Correct Matt, and thse who ridicule the protest outside LaAtherton’s empty office are either too willful or to stupid to realise.
I am unable to do a “cut and paste” job, but if you can look at the facebook or twitter pages of Bellevue Football Club they have written an excellent and compassionate response to LaAtherton.
Why did she need to put her penn’orth into the migrant debate? At what point does that impinge on her constituency unless there is an issue with the ability of Wrexham to accommodate any refugees?
Her stance is disgraceful anyway, designed to tap into populist politics and divert attention from other issues.
#notmympIt is indeed sad and worrying.
I wonder if La Atherton can drag herself away from a photo opportunity at The Racecourse to represent her constituents who are loosing their jobs?
” I suspect the reason was follow the party line, do not rock the boat, look to number 1 and not her constituents.”
Which I think welchboy, is the blunt instrument people on here used to beat our previous MP over the head during the Brexit votes.
However, I’m sure Lilly from Llay will have a defence for LaAtherton.I’ll be brief. A friend has written to Sarah Atherton on three occasions with legitimate concerns and has not received a reply to any of them.
The “tin hat brigade” was a confederate vigilante group from Texas, so no, most certainly I am not one of those. Perhaps you got your metaphor mixed up!
However, there is clearly a career waiting for you in the modern Conservative party (if you are not already there!!!)as evidenced by your taking the response off to your own advantage.
I’m sure McDonalds have exemplary employment policies. They have targets for diversity and are quick to let us know! That is not the issue.
The issue is that the M.P for Wrexham chooses to promote them rather than local businesses, who at this unprecedented time need all the help they can get.
You may or may not think it worth while posting another reply to my point, but I shall let you have the last word. (unless it is actionable!!!)
Best wishes.Ms Lilly, The harm is that McDonalds is an international company with a huge marketing budget and they can and do buy their own advertising on a massive scale. They compete with local companies who, at the best of times would struggle to “get their name out there” with very little money for promotion and advertising.
These are the same local companies who perhaps elected her and deserve to have her on their side and they may recall her actions at the next election.
Seems we are not the only ones who never learn.I’ve come to this news story a bit late. So could someone tell me why the decision to demolish a building needs to be taken in secret? I can sort of understand if there is a third party commercial interest in a development, but a demolition?
Tonight on BBC2 there is a film, “The Windermere children” which tells the story of friendships forged in the days after WW2. Friendships between Jewish children from the death camps were brought to the UK in just the clothes they stood in and the local children of the Lake District where they began a new life. These children were looked after by local families, many of whom had nothing themselves. They were made safe and given a future. Just the same as in our own area, refugees from Poland were settled in safety. They were not regarded as a burden on our schools and health services, they were regarded as innocents in need.
I would suggest it is this legacy that makes our country great not jingoistic nationalism and hand wringing about the cost of refugees or even claims that we bombed who and what. It is also in stark contrast to the legislation just passed by our government which will not allow child refugees in, and, for which I for one will never forgive the MP who currently stands in the Wrexham constituency. Given this current legislation those Jewish children and some of the Polish refugees would not have been allowed safety in our country.
