor's should offer their services as entertainment to the children.

Hands up who would like to ride Anna?

Hands up who wants to ride Tim Moore! Moore! Moore!...Mrs Furious Gay?

I'm very tolerant but some of the posts here have been far too offensive to publish, and have therefor been rejected. You know who you are, and you are wasting your time posting them here.

Whilst i could never be accused of lacking a sense of humour i think you have gone too far by posting such a lewd comment on your site

As one of the children who grew up in liverpool 8 and constantly visited the the park and in particular the flower garden which always culminated with laying flowers on Judy's grave (wild ones as opposed to the cultivated flowers from the garden)I might hastily add
I find it wholly offensive that you have allowed such an unsuitable comment to be posted
I would like to think I was brought up by my parents in a manner that respects tradition and doesnt seek to denegrate one of the most cherished childhood memories of many of the children brought up in Toxteth
