There you go,from the horses mouth;
[quote quote=181389]The email asking for details went end of January and still waiting for response. Why not just publish them on his Web site.
Have you used the email and had a response?[/quote]Yes i have, a question about government funding for Farmers; i received a comprehensive reply around a week later but, as i said in a previous reply, he had lost his mum (early January) so was dealing with that as well as being a newly elected MP. so, at the time i thought he did well replying in a week. Remember he is up and down to London as that is where a lot of his work is done, he can’t be on your or anyone elses doorstep asking you what you would like, what’s upsetting you? , can i do anything for you? all the time can he? It could be that at the particular time you sent the email he was up to his eyes in it as i do know that the new MP’s did go into panic mode in January due to the amount of emails they were receiving from all over the shop as well as going through the process of being sworn in, getting set up in their Parliamentary office etc. etc. These people are not superhuman you know so, as i said, cut him/them some slack and reserve your judgement for their performance in the longer term. Simon has just got the keys to premises for his constituency office on the Vauxhall Industrial Estate Ruabon so when he’s got that set up you will be able to go and mither him there, enjoy :)
[quote quote=181373]Where are the details of the Surgeries???[/quote]
Why don’t you ask him??
[quote quote=181350]IMHO – if you look at the Job Description which all prospective MPs should have read before standing for election — how many people apply for a job without first reading what they must do if appointed. I will accept the argument that someone who is new needs to learn but we are now nearly three months in– so they should be ticking boxes — not sure that is the case for the two representatives in Wrexham– perhaps there may be more tick in 6 months.
Also I am not aware that MPs get a trainee salary as part of a six month induction period before collecting their full remuneration aren’t they expected to hit the ground running. Time will tell![/quote]
Oh. dear Derek, have to agree with Llayby-Lilly here.
If you were follow Simon on his FB page and his Twitter Feed (the modern way of communicating, even the POTUS does it) you would see he is getting around meeting people and getting involved in constituency issues (same goes for Sarah Aherton) but, i guess you wouldn’t want to do that preferring instead to sit at your keyboard and bellyache :)
PS.
By the way Derek, he, in common with all other MP’s holds regular surgeries around the constituency so why don’t you pop along to one and make your views known? Give him a piece of your mind kind of thing, after all, it is your right to do so as you pay his wages.[quote quote=181258]He is an mp who lives outside both Wrexham and south clwyd constituencies and as far as I can see the only thing he has done is jump on the ‘bash kronospan’ bandwagon.[/quote]
Correction, he lives at Chirk.
He, in common with Sarah Atherton and lot’s of other new MP’s is learning (on) the job and at the same time getting up to speed with all the duties of an MP; setting up an office, getting staff as well as getting around his constituency which, he is doing. He, has also recently lost his mother so, i suggest you cut the man some slack, stop belly aching and if you really want something looking into/doing damn well ask him; i feel sure you will find him a nice enough bloke and accomodating.
Have a website address;

PS. Kronospan deserve bashing and if he didn’t have something to say about them the residents of Chirk would be calling him rotten for not doing so! Can’t win isn’t in it!
[quote quote=180409]I shall be wearing a blue shirt to show solidarity with the EUROPEAN UNION. Unlike a lot of morons, I do understand the usefulness of being a member of the EU. The rest…. Phht…. deluded! End of Comment… no responses needed. Phht….[/quote]
I have to say a big thankyou to you and all the abusive remainers like you because, it is people like you, spouting your bile all over me and other leave voters that exercised their democratic right, to vote the way their conscience dictated and voted to leave that those people’s resolve was strengthened by yours and others insults and kept, when asked, coming back with the same answer to the leave, remain question and voting for leave culminating in today, at 11pm. we do, in effect, leave. So again, thankyou for your efforts in helping bring this about.
I’m immensely proud that the British people brought this about not by taking to the streets in numbers and rioting but by steadfastly using the ballot box. We waited and waited, we withstood the insults and when we got the chance we exercised our right to our vote once again and it was decisive resulting in a Brexit government with an unassailable majority. As i have said previously, it’s done it’s over we are leaving, get behind it and stop the insults as they demean you as much as they insult others.[quote quote=180383]I understand that the EU export 16% of it’s market to the UK. Are they really going to turn that away?
I may or may not raise a glass of Penderyn Welsh whisky to old friends & new.[/quote]
No, they are not as it would mean a jump in unemployment in Germany for one and Germany at the moment can not afford to risk that as it is already in bother.
[quote quote=180367]
Just because we are leaving the EU doesn’t mean we will not/can not buy and use goods made in EU countries.
That’s exactly what you voted for. We bought and sold goods and services as members of the EU trading bloc. We don’t have an alternative arrangement yet. The great deal that we did have (that you voted to toss away) involved free movement of goods and services, just-in-time frictionless trade and no internal tariffs. I gather France wants 25 years access to British fishing waters even before negotiations have begun, ho ho!
But I’d be delighted if you can demonstrate that I’m wrong. Tell the forum about what superb alternative is available and how it beats the great deal that we had as members of the EU.[/quote]
I really can’t be bothered to answer that as it’s just more remainer doom and gloom twaddle that’s been done to death, and more. We leave tomorrow and that’s it. Just as i (and millions of others) did in 1975 after being on the losing side in that referendum you need to get over it and get on board or, it’ll drive you mad.
[quote quote=180365]An acquaintance of mine, who is pro leaving the EU, has been spouting on, since the referendum, that he has a fine bottle of chablis that he will open when we officially leave the EU.
The irony seems to elude him.[/quote]You find it ironic that he wants to celebrate by drinking a French wine, why? Just because we are leaving the EU doesn’t mean we will not/can not buy and use goods made in EU countries. You are trying to be a tad too clever and, it doesn’t work. Me, i’ll be having a dram or two of one of Scotland’s finest single malts. Perhaps you’ll find that ironic too. Cheers.
[quote quote=176030]Funny that you should mention that young sir, but the cheeky beau Berty Einstein’s pet name for me was Loopy Maureen and he actually coined the phrase “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.” following me constantly refusing his advances, the man was in many ways though, an idiot.[/quote]
Relatively speaking of course.
