Don’t you just hate Politics?
It is my firm belief that local government is poorer because of the politics and self-interest of the various parties involved. Sensible decision-making should be dispassionate and based on objective analysis and careful consideration of available information. But made in the knowledge that any actions will affect the lives of real people. Consequently, bringing party politics into the equation can lead to a disservice to the local community.
Being apolitical, I am wholly disinterested and uninvolved in any form of party politics - my only concern is the betterment of OUR community. That’s not to say that I don’t agree with certain tenets of the recognised political parties, but rather see no useful place for party politics and the inevitable petty pointscoring in the context of OUR community.
