Labour lose Control. 

I hear we have a new mayor....

We just need the Double up Today, Good Luck Melanie.

We just need the Double up Today, Good Luck Melanie.

 

I think that's expecting rather a lot....

Melanie has some brilliant ideas for our town.

Let's not loose her.

Bedlington needs anyone who can help.

So who's pulling the strings now?

Sym, the new mayor is one of our very own......

Congratulations to Malcolm I believe are due .

Indeed, Maggie, and a better man for the job would be hard to find.

Agreed mercuryg.

However it is going to be a difficult job.

I hope everyone regardless of political persuasion helps with the difficult or almost impossible task of regeneration.

Whether your a 'Doom and Gloom ' individual or an MP or a NCC representative the future has to be working together for the town we love.

The people involved in the 'Make a Noise for Bedlington' also need help with the job in hand.

No negativity.

Not to sure who we can trust in this 'Post Election ' time.

Surely the old guard will feel,the need to help in any way they can.

Let me add my own tribute - good for you Malcolm Robinson, now go for gold.

Are congratulations in order for Malcolm? what is the situation? I've tried reading the posting, even between the lines but just don't quite get the picture.

It is my belief that Malcolm is the new Mayor of West Bedlington Vic.

Thanks folks and of course I will let you all know the score. Been pretty hectic at work recently but it should start to ease off this week! Yes I am chair of the Town Council and because its a Town Council the chair is called a mayor. I have no doubt many on here will keep me on my toes!

Congratulations Malcolm, will you have to wear one of them heavy chains and a three cornered hat?   

To save me looking ... what party is the fragrant Mal the Big Daddy?

Wait for it Sym...............INDEPENDENT. No political party only people working to benefit the Town.

Well done Malcolm, err.... I mean your mayorship!

Mare can be short for nightmare although that tends to be more pertinent if your christian name is Boris.

 

I am sure this will not be the case for Bedlington.

:wave:

Thank you Maggie, yes I think congratulations are in order. Congratulations Malcolm, I hope you are able to fulfill some of your goals, if not all! and enjoy your tenure as mayor, make sure you enjoy doing it because when its not fun it becomes hard work! those chains are alright as long as there isn't a ball attached.

The people of Bedlington are lucky to have you in their corner, good luck.

Thanks everyone for your well wishes, the job started last week! I have now got to go and sort litter bins out and concrete pads.........oh the glamour!

Exciting stuff!

Perhaps this may be relevant.

Hope not

Yep but sometimes you get to bite the hand with the shovel in!

How are the bins coming on malc? I'm keeping chewing this gum until I get council approval where to dispose of it
