Agree with you on that one Tony, but they don't have much to beat, there are SEVEN regulars who turn up for the Town Council Meetings, the people of Bedlington either aren't interested or have seen through the Labour Majority that rule the Council, my bet is its the latter. It's quite comical watching them "wink, nod and kick" each other every time a vote is being taken. I'll do a head count on the night and let you know Thursday AM how many turn up. As you would say, lol...
