@nalc @NALCchiefexec reading this worrying article about Leigh on Sea Town Council, is appears from the Chairman’s quote that, not only are members predetermined, but that a party whip is being used at T&PC level. Would you care to investigate?

Please, if you see this, share it far and wide. My Uncle’s dog has been missing since Friday, after their kennels were broken into. My cousin is absolutely inconsolable. Archie is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met, and we miss him so much. Please help to get him home

Thank goodness times have changed. This letter was in the periodical of the National Association of Parish Councils 100 years ago. It turns out that women are perfectly capable of making it all the way through a council meeting without fainting!!🙄 #BreakTheBias

St Albans was the first Church of England cathedral to welcome regular services held by other Christian traditions. You’ll find Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran and Free Church congregations here. Just one of many reasons to love it.
